Preparation

Timber surfaces must be suitably prepared, clean, sound and dry.

• Resinous deposits should be removed
• Degrease any exposed bare timber surface by wiping with a cloth dampened with methylated spirits

New Timber: Any non preservative treated softwood timber should be treated with two liberal coats of , paying particular attention to end grains, allowing 24 hours drying time between coats and before overcoating with Sadolin Quick Drying Woodstain. Do not use Sadolin Quick Drying Woodstain on substrates which have had water-repellent preservative treatments applied. Where possible, the first coat should be applied all round prior to fixing.

Base Stained Joinery : Lightly abrade, in the direction of the grain - Do not break through the surface coating - Remove all dust 

Note: Where there is localised damage, or deterioration has occurred as a result of exposure of the factory coating for longer than 3 months, affected areas should be thoroughly sanded back to a sound substrate and recoated. If a coloured base stain is required in order to match the existing factory applied coating, use Sadolin Quick Drying Woodstain in the most appropriate colour before proceeding as described above. To ensure optimum durability and uniformity of appearance, we recommend finishing with 2 full coats of Sadolin Quick Drying Woodstain.“Knotting agents” should not be used with Sadolin translucent woodstain systems - Fillers specifically designed for use with timber such as should be used for making good any minor surface defects, imperfections and open joints etc. General or All Purpose fillers are not suitable - Only use non-ferrous screws, nails and fixings

Application

We recommend always following the manufacturer's instructions found on the tin. It is recommended that a small test area is applied before treating the entire surface to ensure compatibility.

Note: Do not apply if there is a risk of rain or bad weather conditions. Protect from frost and rain until dry.

Aftercare & Storage

The need for maintenance is indicated by a lightening in colour, reduction in sheen as the coating erodes, and a loss of water repellence.

• All defective coatings should be completely removed
• Any grey denatured exposed timber surfaces must be thoroughly sanded back to clean, bright timber
• Organic growths must be removed and infected surfaces should be treated with a suitable fungicidal solution
• Remaining sound surfaces should be cleaned using a warm water and mild detergent and rinsed thoroughly with clean water
• Bare timber should be patch primed with one or more coats of Sadolin Quick Drying Woodstain in the appropriate colour to match existing colour
• On weathered/eroded surfaces apply a further coat of overall and allow to dry
• Finish with 1 or 2 coats of Sadolin Quick Drying Woodstain as required
