Turino Post Cat Clear Base is a Turino post-cat conversion varnish from ML Campbell designed as a high solids, superior performance pigmented coating system, so each coat lays down more material and builds film quickly for demanding woodworking projects. This low odor finish helps keep shop air more manageable during spraying or brushing in cabinet and fixture work. The fast dry to sand time lets you move from coat to sand to next coat in less time, supporting tighter project schedules. Excellent hiding means the system covers underlying color or substrate efficiently, reducing the number of coats required on kitchen and bathroom cabinets, furniture, and display fixtures. As a clear base in a semigloss sheen, it supports premium appearance on visible surfaces where a smooth, refined look is required while still delivering the performance of a conversion varnish system.
Turino post-cat conversion varnish is positioned as a high solids coating, so each applied coat builds a substantial protective film on kitchen and bathroom cabinets, furniture, and display fixtures. That higher build reduces how many coats are typically necessary to reach targeted film thickness on doors, drawer fronts, and casework. The fast dry to sand characteristic means the film reaches a sandable state quickly, allowing efficient denibbing and refinement between coats without extended downtime. Because the coating provides excellent hiding, color and substrate irregularities are masked with fewer passes, supporting consistent appearance across large cabinet banks and multi-piece furniture assemblies. Its semigloss finish level produces a balanced sheen that supports a premium appearance while still aligning with the performance profile expected from a post-catalyzed conversion varnish system.
Turino Post Cat Clear Base is ideal for use on kitchen and bathroom cabinets, where its durable performance and premium appearance help finished doors, frames, and panels stand up to daily use. On furniture, the conversion varnish film supports surfaces that see frequent handling, such as tabletops, end panels, and drawer fronts. Display fixtures also benefit from the system, since high solids and excellent hiding help keep retail or commercial fixtures looking consistent under strong lighting. The M.L. Campbell laboratory formulated Turino to meet or exceed the required performance level established by KCMA for finishes, so it aligns with expectations for cabinetry exposed to heat, moisture, and routine use. Turino has been tested utilizing ASTM and KCMA test methods, tying its lab performance directly to recognized industry benchmarks.
Turino post-cat conversion varnish carries an Excellent rating of 5 for Print Resistance, so the finish resists imprinting from items resting on the surface, which helps tabletops, shelves, and cabinet tops maintain a smooth profile. An Excellent rating of 5 for Hot and Cold Check Resistance means the film has been evaluated to handle temperature swings without excessive cracking, important around kitchen appliances and bathroom areas. The Excellent rating of 5 for Cross Hatch indicates strong adhesion performance, supporting long-term bond of the coating to properly prepared substrates. Blocking performance of 6-8 hours with an Excellent rating of 5 means opposing coated surfaces are evaluated to resist sticking after that time window, which is significant for cabinet doors and drawer fronts that contact face frames. An Excellent rating of 5 for Wet Heat Resistance reflects performance under moist heat exposure, relevant near dishwashers or bathroom steam. Edge Soak with an Excellent rating of 5 speaks to how well the film resists moisture at edges, which helps cabinet and furniture edges hold up in service.
