Tinted Colour Information

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from dirt, grease, grime and mildew. Remove any previous coatings where necessary.

New Wood Surfaces

• New wood can have a hard, shiny surface known as mill glaze, which can limit penetration and prevent proper coating adhesion. Carry out a water drop test: sprinkle water onto the surface. If the water is absorbed immediately, the surface is ready for finishing. If the water is not absorbed, follow the guidance below:
• Resinous or high-moisture timber such as Larch, Pine, Spruce and PTW: Treat with Owatrol Seasonite and allow the wood to weather for a minimum of 6 months.
• Cedar: Treat with Owatrol Seasonite and allow to weather for a minimum of 12 months, regardless of the water drop test result.
• Exotic woods such as Iroko, Azobe, Padouk and Ipe: Allow the wood to weather for a minimum of 12 months.

Weathered Wood Surfaces

• Clean the wood with Owatrol Net-Trol to remove loose wood fibres, dirt and other surface contaminants.
• If the wood is severely contaminated, clean with Owatrol Aquanett or Owatrol Prepdeck, then neutralise with Owatrol Net-Trol.

Previously Coated Surfaces

• Check the adhesion of the existing finish using the cross-hatch test method.
• If the existing finish is well adhered, sand the surface and clean with Owatrol Net-Trol.
• If the existing finish is in poor condition or poorly adhered, all previous coatings must be completely and thoroughly removed. Use the appropriate product according to the type of existing finish:
• Oils: Strip with Owatrol Aquanett orOwatrol Prepdeck, then neutralise with Owatrol Net-Trol.
• Solvent-based finishes (oil or alkyd): Strip with Owatrol Dilunett, then neutralise with Owatrol Net-Trol.
• Acrylic finishes (water-based): Strip with Owatrol Prepdeck, then neutralise with Owatrol Net-Trol.
• Other finishes, such as 2-pack epoxies and urethanes: Strip with DSP800.

Important: Woods that are high in tannins, such as Cedar, Ipe, Oak and Teak, may darken when treated with Owatrol Aquanett, Owatrol Prepdeck or Owatrol Dilunett. Neutralising with Owatrol Net-Trol immediately after rinsing will help lighten the wood and restore its natural colour. A contact time test must be carried out when using Owatrol Aquanett, Owatrol Prepdeck or Owatrol Dilunett on Oak, Chestnut and other high-tannin woods to avoid blackening the wood. Refer to the relevant TDS for further guidance.

Always test a small area of the surface to be painted to ensure you are happy with the finished results

• Apply an even coat of Owatrol Solid Colour Stain, avoiding heavy application, using a brush, a roller sleeve or Airless sprayer.
• Allow to dry for 3–4 hours.
• Then apply a second coat.

Note: When spraying, immediately back-brush or back-roll the surface to ensure even colour, coverage and penetration.
