Mohawk No-Blush Plus Retarder Spray Can 13 oz – Reflows Lacquer

Restore Clarity to Your Wood Finishes

Mohawk No-Blush Plus Retarder is a solvent-based spray designed to address lacquer blush caused by humidity, temperature shifts, and seasonal weather changes. The formula reflows the lacquer surface to help trapped moisture escape, potentially reducing hazy white patches and cloudiness on wood finishes.

This product shines on common household projects, including wood furniture, kitchen cabinets, hardwood flooring, molding, and door trim. It is not compatible with water-based coatings or with more resistant finishes such as polyurethane or conversion varnish, so be sure your project uses a compatible coating before proceeding.

What to Expect and How It Helps

Use a fine mist from a comfortable distance to encourage a gradual reflow. You may notice the finish respond as it softens slightly and the blushing effect begins to diminish. Start with a small test area to gauge how your specific finish reacts before proceeding to larger sections.
