Italian Golden Ground Brown

From 43,00 

Italian Golden Ground Brown A+B consists of a water-based ground designed to protect the wood. It is composed by two products, that work together to colour the wood fibres and protect them from damage and ageing. It is specifically designed to colour the natural wood of classical musical instruments when a dark background is desired before varnishing.  

Italian Golden Ground Brown A+B must be applied before any other ground or finishing product. It is a perfect base for oil or alcohol varnishing and can also be used with other types of synthetic varnishes. 

Before use, it is recommended to test on pieces or parts of wood like those of the instrument to be treated to predict the colour tone that can be achieved in each case.

The two components, A and B, can be applied using a sponge, ensuring even application for uniform product penetration across the surface. In the case of spruce wood, penetration is faster, so it is advisable to squeeze out the sponge well before applying it to the wood to avoid uneven penetration of the product.

Component A is used first and should be allowed to dry under UV light for 1-2 hours. Once removed from UV light, it should be allowed to air dry for an additional 2 hours before applying the following product.

Once this first coat has dried, component B is applied similarly 

This product provides protective components that prevent subsequent degradation of the wood colour and unifies the colour hues of the front and back parts of the instrument. Allow it to air dry for 3-4 hours.

Once dry, it is recommended to rub the wood with a clean cloth to remove any raised grain caused by the water-based products.
