UV Cure Finishes

I am excited to learn more about UV cured finish systems. We have a large job that requires a UV cured water based clear finish so our shop is investing in a system of lights for our robot and a hand held system for things that can't be finished with a flat line system.

 I am really interested in the Simtec UV cured wood filler. With that product and UV cured finishes I can do a fully filled, high gloss, polished product in ONE DAY! This system is in use for flooring and guitars already. The lights are expensive and confusing with all the different wattage's and wave lengths of UV light.  We are doing some samples now with our coating manufacturer so hopefully I will have some pictures and videos soon.
