EMTECH EM1000 WB Universal Sanding Sealer

EMTECH® EM1000 Universal Sanding Sealer is an excellent choice for the wood finishing professional seeking to highlight and enhance the wood grain, colors, and figure of their woodworking projects. Our sanding sealer is designed with a small resin particle size that enables it to penetrate deeply into the wood cell structure providing exceptional clarity and magnification of wood figure and grain patterns. Its water clear format makes it the perfect vehicle for tinting to create your own water based stain or toner base coat. EM1000 is a water based wood sanding sealer that dries quickly, sands easily, and has an ultra-low VOC formula. The wood sanding sealer can be applied by spray, brush, or roller application methods.


Our EM1000 Universal Sanding Sealer is specifically designed as a base/sealer coat under all our CLEAR WB topcoats and finishes. DO NOT USE EM1000 Universal Sanding Sealer underneath Emtech HSF5000 Primer/Surfacer/GrainFiller or EM6500 and EM6600 Pigmented Lacquers. Application of EM1000 as a base coat under these products will create a crackle/crazing effect in the finish.

EM1000: The Ultra-Low VOC Sanding Sealer and Color Vehicle

Water Clear Clarity in a 100% Water Based Formula

EM1000 Universal Sanding Sealer is a water based wood sanding sealer engineered to provide the wood finishing professional with a multi-functional base coat that can work as a clear sanding sealer, pre-stain wood conditioner, or color delivery vehicle. Our wood sanding sealer’s small resin particle size allows it to penetrate deep into the wood cell structure, providing a base coat that promotes stronger adhesion of the wood surface to the clear finish topcoats, like EM6000 Production LacquerEM7000hbl High Build Lacquer, and our EM8000cv Conversion Varnish

EM1000’s water clear formula will not color shift the wood grain and figure, unlike solvent or oil based sealers, which will amber the wood’s grain and change its color from the wood’s natural look and coloring. This feature gives the wood finishing professional ultimate control over the final color of wood grain and figure in the overall appearance of the woodworking project. Unlike oil-based sanding sealers, EM1000 Universal Sanding Sealer has an ultra-low VOC content, is fast drying, non-flammable, cleans up with soap and water, and makes storage and disposal safe and simple.

Sanding Sealer, Pre-Stain Conditioner, Custom Color Stain or Toner Vehicle

EM1000 Universal Sanding Sealer can be applied undiluted from the can or diluted up to 50% with distilled water to create a pre-stain conditioner to prevent blotching and uneven color absorption.  The sanding sealer is fast drying and sands easily, tightening wood grain fibers to create the perfect base coat for your ultra clear topcoats.

EM1000 Universal Sanding Sealer is water clear in the can, which will aid the wood finishing professional when adding water soluble tints and dyes to visualize and determine the direction of color strength and value without the distraction of an emulsion and flatteners found in most clear topcoats. EM1000 can be tinted with ANY water-soluble dye to create your own water based stain.  Custom toning/shading colors can be made when the EM1000 is tinted with a water based UTC (Universal Tint Colorants) .

Old guy furniture maker here.

If I couldn't brush it or rub it on I left it to the pro's, Built my first guitar and decided I'm going to spray finish it, started with Nitro & quickly decided that toxic environment wasn't for me. Using cheap HVLP guns I was able to apply great sealer coats & tint the EM1000 for some great color coats. The stuff is very forgiving a real great product.

Good sealer

As with every product I've tried from target coatings I am very pleased with my results. They are my go to company for waterborne products. The 1000 sealer was used at a 30% reduction to bring out the grain and seal it before several top coats of 6000. The sealer also helps mitigate color bleed from the redheart and purpleheart into the maple.

Nice sealer

Does a good job as a sanding sealer and improves natural appearance

This is a great sealer. I have used it straight and 50/50 mix with water. It easily sands off smooth and helps even out the 4000 stain and prep for filler or top coat.
