Zinsser Bulls Eye Shellac, Clear, Product No. 00301

How to apply Zinsser Bulls Eye™ Finish & Sealer to your wood floors & furniture.

Bulls Eye Clear Shellac gives wood a clear, natural glow with a lustrous mid-gloss finish that will not yellow or darken with age.  You can use this product on any interior surface where you would like to have a golden-tone finish - even masonry and metal.

Remember to stir well before using.  By applying several thin coats, you will find it much easier to apply and will look better than thick heavy coats.

Below are steps to use Zinnser Bull Eye Shellac on wood floors.

Step 1:
Apply one thin and even coat using a quality brush, lint free cloth or sprayer and let dry 1 hour before sanding with 220 or finer grit sandpaper.

Step 2:
Once dried, remove all dust and apply second coat.  Allow any following coats to dry at least 1 hour before sanding lightly and recoating.

• You can also use Zinsser Bulls Eye Shellac on doors, trims, paneling, cabinets and furniture:  Apply 1 or 2 coats, then let dry before sanding with 220 grit or finer sandpaper to ensure a smooth finish.

• Use Zinsser Bulls Eye Shellac as a Protective Sealer for your tools, golf clubs, toys and more!  This product will even stick to glass and ceramic tile.

• Use Zinsser Bulls Eye Shellac as an Odor Sealer as well.  Two coats of the shellac will seal odors in bare (or coated) drywall, masonry, plaster, woodwork and furniture.

Each gallon of Zinsser 00301 Bulls Eye Shellac covers approximately 400-600 sq. ft. per gallon.  It may vary due to coats used and porosity of different surfaces.  It also dries to the touch in 30 minutes or less.  Wait one hour before recoating.

Step 1:  Remove tank lid.  Disconnect the flapper chain/linkage from the existing lever.  Unthread nut from old lever.  Remove old lever from tank.

Black Jack Driveway Crack Filler

Easy to use pourable driveway crack filler.

Black Jack Driveway Crack Filler

Now as the winter and cold weather is approaching, we start to notice all the potholes forming as we drive on highways and roads.  Nothing is more annoying when it happens in your own driveway.  A crack starts in a small area and then starts to get bigger and bigger.  Before you know it, you may be forming potholes in your driveway.  If you start to notice small cracks, you can use a crack filler and stops the cracks from getting bigger.

The Black Jack Driveway Crack Filler is a product made by Gardner Gibson.  They specialize in blacktop repair and roof coatings.  It fills and seals cracks that are up to 1/2" wide.  A half inch doesn't seem that big but when its happening in blacktop, it's very wide.  After applying it you will see that it dries to a black, rubber seal, providing a crack free surface prior to adding extra sealer.

What's also great is that you can use it straight from the gallon itself.  You must shake the gallon well to mix the contents.  After that, you use the included spout (on the underside of the gallon cap) and squeeze the contents into the crack.  If you have a deep crack you can partially fill it with sand and then add the crack filler on top.

One gallon of the Black Jack Driveway Crack Filler fills 200-225 linear feat.  It also weighs just about 10 pounds.

Now is the time to start sealing your cracks, before it gets too cold out and more crack will form!
