Surface Preparation
First all surfaces must be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease, grime mildew and other surface contaminants. If mildew is present, treat it with a solution of 1 part bleach to 3 parts water. Scrub the solution on to the surface, allow it to stand for 10-15 minutes and then rinse thoroughly. If necessary sand the surface after cleaning (80 grit paper).
Application of Seasonite new wood protection
Wood should be clean and dry or damp but not wet. Then simply apply one liberal, saturating coat to all wood surfaces. Ensure you soak it into the end grain. When treating a deck, work Seasonite into all the cracks between the boards. If dipping shakes or shingles, soak them for 10 minutes then allow the excess to drain. Decks can usually be walked on 1 hour after application.
NOTE: Do not use Seasonite on Oak.
Clean Up
Clean all tools and equipment with soap and water.
Maintenance
After a year of weathering, wood treated with Seasonite is easily maintained and protected using a clear penetrating oil finish, such as Textrol, or for colour use Solid Colour Stain. Remember to use Net-Trol to clean & restore the wood to its original colour first.
Things to Remember
- Cover everything you do not wish to coat, including plants and shrubs.
- Apply between 10°C and 30°C. Do not apply in direct sunlight or to hot surfaces.
- Do not apply if cold and/or wet weather is expected within 24 hours.
- Shake or stir can well before use. Do not thin.
- Always work the entire length of a deck board or horizontal cladding to a logical break, such as a window or door frame and never stop application in the middle of the wall.
- Vertical cladding should be coated from top to bottom.
- After spray application, always back-brush or back-roll to improve penetration and uniformity of coverage.
- Consult us for additional information and advice prior to using Seasonite on hardwoods.
- Do not use Seasonite on Oak.
