NOTE: All wood requires proper surface preparation. Dirt and stains in
or on wood will be permanently sealed into the wood if not removed.
1. You must completely remove any and all previous coatings, sealers, paints,
stains, preservatives, etc. before applying Timber OX. The wood surface must
be completely cleaned before applying Timber OX.
2. Timber OX penetrates into the wood. To be sure there is nothing to prevent
Timber OX from penetrating, test the wood by sprinkling water on the wood
surface. If all of the water is absorbed into the wood, you are ready to apply
Timber OX (after wood has dried for at least 48 hours).
NOTE: A paint/stain stripper and/or sanding may be required to remove
any other pre-existing coating, sealers, paints, stains, preservatives, etc.
3. If Timber OX is applied over another coating, sealer, paint stain, preservative,
etc., the wood surface may become tacky, blotchy or discolored.
BEFORE COATING:
Perform a trial brush-out in several inconspicuous areas
to ensure the desired color is achieved. Replace rotted, extremely weathered or
warped wood. This product will not repair existing wood damage such as cracking,
checking, splintering, splitting; Make sure entire surface is completely dry
and free of dust, dirt and debris. Cover all surrounding areas not intended to be
coated. Thoroughly rinse these areas before and after application. Intermix multiple
gallons of the same product in a separate container to ensure a uniform color. Mix
thoroughly before use and stir occasionally during application. Do not tint, dilute or
mix this product with any other product. Do not spray in windy/breezy conditions.
APPLICATION:
Apply product above 60°F, and when no precipitation is expected
for 24 hours. To prevent premature evaporation do not apply to wood that is hot
to the touch or in direct sunlight. Apply with a natural or synthetic bristle staining
brush, stain/paint pad, HVLP or airless sprayer, or dip (3 minutes). When spraying,
work on a 30-40 square foot area at a time, making sure to back brush along the
grain any drips, runs, uneven coverage or surface puddles. Do not oversaturate
surface with product or allow to puddle to prevent shiners, tackiness, excessive
drying time or uneven appearance when dry.
Horizontal Surfaces:
APPLY ONE (1) LIBERAL, UNIFORM COAT ON DECKS
AND OTHER HORIZONTAL SURFACES. Thoroughly coat all exposed surfaces until
wood will not absorb additional product. Avoid puddling. A second coat is only
recommended is wood is extremely porous. Check the penetration rate of the first
30 sq. ft. area coated. If the coating is dry to the touch in 15 minutes or less, a
second light coat mat be applied no later than one hour after the first coat. Only
half the amount is necessary for the second coat.
Vertical Surfaces:
APPLY TWO (2) WET-ON-WET COATS ON SHAKE, SHINGLE
OR LAP SIDING, ROOFING, FENCES AND OTHER VERTICAL SURFACES. Do not
allow product to dry fully between coats. Apply second coat within 6 hours of the
first coat. This product must penetrate the surface to work properly -- do not apply
over a sealed surface. Do not use as a primer coat. Clean up over-spray, drips or
splashes with soap and water immediately.
DRY TIME
Allow a minimum 24-48 hours before using deck or sitting on outdoor
furniture. Wait 72 hours to reposition furniture on deck.
COVERAGE
Divide total square footage to be coated by 150. One gallon will
cover approximately 150-200 square feet, depending on wood species, age,
surface porosity and method of application. Rough, weathered or highly porous
surfaces will absorb more product and reduce coverage rate.
CLEAN UP
Use mineral spirits, wetrot or dryrot.
MAINTENANCE
Annual cleaning with mild soap and water is recommended. |
