Protect your work and keep the tone.

Brite Tone Instrument Finish is a high solids, super-hard, scratch-resistant, clear finish with exceptional clarity. It is by far CrystaLac's hardest and clearest top coat. Brite Tone will build to a high depth very quickly due to its high solids content and will not leave a blue cast on dark exotic wood. Adheres to wood, metal, plastic and glass.

Instructions

  1. Environment: for best results, apply Brite Tone in a room temperature between 68-75ºF.
  2. Sealing: Prior to using Brite Tone, we recommend using a CrystaLac sealer to enhance the natural colors in the wood and to minimize grain raise.
  3. Dry Time: Wait 4 hours between each coat. You do not need to sand between coats.
  4. Cure Time: Since it is waterborne and doesn’t rely on harsh chemicals, Brite Tone can take up to 30 days to fully cure.
