Timbashield Water Sealer 5 litres (Transparent)

• Most exterior wood types- rough and smooth
• Suitable for Wood
• Weather-resistant
• Instructions for Use - Surface Preparation Shake / mix well before use and frequently during application. Ensure surrounding areas, including plants and lawn, are protected before application. New Bare Timber Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from contamination. Previously Coated Timber Timbashield Water Sealer has been designed to be used on bare, uncoated timber so it can soak deeply into the wood fibres and give optimum performance. Any old, loose or peeling coatings should be sanded back and the quality of the sanding will influence the finished result. If not totally removed only some of the water sealer may be absorbed, leading to issues such as patchiness and localised areas of water ingress. Surfaces already coated with microporous stain should be allowed to naturally weather for at least a year and do not need the additional sanding step and just need to be thoroughly cleaned before reapplication. Old Timber Wood that has decayed or is damaged should be removed and replaced. Brush with a stiff brush to remove any dirt that has become ingrained. Mould, algae and fungi must be removed and treated with a suitable wood cleaner. Please note that the due to the differences in porosity of some wooden surfaces, rough sawn, absorbent wood may require a higher volume of product. This is due to how much product is absorbed. A test patch is always recommended. Application Apply the product onto dry wood when there is no imminent rain forecast and in temperatures above 10 degrees Celsius. Do not apply in damp or humid conditions. Failure to meet these requirements may adversely affect the drying and durability of the finish. Storage and Shelf The product should be stored in tightly closed original containers at temperatures above 5°c and below 30°c. Recommended shelf life is 12 months from date of manufacture. If you wish to use the product after extended storage, bring the container to room temperature and stir well. Trial before use.

Features and benefits

Water accelerates the rotting process within wood, causing it to swell and shrink, causing cracking and damage to the surface. Timbashield Water Sealer reduces this effect and increases the lifespan of the wood that has been treated.

• Timbashield Water Sealer is a high performance, transparent water sealer and repellent. It will not crack, peel or blister due to the penetration into the wood.
• Water Sealer uses silicone technology that is designed specifically for use on wood to seal the wood against damage from water absorption over time by keeping the water content in the wood very low.
• Proven to protect wood from the effects of water for 10+ years.
