PREPARE: Lightly sand the unfinished coffee table with #120-grit sandpaper for better product adhesion. Wipe with a lint-free rag. Stir or shake material thoroughly before and occasionally during use.

APPLY: Open the can of Varathane Wood Accelerator and stir thoroughly before and occasionally during use. We recommend applying the product with a synthetic bristle brush or foam brush. Allow Weathered Wood Accelerator to sit on the wood for 30 minutes to 1 hour for the final effect. 

FINISH: A topcoat should be applied for the best protection. Wait 2 hours for Weathered Wood Accelerator to dry.

TIP: For a lighter effect, apply product and wipe away immediately or lightly sand the finish with fine grit sandpaper once it is dry. To darken, a second coat can be applied after 1 hour.
