DD Double Coat Karaat
At a glance
- High gloss transparent varnish
- High scratch resistance
- Teak, mahogany, oak colour effect
DD Double Coat Karaat has been specially developed for levelling and touching up discoloured wood or to nuance the colour of new wood. The double coat paint has high filling capacity, making it very suitable for smoothing out small irregularities. Thanks to its excellent properties, the lacquer is easy to apply with a brush, roller or spraying equipment.
Before applying the coat, the old paint layers should be cleaned thoroughly. We also recommend roughing up the surface with 120-180-grit sandpaper. Please note that DD Double Coat Karaat cannot be used with old paint layers consisting of one component paint. Apply 1-2 layers of DD Double Coat Karaat and then top with DD Paint Double UV.

Gloss level indicates how much light a dry paint or coating reflects and how the finished surface looks.
- Matt: little reflection and a subdued appearance.
- Satin: a gentle sheen between matt and high gloss.
- High gloss: stronger reflections and a more pronounced colour, although surface imperfections may become more visible.
Gloss can be measured in gloss units (GU) at a specified angle. Terms such as matt and satin do not necessarily mean exactly the same thing across manufacturers. Substrate condition and application also affect the final appearance.

Mixing ratio indicates how much of each component is needed, for example resin (A) and hardener (B). A ratio of 100:50 by weight means 100 grams of A to 50 grams of B; by volume you might use millilitres. Weight and volume ratios are not necessarily the same because the components may have different densities. Accurate measuring is important for proper curing.
- 3:1 (by weight)

Consumption or coverage describes how much product is needed for a given surface area. Consumption may be stated in g/m² or kg/m², while coverage is often given in m²/L or m²/kg. A consumption of 0.2 kg/m² means a theoretical 200 grams per square metre. Actual use depends on film thickness, substrate absorbency, application method and waste.
- Approximately 125 g/m²
-
A specific thinner that can be used, where permitted, to adjust a product's application properties or viscosity. The correct thinner and maximum quantity depend on the product. Incorrect thinning can affect coverage, drying and curing.

Working time is the period during which a product remains workable after mixing or activation, usually given in minutes at a specified temperature, often 20 °C. With reactive resins, the chemical reaction also continues in the mixing container, and larger quantities or higher temperatures can shorten this time. Working time is different from gel time and full curing time.
- Approximately 60 minutes
