Classic 1 is used for natural wood tones. Other colour groups may start with Classic 2 instead; confirm the selected formula and schedule.

Finish the selected Classic coating system with Classic 3.
Natural wood tones use the Classic 1–2–3 sequence. Other colours may use Classic 2 followed by Classic 3. Follow the current colour-specific schedule.
