This standard covers the skills and knowledge required to apply hand-finishing polishes, waxes, oils, varnishes and lacquers to wood products. This involves preparing finishes for use, applying finishes to surfaces and working in ways which maintain your own and others’ safety.
Outcomes
Performance Criteria
You must be able to:
1. comply with health and safety requirements and procedures at all times
2. obtain specifications and requirements of the items to be produced following standard operating procedures
3. obtain equipment and materials required to carry out the job following standard operating procedures
4. check equipment is set up correctly and in good working order following standard operating procedures and any manufacturer’s instructions
5. check all materials required are to specification and free from faults following standard operating procedures
6. use effective techniques and appropriate tools for the kind of materials and type of surface following standard operating procedures
7. check spray guns are free from contamination before charging with materials following standard operating procedures
8. apply spray from a suitable distance from workpieces following standard operating procedures
9. adjust spraying techniques as necessary to achieve required finishes following standard operating procedures
10. apply finishes uniformly to required build and depth of colour following standard operating procedures
11. allow sufficient drying times between multiple coats following standard operating procedures
12. clear surfaces of excess materials at each stage of the process following standard operating procedures
13. check finished products meet to specification and correct any faults following standard operating procedures
14. process completed work to next stage following standard operating procedures
15. store any unused materials following standard operating procedures
16. dispose of any waste materials following standard operating procedures
17. describe relevant health and safety responsibilities
