2. Acrylic resin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_resin

   Acrylic resin is a common ingredient in latex paint (UK: "emulsion paint"). Latex paints with a greater proportion of acrylic resin offer better stain protection, greater water resistance, better adhesion, greater resistance to cracking and blistering, and resistance to alkali cleaners compared to those with vinyl.

3. Stain-blocking primer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stain-blocking_primer

   Stain-blocking primers are used to cover stains such as watermarks, nicotine (actually tar), markers, smoke, and prevent them bleeding through newly applied layers of paint. They also provide adhesion over problematic surfaces, giving better film leveling, and durability. Commonly used stain-blocking paints include acrylic and alkyd.

4. Primer (paint) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primer_(paint)

   Primer reduces the number of paint coats needed for good coverage and even color. A thin layer of paint may still be permeable to water. Water can permeate into the wood and cause warping, mildew, or dry rot. Primer improves the waterproofing of the finish. [4] Primers are not used as part of a wood stain treatment because they obscure the wood ...

5. Wood finishing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_finishing

   The bleaches used to remove unwanted fungal stains from wood include two-part peroxide bleach and solutions of sodium hypochlorite. [27] The former is particularly effective at removing the natural colour of wood before it is recoloured with pigmented stains or dyes. [27] Oxalic acid is particularly effective at removing iron stains from wood. [27]

6. Wood preservation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_preservation

   Apart from structural wood preservation measures, there are a number of different chemical preservatives and processes (also known as timber treatment, lumber treatment or pressure treatment) that can extend the life of wood, timber, and their associated products, including engineered wood. These generally increase the durability and resistance ...

7. Varnish - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varnish

   Violin varnishing is a multi-step process involving some or all of the following: primer, sealer, ground, color coats, and clear topcoat. Some systems use a drying oil varnish as described below, while others use spirit varnish made of resin(s) dissolved in alcohol. Touchup in repair or restoration is only done with solvent based varnish.

8. Danish oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danish_oil

   Danish oil is a wood finishing oil, often made of tung oil or polymerized linseed oil. Because there is no defined formulation, its composition varies among manufacturers. Danish oil is a hard drying oil, meaning it can polymerize into a solid form when it reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere. It can provide a hard-wearing, often water ...

9. Paint sealant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_sealant

   Salt may be a factor that many protective sealants do not defend against, and thus salt water may break down protective layers to get at the metal and corrode it. Paint sealant works by filling into the pores and irregular surface of the body thereby creating a smooth finish on top. The way it helps is it denies a sticking surface to foreign ...
