Tips & Advice
- Ideal for outdoor treated timber structures such as sheds, fences, trellis, pergolas and timber gazebos.
- Not suitable for use on decking, as the rub resistance is not sufficient for foot traffic.
- Colour swatches are an indication only. The final colour may vary depending on the age, type and condition of the timber. Always carry out a small test area first.
- The product contains drying oils which may, under certain conditions, spontaneously combust. Saturate used cloths with soapy water immediately after use and lay them flat outside to dry.
