• Fast drying
• Seals knots
• Interior and exterior use

Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from contaminants.

• For new wood, sand the surface to create a suitable key for better adhesion.
• Ensure the wood is sound and in good condition before applying.
• Proper preparation ensures optimal results and a smooth finish.

Before use, mix the product thoroughly to ensure an even consistency. This will help achieve the best results and ensure proper coverage.

• Stir well to distribute any settled components, as this will help the product perform at its optimum level.
• Ensure the environment is suitable for application, including proper temperature and humidity levels. For the best results, apply when the temperature is between 10°C and 25°C.
• Avoid applying when the temperature is below 7°C or during high humidity, as these conditions may affect the drying time and effectiveness of the product.
• In confined spaces, it's essential to provide adequate ventilation to ensure proper airflow during both the application and drying processes. This helps to reduce the buildup of fumes and ensures the coating cures properly.
Allow the product to dry thoroughly before proceeding with any subsequent layers of paint or finishes. Depending on environmental conditions, drying may take anywhere from 30 minutes to 1-2 hours, but it is recommended to follow the manufacturer's specific drying guidelines to ensure proper curing.
