WOOD TRIM ON WINE RACKS

Your U-Line Wine Captain

®

Model is equipped with a natural wood

trim on the wine racks for appearance and durability. The wood
trim has been coated at the factory with a clear vinyl sealer, which
will adequately protect the wood in normal usage.

To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of your
Wine Captain

®

, the wine rack wood trim MUST be

removed from the unit for staining and/or finishing.
Allow stain/finish to dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours
per coat) in accordance with the stain/finish manufac-
turer’s instructions prior to re-installing the wood trim
inside the cabinet of the Wine Captain

®

. Failure to do so

may cause the inner liner of the unit to have a perma-
nent odor, which is not covered by the warranty.

You have 3 options regarding the wood trim on the wine racks. 
(1) You can leave as is, (2) add a final finish coat or (3) you may
stain the wood trim. The final finish coat was not applied at the fac-
tory so that the wood trim could be stained. 

YOU CANNOT STAIN

THE WOOD TRIM ONCE YOU APPLY THE FINAL FINISH.

Review

the following guidelines when staining and or sealing the wood to
ensure proper adhesion and durability of the finish.

To add a final finish coat:

1.

Remove five racks with wood trim from unit, see RACK
REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.

2.

Remove screws securing wood trim to racks.

3.

Lightly scruff sand the molding with 280 grit 3M Tri-M-Ite sand-
paper.

4.

Remove sanding dust with a clean, dry cloth.

5.

Apply a thin coat of a clear protective finish; the factory-applied
seal is compatible with virtually all finishes. A low odor, water
clean up, quick drying finish such as Minwax Polycrylic is recom-
mended. Follow container label for directions.

6.

Lightly sand and reapply if desired.
