Varnishes are materials widely used for covering surfaces for decorative and protective purposes.Different varnishes are offered to meet specific application requirements. Traditional Lacquers have been  and are still used for woodworking applications. Conversion Varnishes (CV), aka catalyzed conversion varnishes or catalyzed varnishes, are commonly used on woodworks but also for other applications in place of traditional lacquers and other finishes. They are lacquers containing a hardening agent added to the varnish prior to painting, providing additional durability when combined with the heat-curing process. A conversion varnish is chemically cured, fast-drying and consists of 40-60% solids. Polyurethane finishes are also used as they are often considered highly durable finishes. Polyurethane can resist scratching, heat, alkali, and acids and wear better than many other finishes, including lacquer.

Varnishes are offered by their respective manufacturers under their own brands in different packaging options. For additional information please consult the supplied documentation and information included in the Product Description section.

Some of the offered varnishes and their matching thinners are listed and briefly presented below. For non-listed products please contact us.

Dyes and Pigments represent the two principal types of colorants widely used in industrial and consumer products. They impart color through different methods.  

The main difference between the two is that dyes/dyestuffs provide their color by attaching to a substrate, or by dissolving in a solvent like water, alcohol, or oil, through which the dye becomes part of the material chemical solution. Pigments provide color without any required interaction with another substance. Pigments are insoluble powders that exist as suspended particles in a binder. Other differences include their application mechanism, the typically transparent appearance of dyes versus opacity of pigments, their durability (fastness) with pigments being generally more fade-resistant and chemically stable than less resistant to fading and washing dyes, but also the field of application with solvent dyes (specifically oil-soluble) and water-soluble dyes dyes commonly used on fuels (petrol, oil), lubricants, greases, candles, plastics (PS, ABS, PC), textiles, food, leather, hair color, wood stains, or varnishes while pigments on paints (acrylic, oil), inks for inkjet printers, plastics, cosmetics, and printing. 

Solvent dyes (specifically oil-soluble) are non-ionic organic compounds dissolving in oils, hydrocarbon solvents, waxes, and fats. Widely used in fuels (petrol, oil) for regulatory purposes but also on lubricants, greases, plastics for distinguishing brands, conformance to precise specifications set by OEMs, etc.They are resistant to water and ideal for non-polar, transparent, or oily substrates. Water-soluble dyes dissolve in water and alcohols providing intense, deep colors to hydrophilic materials, and are commonly encountered in  textiles, paper, hair coloring, cosmetics, and food coloring.

Sourced from quality producers, liquid and powder solvent dyes are now offered as part of AVIATIONEU NEW ERA product lines in different packaging options. Our oil and water soluble dyes are intended for use as cost effective solutions for numerous applications instead of competitive brands. In general, liquid dyes are supplied ready to use  (without prior pre-dissolving need) and consist a preferred choice for quick, even coloring whereas our powder dyes are often selected for their higher concentration, longer shelf life for storage, dry mixing or transport convenience (non-hazmat regulated).
