FAQs

Does this product really last five years?

Yes, provided it is applied to sound wood following the two-coat instruction on the packaging.

Can I use this on wood that has been painted before?

It is best suited for bare wood or wood previously treated with a similar, compatible wood stain.

How long does it take to dry?

Typically it is showerproof in about one hour, but allow longer drying times in humid or cooler weather.

Can I use this on decking?

No, this product is specifically formulated for vertical surfaces like fences and sheds, not for horizontal walking surfaces.

Is it safe for pets and plants?

Once fully dry, the finish is harmless, but try to avoid direct contact with plants during the wet application process.

Troubleshooting

Color looks uneven after one coat

This is normal; the first coat is designed to penetrate the wood. A second coat will provide the necessary opacity and consistent color depth.

The finish looks patchy

Ensure you have stirred the container thoroughly before and during application, as pigments can settle at the bottom.

Product is dripping during application

Do not overload your brush or sprayer. Apply thin, even layers rather than one thick layer to prevent runs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Long-lasting five-year protection reduces the need for frequent re-application
  • Can be applied to damp timber, preventing project delays due to rain
  • Suitable for both rough sawn and smooth wood surfaces
  • Resists peeling and flaking for a cleaner long-term appearance
  • Simple two-coat process for a professional finish

Cons

  • Requires two coats to meet the five-year protection claim
  • Color results may vary slightly depending on the original wood shade
  • Limited to specific color aesthetics if you are looking for non-natural tones

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure all loose debris, moss, or algae is removed from the wood surface. While the product works on damp wood, it should not be applied if heavy rain is imminent or if the temperature is below 10°C. Stir the product thoroughly before use to ensure the pigment is evenly distributed. For the best result, use a high-quality brush or a pressure sprayer. To maintain the 5-year promise, apply two even coats, allowing sufficient drying time between layers. After use, wash brushes or spray equipment with warm soapy water while the product is still wet, as once dried, the coating becomes highly water-resistant and difficult to remove.
