Magnamax Precat clear satin lacquer is a clear high-performance, water white, hi-solids, fast dry, self sealing pre-catalyzed lacquer formulation that provides a professional cabinet and furniture finish in fewer passes. The formulation delivers exceptional resistance to water, solvents, and household chemicals, so finished kitchen and bathroom cabinets or office furniture hold up under regular cleaning and daily use. As a pre-catalyzed lacquer, it offers user-friendly handling while providing the high durability and performance of a post-cat, which supports demanding shop schedules that still need long-term finish performance. The HAPSfree formulation with ultra low formaldehyde meets world E-1 standards, which supports a better work environment during finishing. Magnamax Precat passes all KCMA tests and AWI System 2 Pre-catalyzed Lacquer and System 5 Conversion Varnish chemical and moisture resistance tests, giving finishers a verified system for cabinet and furniture jobs that require documented performance.
Magnamax Precat Water White Pre-catalyzed Clear Lacquer is described as user friendly, which helps finishers maintain consistent spray results across cabinet and furniture work. It is a furniture quality lacquer designed for use on kitchen and bathroom cabinets, so it suits high-moisture residential areas where finishes face repeated cleaning. The same formulation is designed for household or office furniture, allowing one system to cover multiple millwork and furniture lines in the shop. It is also designed for the wood parts of upholstered furniture, so finishing departments can keep a consistent look and performance across frames, exposed arms, and trim pieces using one clear satin system.
Magnamax Precat Water White Pre-catalyzed Clear Lacquer is specifically designed for kitchen and bathroom cabinets, which places it directly into jobs demanding both chemical and moisture resistance. That design intent extends to household furniture, supporting dining, bedroom, and occasional pieces that experience routine handling and cleaning. The product is also designed for office furniture, so casegoods, desks, and conference tables can share the same clear satin look across an installation. It is further designed for the wood parts of upholstered furniture, which brings a unified finish system to exposed arms, legs, and trim around fabric or leather components. Because Magnamax Precat passes all KCMA tests, it aligns with widely recognized cabinet performance criteria for finish durability under typical residential kitchen use. Passing AWI System 2 Pre-catalyzed Lacquer tests means the product fits within an Architectural Woodwork Institute finish system, supporting projects built around that specification. Passing AWI System 5 Conversion Varnish chemical and moisture resistance tests shows that this pre-catalyzed lacquer reaches chemical and moisture resistance levels associated with specified conversion varnish systems, giving spec-driven projects a vetted clear satin option.
Magnamax Precat is self sealing, so the same product can be used as both sealer and topcoat, reducing product changes and helping achieve consistent film build and sheen across cabinet runs. When a separate sealer is desired, the system allows the use of M.L. Campbell C115049 Magna Sand Sealer, which provides a designated undercoat option within the same brand family. The system can also use C156 11 Krystal Sealer as a sealer choice, giving shops flexibility to align with familiar Krystal-based sealer steps. Another option is C100 25 Vinyl S as a sealer, extending the system to a vinyl sealer stage when that construction is preferred. These named alternatives allow finishers to align the sealing step with existing shop standards while still finishing with Magnamax Precat as the clear satin topcoat. The HAPSfree formulation with ultra low formaldehyde supports ongoing shop air quality when spraying multiple cabinet or furniture pieces. Because Magnamax Precat offers the convenience and user-friendly features of pre-catalyzed lacquer while providing the high durability and performance of a post-cat, it supports repeatable finishing where both workflow speed and tested durability are required.
