Surface preparation before treatment

Wood moisture content must not exceed 20%. Perform application at the temperature not below 5 °C and relative humidity up to 80%. Clean the surface thoroughly from dirt, grease and dust. The wood must not be damaged by mould and algal growth. Clean the darkened areas of the wood and replace dead wood.
Use the wood cleaning agent Wood Clean to clean and bleach the wood.  After cleaning, rinse the surface thoroughly with water and dry it. Priming with Biostop is mandatory for outdoor application. Use galvanised fasteners for fastening the treated wooden parts. Pre-treat nail-heads or braces with anticorrosive primer. 
Finish outdoor surfaces so that the surface can dry before the evening dew falls.
We do not recommend performing the application in direct sunlight or at high temperatures.
NB! Please pay attention to the constructional methods of protecting wooden surfaces: good waterproofing of walls and the roof, water drainage and ventilation. The result of using wood protection products depends on the adequate use of constructional methods of the protection of wooden surfaces. 

Application

Stir the product thoroughly before application and in the process of working. Apply 1 coat at the temperature not below 5 °C and relative humidity up to 80%. Apply the product evenly from edge to edge along the grain of the wood making sure that no unprotected areas or visible boundaries. 
Apply the following coat after the oil has been absorbed by the wood. Remove the unabsorbed excess oil from the surface, using a cloth. Take special care to treat the ends and the surfaces in direct contact with moisture. We recommend treating the downside of the boards as well before installing walkways. 
Annual treatment of the surfaces constantly exposed to the elements is recommended. 
Mixing a large quantity of the product in one container is recommended for ensuring that the colour of large surfaces is even.
