Quick Drying Woodstain
Medium Build Semi-Transparent Water-borne Woodstain
USES
Medium build exterior woodstain (Ref.: BS EN 927-1 1997) for providing protection to timber substrates such as doors, window frames, cladding, fascias and soffits.COMPOSITION
Alkyd/acrylic resin blend dispersed in water.PROPERTIES
Semi-gloss finish, which is weather resistant and washable.PREPARATION
Timber surface must be abraded, clean and dry, with dust, dirt, wax and grease removed. Mould and algal growth must be eradicated using a suitable fungicide/algicide. The moisture content of the timber must not exceed 18 percent and for best results moisture content should be no higher than 15 percent. Degrease timber surface by wiping with a cloth dampened with cellulose thinners or equivalent. Any hard crystallised resin at the surface of the timber should be removed with a scraper. Remaining resinous residues may be removed using methylated spirits. We do not recommend the use of "knotting agents", which are not always fully effective in "sealing in" resin. In addition, the presence of knots is often highlighted and adhesion of subsequent coatings can be impaired.For timbers deemed to be Durability Class 4 (slightly durable) or Class 5 (not durable) reference BS EN 350-2 :1994, a preservative pre-treatment with Sadolin Quick Drying Wood Preserver or similar approved brush applied preservative is recommended. To achieve maximum protection, preservative application by double vacuum impregnation or time controlled immersion, in accordance with the appropriate regulation, is preferable. Preservative pre-treatments must be fully dry before the application of Quick Drying Woodstain.
APPLICATION
Apply two coats paying special attention to tops and bottoms of doors, undersides of cills and any areas of exposed end grain. Product should be applied in a full flowing coat following the direction of the grain. Ensure application all round components prior to installation. Avoid overbrushing, as this will cause brush marks and a poor quality finish.Quick Drying Woodstain is supplied ready for use and should not be thinned.

MAINTENANCE
Remove surface dust and dirt by washing. Any loose material may be removed using a stiff (non metallic) bristle brush. If water and a mild detergent are necessary to remove any stubborn dirt, ensure that the timber is thoroughly rinsed and allowed to dry completely. Mould and algal growth must be eradicated using a suitable fungicide/algicide. Apply a further coat of Quick Drying Woodstain as described in the Application section. Two coats will be necessary if the finish has become heavily eroded.If excessive weathering has occurred giving a grey appearance, the surface must be abraded back to clean bare timber before recoating.
