NEW VALSPORT WP- 4.1 AND WP- 8.1
Valspar Flooring has introduced new
Valsport WP- 4.1 Sealer and WP- 8.1
Finish—two eco-friendly durable oil
modified urethanes (OMU) for use on
gymnasium and athletic wood floors.
Both WP- 4.1 and WP- 8.1 have VOC
levels of <350 g/L, meeting air quality
mandates for all North American
regions, except southern California
counties under SCAQMD rule. Use of
these products can also help contribute
toward U.S Green Building Council’s
LEED sustainable building efforts.
Valsport WP- 4.1 Fast Dry 350
Sanding Sealer is a premium
polyurethane sealer that dries in as little as two hours to reduce time between
coats, while deeply penetrating into
woods for unmatched hardness underfoot. Designed to securely seal bare
wood floors and produce an optimum
clear surface for finish coats, it is formulated for the extreme demands of
heavy-traffic, high-impact sports hardwood floors. Approximate coverage is
400-500 square feet per gallon on build
coats, and 300-400 on bare wood.
Valsport WP- 8.1 Sports Floor 350
Finish, in addition to its VOC compliance, offers superior gloss, excellent
rubber burn resistance, and overall
better film hardness that extends floor
life. By design, it ages naturally to
golden amber, beautifying the wood as
it protects it. WP- 8.1 is available in one
and five-gallon containers with
approximate coverage of 400-500
square feet per gallon.

through the natural aging and oxidation
in outdoor weathering conditions.
Depending on the technique, there
are two different types of finishes
achievable. For bright green, or mint
green finishes, the Patina Green liquid
can be applied directly onto a clean copper, brass or bronze surface using
brush, dipping or spray. Or, for slightly
muted tones that are somewhat more
opaque, the Patina Green solution can
be applied as a secondary treatment
