Mipa WBS Cleaner is used before coating work to remove contamination that can disturb adhesion on prepared wood and existing sound finishes.
Guided wood finishing
Wooden shelving needs a clean, lightly keyed surface and a finish that levels neatly without making the shelves look heavy. This guide focuses on indoor wooden shelves where a tidy silk matt coating, careful dust removal and correct water based thinning matter more than aggressive build.
Mipa WBS Cleaner is used before coating work to remove contamination that can disturb adhesion on prepared wood and existing sound finishes.
Mipa WBS deionised water is the correct thinning and processing water for the specified WBS wood finish where adjustment is needed.
Mipa WPA 2100-40 is a water based 1K PU acrylic finish for common wood types, suitable for brushing, rolling, curtain coating or flow coating.
Remove objects, adhesive residue and dust, then clean the surface so grease and old polish cannot sit under the new coating.
Matte down glossy old paint or varnish with fine abrasive work and remove all sanding dust before applying the finish.
Use Mipa WBS deionised water only where the WBS finish needs approved adjustment for brushing or rolling.
Brush or roll along the shelf length and keep edges light so paint does not gather on corners or shelf fronts.
Allow the finish to dry and harden before books, boxes or decorative objects are placed back on the shelves.
Choose WPA 2100-40 when the job needs a clean silk matt finish on common wood surfaces with brush or roller application.
Keep old paint only when it is sound, well adhered and evenly sanded, then clean before coating.
Paint loose shelves flat on supports when possible. That makes the front edge easier to coat cleanly and reduces runs on the underside.
