Ronseal Quick Drying Decking Stain

Ronseal Quick Drying Decking Stain is a water based decking stain which will colour and protect your decking. It provides a durable, slip resistant finish that can be recoated in 15 minutes and touch dry in as little as 1 hour. Unlike other stains, there's no need to strip back each year, simply clean the deck and reapply.

• Stain resistant
• No peeling or flaking
• Dries to a semi translucent finish
• Low VOC Levels
• For ridged or smooth hardwood or softwood decking

Always ensure the surface to be treated is clean, dry and free from any dust, algae, fungi or moss.

• To clean decking give it a good brush with a stiff broom to remove any dirt, debris or loose wood.
• Check the surface of the decking for loose screws or boards and ensure these are tightened.
• If the decking has been previously stained, painted or varnished, we would recommend to strip it back to the bare wood. For previously stained decking you can use Ronseal Garden Decking Stripper to remove the stain.
• If your decking has been effected by algae, fungi or mould it can be cleaned with Ronseal Decking Cleaner and Reviver.

Before applying stir the product thoroughly and test a small area to ensure colour and adhesion. Colours can vary dependant on surface to be treated.

• Give the stain a good stir and dip in your brush or paint pad.
• Start in the furthest corner, applying along the length of the boards.
• Work on 3-4 boards at a time so you don’t get any overlap marks.
• Apply a second coat after 15 minutes.
• Even if the decking is still slightly wet this will help the stain stick to the wood.
• Allow to dry for 24 hours before putting furniture on the deck.
• If you get any stain on yourself, wash it off with warm soapy water.

Note: Always follow the manufacturer instructions found on the tin.

Our Quick Drying Decking Stain will keep your deck protected and looking great all season long. When the colour begins to fade, simply clean the deck using Ronseal Decking Cleaner & Reviver, leave the deck to dry and then recoat with your favourite Ronseal Quick Drying Decking Stain colour.
