FAQs
What surfaces can I use Roxil Wood Scrub Gel on?

How long should I wait before applying a finishing coat?
Roxil Wood Scrub Gel primes the wood for finishing coats. Follow the instructions of your chosen finishing product for drying times.
Can I use this product on painted wood?
No, Roxil Wood Scrub Gel is designed to remove old coatings. Therefore, all previous coatings must be stripped before use.
What temperature is required for application?
Apply when temperatures are above 5°C.
Do I need to do anything before applying the gel?

How much area does one litre of Roxil Wood Scrub Gel cover?
Coverage is approximately 1m² per litre, but this can vary depending on the wood type and condition.
Is it safe to use near plants?
While the formula is water-based, it's advisable to protect nearby plants from direct contact during application.
What should I do if it rains after application?
Avoid application if rain is forecast during the application and curing period. If rain occurs shortly after application, the process may need to be repeated once the wood is dry.
Troubleshooting
Gel not effectively removing stains.
Ensure the product has been applied evenly and allowed to work for the full 24 hours. Consider a second application if necessary. If heavy biological growth is present, pre-clean with Roxil 100 Wood & Patio Cleaner.
Surface is still discolored after treatment.
Check if the wood is compatible with the product. Ensure the application temperature was above 5°C. For severely weathered wood, multiple applications might be needed.
