Overview

A quick-drying preservative treatment ideal for interior and exterior bare and new timber. Apply prior to the application or exterior stains and paints as it offers long-lasting protection that resists fungal decay & surface mould. The easily absorbed formulation allows all surfaces to be over-coated in as little as 24 hours to ensure exterior wood is protected in minimal time.

• Fast drying
• Applied by brush or dipping
• Pre-treatment prior to stains and paints
• Resists fungal decay & surface mould

Preparation

The surface to be treated must be suitably prepared, clean sound and dry, and free from any contaminates that may affect the absorption of the preservative treatment.

• All previous coatings should be completely removed.
• Grey timber must be mechanically sanded back to a bare clean surface.
• Remove resinous deposits with a scrapper, any remaining resinous residues should be removed using clean, lint-free cloths, dampened with methylated spirits.

Application

It is recommended to perform a test patch on a small area of the surface to be painted to ensure you are happy with the finished results. Do not apply if there is a risk of rain, or when temperatures are below 8°C.

• Apply by brush or short time immersion (dipping or deluging, for 3-10 minutes).
• Supplied ready to use, do not thin.
• Apply 2 liberal coats, until saturation is reached and the wood will no longer absorb any more preservative treatment.
• Pay special attention to end grains and joints.
• Allow 24 hours between applications.
• For full weather protection apply a suitable paint, stain or varnish once the final coat is dry.

Always follow the manufacturer's instructions found on the tin.
