Practical Applications

How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This wood preserver functions as a preparatory treatment applied before decorative finishes. It is used after surface cleaning and before painting or staining.

The process involves applying the preserver as a base layer to protect the wood substrate, then allowing proper drying before proceeding with topcoats or repairs.

How to Use

1. Preparation: Make sure the wood is clean and dry. A wood and decking cleaner can help remove grime. Remove coatings like varnish, paint, or stain. Cut out decayed timber and replace it with sound wood.
2. Shake Thoroughly: Agitate the tin well before use to keep the product consistent.
3. Application: Apply using a brush, spray, or by dipping, taking care to cover all surfaces. When spraying, opt for a coarse setting and avoid misting.
4. End Grain Treatment: For good absorption, submerge end grains in the preserver.
5. Coating Layers: Apply at least two coats, allowing 24 hours between applications for drying.
6. Final Touches: Once the second coat is dry, proceed with repairs or use waterproof wood glue as needed. During application, avoid contact with plastic, bitumen, or mastics.

Storage and Maintenance

• Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight to maintain its effectiveness.
• Keep the lid tightly sealed after each use to prevent evaporation or contamination.
• Clean application tools immediately after use to avoid hardening of the product.
