PLEASE NOTE: This product is for professional use only and is to be applied by approved HV'ART applicators. I acknowledge it is sold by weight (kg) and not by volume (litres), and that 1 kg is equivalent to approximately 900 ml. 

Why We Measure in Kilograms (kg):

Unlike many paints sold by volume (Liters), our HV’ART advanced range is measured by weight (KG). We use higher-quality, denser materials and a greater concentration of solid pigments and binders. This means you are getting more of the “good stuff” that stays on the wall, and less of the liquid that evaporates. Consequently, 1 kg of our dense, high-quality paint has a volume of approximately 900 ml.

This product is designed exclusively for professional use as part of the HV’ART Advanced system. It must be applied by approved HV’ART applicators only.

Prep & Application

Application

Applying HV’ART Advanced Lacquer Paint 90 Ceramic with a brush or roller is straightforward, but attention to detail ensures optimal results. The key to a flawless finish is a thin, uniform coat. Allow the coat to thoroughly cure before subsequent coats in the HV’ART system.

Brush & Roller Application: 

• For optimal results, apply two coats of Lacquer Paint using a brush, or roller and tip off with a gilder brush.
• Allow each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next.

For Spray Application: 

• Apply thin, even coats, avoiding excessive product build-up in a single application or wet-on-wet coating systems.
• For optimal results, use the product undiluted.
• Focus on achieving ideal application conditions that maximise product atomisation.

For those seeking the ultimate high-gloss effect, a mirror-like finish can be achieved through a precise process of application, sanding with a quality handheld sander, and re-application. This technique elevates the lacquer from a refined finish to a precise, polished surface that celebrates light and colour.

Drying

Drying time for HV’ART Advanced Lacquer Paint varies depending on film thickness and environmental conditions:

• Substrates with high extractive content or application in damp/cold weather may extend drying.
• Ensure adequate temperature and ventilation throughout the process.
• Insufficient drying conditions can lead to coating damage.
