Preparation
Make sure that the surface to be oiled is clean & dry and free from grease. Can only be applied to bare wood or previously oiled wood, not to painted or varnished surfaces.
- New, unpreserved timber treat with (ideally two coats).
- Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry and free from dust, dirt and algae, treat with a suitable .
- New wood should be first wiped down with White Spirit to remove surface resins etc. Highly resinous timbers and some hardwoods may effect performance and final results.
Application
The final colour achieved can vary considerably due to the age, type & condition of the timber being treated. Test a small area first in an inconspicuous place to make sure you're happy with the final dried colour.
- Decant into paint kettle and apply an even coat, in the direction of the wood grain, to all surfaces to ensure optimum performance.
- For best results, apply to all sides of decking before construction, brushing in the direction of wood grain.
- Normally one coat applied liberally with a wide bristle brush is sufficient, however should you require a deeper colour a second coat may be applied after 12-24 hours.
- If desired Barrettine Decking Oil may be applied by synthetic roller or sprayer. However always back brush to ensure even coverage.
- Leave for 24 - 48 hours or until dry before subjecting to heavy foot traffic.
Please note the coverage will differ depending on the surface it is applied to.
