ColorTone Aerosol White Vinyl Sealer

The easiest way to spray a professional finish!

ColorTone® Sealers have a high solids content for quickly building a finish and provide excellent adhesion for lacquer topcoats. They're are flexible and compatible with many different finish types. We recommend Vinyl Sealer as the perfect all around sealer that works well for any project. It's moisture-resistant and works for opaque, translucent, and metallic finishes, as well as refinishing projects and oily woods.

For spraying a transparent finish on new wood, many use Sanding Sealer as a base, followed with ColorTone lacquer.

Some builders will spray a coat of White Vinyl Sealer to create an opaque undercoat for a metallic or solid color finish.

13-ounce spray can.

How many cans do you need?

Electric guitar neck: 2 to 3 cans lacquer (no sealer needed)

Solid body electric: 1 can sealer + 3 to 4 cans lacquer

Acoustic or archtop guitar: 1 can sealer + 4 to 6 cans lacquer

Mandolin or dulcimer: 1 can sealer + 3 to 4 cans lacquer

Banjo rim and neck: 1 can sealer + 3 to 4 cans lacquer

Ukulele: 1 can sealer + 2 to 3 cans lacquer

Number of cans needed may vary depending on how heavy the coats are applied, number of coats, and desired thickness on your instrument.

Use warm lacquer, not cold! Pro shops spray heated lacquer because cold lacquer spatters, requiring extra sanding. You should warm up your aerosol lacquer too, simply soak them in a sink of warm tap water. We recommend spraying multiple thin coats, in a low humidity environment.
