Resin flowing from wood after varnish application

Causes of the Problem:

• This situation is a natural process arising from the structure of the wood. Some types of wood, such as cedar, contain dense resin.

Solution:

• To improve the visuality, the parts where the resin flows can be wiped with cellulosic thinner and retouched after the patting sandpaper.
• If resin flow is observed on the surface after the wood varnish application; It should wait for a while for all the resin in the knots and resin pouches to flow and dry on the surface. Afterward, the dried resin should be removed with a spatula and the resin residue on the surface should be wiped off with cellulosic thinner. If necessary, this area can be retouched after the sanding.
• The best time to clean resin is when it is cold. When this application is made in hot weather, the resin can contaminate the surface.
