Frequently Asked Questions about this product
Which brush should I use?
For applying alkyd paint and lacquer, it is important to choose the right brush. The right brush ensures the lacquer is applied evenly with optimal absorption and release. We recommend the VP Gold Mix Fibre brush, which contains the right fibres for the best result. This brush is made up of a combination of traditional pig bristles and selected synthetic fibres.
Which roller should I use?
Using a roller ensures a smooth and even finish. You don’t want to be picking lint out of your paintwork. Absorption and release are key. We recommend using the Copenhagen Pro Lacquer Roller or the Anza Felt Roller.
When should I use it?
Sigma S2U Gloss is most suitable for protecting doors and window frames against weather conditions. Sigma S2U Gloss is an easy-to-use product for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.
Advantages of alkyd lacquer
For outdoor work, alkyd lacquer is the ideal product. This lacquer is more resistant to weather conditions, giving it a longer lifespan compared to water-based products.
What is the difference between Sigma S2U and Sigma Contour?
Sigma is a large and well-known brand worldwide. Sigma sells its products under different names in different countries. Sigma S2U is the Dutch line, while Sigma Contour is the name used in Germany for products with the same properties and quality.
What is the coverage per m²?
The coverage of Sigma lacquers is 12 to 16 m² per litre. However, our experience shows that most painters achieve a coverage of 10 to 12 m² per litre with Sigma lacquer. It’s better to have a little too much paint than too little.
