Available in all sizes, from small packages to varnish a table to larger ones. This makes it possible to tackle both small and large jobs.
Avis Interior Lacquer PU Aqua Satin
Satin used to be very popular; these days, it depends on what customers prefer. We offer satin in our collection but only in 1-litre packaging.

High gloss is rarely ordered but is well-suited for customers who want an extremely shiny finish and optimal protection, such as a glossy tabletop.
Frequently Asked Questions about this Product
Which brush do I need?
Choosing the right brush is crucial; you don’t want bristles in the paint or uneven layers. The right brush ensures optimal absorption and distribution of the paint without leaving impurities behind. We recommend the VP All-round Synthetic Brush, as it features selected synthetic fibres that promote a smooth and even finish.
Which roller do I need?
A quality roller is also key for achieving a neat and even result. The roller greatly influences the appearance of the paint. We consider the VP Nylon Roller to be the ideal roller for this product. This high-quality, professional roller delivers a seamless and flawless finish.
What is Avis?
AVIS has a long and rich history. Founded in 1701, the brand is named after the Avis family from the Zaan region, where many paint brands originated, although most have disappeared. The Avis family began producing linseed oil from flaxseed in 1724 at the windmill “De Koperslager,” destroyed by fire in 1964. By then, production had already moved to a modern factory in Westzaan in the late 19th century. During the early 20th century, the company also occupied several premises along Amsterdam’s Brouwersgracht.
When should I use this varnish?
Avis Interior Lacquer PU Aqua is primarily used for treating tables and furniture. It protects against unsightly glass rings and stains that might otherwise soak into the surface. This PU Aqua varnish is both wear and scratch-resistant and easy to clean. Often referred to as “varnish” because of its high wear and scratch resistance, it is suitable for interior applications.
Avis Interior Lacquer PU Aqua for tables
Perfect for protecting tables and table tops, being wear-resistant and effective against stains and rings.
Avis Interior Lacquer PU Aqua for furniture
Furniture is also well-protected with this varnish. Matte or satin finishes provide optimal protection.
Avis Interior Lacquer PU Aqua for wood
This varnish is compatible with most wood types, ideal for indoor skirting boards and doors.
Advantages of water-based paint
For interior projects, acrylic paint is the ideal choice. It doesn’t produce odours when applied and doesn’t cause colour yellowing because no turpentine is used. Want to know more about the difference between acrylic and alkyd paint? Read our blog.
What is the coverage per m²?
Avis lacquers typically cover 12 to 14 m² per litre. However, most painters achieve a coverage of around 10 to 12 m² per litre. It’s better to have a little extra paint than to fall short.
Pre-treatment
Before starting your project, we recommend thoroughly cleaning the surface, for example, with St Marc Degreaser. Whether the surface is concrete, wood, stone, or wallpaper, cleaning ensures maximum adhesion.
Which primer do I need?
Primer and basecoat serve the same purpose—they enhance adhesion for subsequent layers. They also reduce the absorbency of surfaces, yielding more coverage per litre of paint. The result is cost-saving and a top-quality finish. Learn when to use basecoat in our blog. For this product, we recommend Avis Multiprimer.
What is the ideal application temperature?
The ideal application temperature is between 5 and 30 degrees Celsius, with a maximum humidity of 85%. Also, consider the comfort of the painter—it’s not pleasant to paint in 30-degree heat. Under optimal conditions (20°C), this varnish is recoatable after 3 hours and touch-dry in 30 minutes.
Which colours can be mixed?
We can mix any transparent colour using our mixing system. Choose your colour with our selector or contact us. We use official mixing machines and pigments exclusively for Avis paints and varnishes.
