Application
Three
Simple Steps
- Step 1 - Prepare
- Use WOODS™
New Wood Conditioner to open pores and clean surfaces. (See WOODS™
New Wood Conditioner instruction sheet).
- Work from top down in a 1 to 1.5 meters (4 to 5 foot) swath.
- Important Note: Take precautions
to protect shrubs, pool, automobiles, and furniture as well as neighbors
property against overspray.
- Step 2 - Protect
- The most desirable method of application is low pressure or airless
sprayer.
- Carefully choose the appropriate treatment for your wood roof.
- Apply a flood coat of WOODS™
Roof Treatment. Work from the top down.
- Pay close attention to any run-off from gutters and downspouts using
soap and water to clean up.
- Coverage is approximately 7 square meters (75 square feet) per gallon
of WOODS™
Roof Treatment.
- Note: There is no benefit
to dipping shakes before they are installed. Dipping will use 4 times the amount of stain.
- Step 3 - Preserve
- An annual inspection and cleaning will help preserve your shakes and
finish.
- A periodic touch up may be necessary depending on exposure and conditions.
