Ronseal UTVMC250 250ml Ultra Tough Internal Clear Mattcoat Varnish

Product Information

We have a log fire in our living room..we have only used it a handful of times. We never used to have any problems with it until we painted the wall around it with a mould resistant paint as we was getting a bubbling yellow mould type thing on the walls around it. Ever since we done this, when lighting the fire and once it gets hot it gives off a very strong plastic burning smell…could this be caused by the mould resistant paint we used? Also, could this be the reason for the yellow bubbling on the walls?

Heat-resistant Clear Finish? - Rockler Woodworking and Hardware

There are many different types of coating paints or varnishes for wood which provide instant heat protection for wood. Their easy availability, ease of use and being relatively cheap is what makes them the best method to give any type of wood decent heat resistance. A traditional way to seal and protect wooden surfaces whilst achieving a sympathetic natural finish. Adding varnish is not mandatory, but doing so can put one more heat-resistant layer on the painting. That said, if you feel like the varnish will mess with the painting’s look, avoid it. Another of our Top USA Brands brings us a Ceramic Engine Enamel that provides a beautiful factory-look finish that is super-durable and will withstand temperatures up to 650°F (343°C), this high temp ceramic coating is the highest temp range in the industry. Developed using the latest ceramic nano-technology integrated with silicone alkyds, this is the new standard in engine coatings. Each colour is replicated after the original colour for that deep rich factory look. Can be brushed on or sprayed on and is available in 946ml tins in the following colours:

Can I use normal paint behind a wood burning stove?

If the fireplace is active then you will need a paint to resist temperatures that are higher than a normal, decorative topcoat can handle, such as our fireplace surround paints that perform up to 300°C. You want a glossy surface based on the Q which simplifies things but just to highlight this for future searchers: regardless of the eventual finish you want buy gloss anyway. A reduced-gloss result (satin/semi-gloss as well as something more matt) is easily achieved on gloss varnish, and should not normally be done with successive applications of store-bought satin or matt varnish as this tends to hide too much of the colour and feature of the wood, and at worst can look cloudy. Different types of wood are classified as class A, B or C depending on their level of heat resistance. The heat resistance is calculated by calculating the time the wood takes to burn and the flame spread index. The time to burn takes into account the minutes it takes for the wood to start burning and the flame spread index measures the travel speed of the flame over the wooden surface. This would certainly be a job for fire rated board instead of paint, but we would advise requesting a visit from a local authority to advise on your situation as positioning a multi fuel stove under a means of escape would not be recommended.

So far all the searches I did on the internet and in the stores suggested it could be a polyurethane coating, but didn't bring up anything specific. Similarly, they suggested using a teak oil whenever heat-resistance was needed. Our advice would be to seek out local expert advice immediately – it does sound like it might be the bitumen smelling, but before you use the fire again you should have is professionally inspected to rule out any risk to health and property.

They simply provide a decorative finish that can withstand high temperatures that normal paints would not be able to tolerate. Using a normal paint to decorate these kinds of areas is not recommended as it can result in discolouration, failure by flaking/peeling/blistering, odours being omitted, and potentially creating a fire hazard.The species of Ironwood/hardwood is known as the wood with the highest level of heat resistance naturally. Azobe wood which is a type of ironwood has a higher ignition time so therefore it is known as the wood with the best heat resistance. It is top-grade if you are looking for the best quality fire or heat resistant wood. Compared to other paints, acrylic paints are considered to be less toxic. However, heating the paint at a high temperature might make the paint release toxic fumes. All paints come with VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and acrylic paint is no different (although the amount is less than other paints).

Finishing a table - scratch-resistant, heat-resistant

More on wiping varnish in this previous Answer with essentially a full description of the process from finishing guru Bob Flexner. Normally for really top-level protection a finish (even one as durable as conversion varnish) needs to be built up enough that it would fill the grain, even of oak which has the most pronounced grain of the common furniture woods.I am looking for something on wood. Saw above mentioned “A B Clear or something” for those looking for that product I just found it: General Finishes Arm-R-Seal comes in different finishes. It’s a wipe on product though. In answer to your question – Clean surfaces with Zinsser Universal Degreaser & Cleaner and then prime with 2 coats of Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3 Plus. Once dry, you can then use any of the paint systems recommended above in this blog post obviously minus any primer/undercoats recommended as you’ve already completed this stage with the Bulls Eye 1-2-3 Plus.
