DESCRIPTION
A penetrating and finishing oil which deepens and
enhances the natural grain of the timber. It is resistant
to dirt and moisture. Suitable for exterior panelling,
garden furniture, windows, sandpits, box framing, rafters,
pergolas etc. Not to be used on alkaline surfaces, plaster,
concrete or fibro-cement. If considering use on those
materials a test-strip should be made
to assess suitability.
PROTECTION
Protection against weather and wood-destroying
ultra-violet light. One to three coats are recommended
depending on the absorbency of the timber. Box frames,
timber windows, cladding and end grains must be
treated B E F O R E INSTALLATION.
It is also good practice to prime all back surfaces.
PREPARATION
Prepare surface in accordance with AS 2311 Painting
of Buildings. Do not apply coatings
to unseasoned or wet timber. Round off sharp edges.
Wood and other surfaces should be well
sanded, dry and cleaned of greasy, waxy and dirty contaminants
using BIO Thinner. Imperfect coats
may require complete stripping before applying BIO
Products.
Hardwoods
and other timbers rich in natural oils, waxes, acids
and terpenes should be degreased using BIO Thinner,
because these substances may mix with the oil and prolong
its drying time.
PRIMING
For fungi and insect treatment use BIO WOOD PROTECTING
BORAX. Before painting, wipe off the surplus of Borax
with a damp cloth, otherwise surface residue may inhibit
paint adhesion.
APPLICATION
Stir thoroughly before use with a broad flat stirrer.
Brush, roll or spray thinly and evenly working the oil
well into the grain. Maintain a wet
edge when painting. Thick coats wrinkle when dry. Avoid
bubbles. If necessary thin with BIO THINNER for hardwood
application. Do not apply more oil than the surface
can absorb. Remove excess oil with a dry, lint free
cloth after approx. 1 - 2 hours. Lightly sand between
coats if necessary with fine sandpaper. Allow 12 to
24 hours to
dry between coats. Low temperatures and humid conditions
prolong the drying time. Apply second and subsequent
coats only after previous coat has thoroughly dried.
Do not use below +10 C and or above 80% humidity;
in cold damp conditions;
when condensation, rain,
dew or frost are likely to occur;
on hot days; in direct sunlight; or on hot surfaces. Provide adequate ventilation
during application and drying.
Reaches maximum durability after 8-14 days.
RE-COATING
Re-coating is recommended after approximately 12-24 months, depending on the exposure to the weather
or to those areas seen to be necessary.
