Owatrol Seasonite

New Wood Protection

Owatrol Seasonite will protect all new exterior wood against the damaging effects of sun and moisture in the first 6-12 months when it is at it’s most vulnerable.

Properties

• Stabilises and protects the wood during its first 12 months of weathering.
• Penetrates the wood and protects it from excess moisture. Allows wood pores to open naturally.
• Minimises any splitting, cracking, warping and cupping due to the damaging effects of the sun and rain.
• Colourless treatment.
• Easy to use.
• Minimises the greying & weathering process – prepares the wood for re-coating.
• After 6-12 months of weathering, Seasonite provides a sound surface for paint, wood stain or other finishes to be applied to.

Where to use

• Ideal for softwood (Pine, Spruce, Ceder etc) and especially for pressure-treated wood.
• Vertical or horizontal surfaces.
• Use on garden decks, shakes, shingles, cladding, fencing, unfinished outdoor furniture in Pine, Spruce, Cedar or other softwoods.
• Apply a generous coat to all dry wood surfaces before or after installation.
• Do not apply to weathered wood.

Surface Preparation

• Surfaces must be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease, grime mildew and other surface contaminants.
• Treat mildew with a solution of 1 part bleach to 3 parts water. Scrub solution on to surface, allow to stand for 10-15 minutes; rinse thoroughly.
• If necessary sand surface after cleaning (80 grit paper).

Application

• Wood should be clean, dry to touch and free from all stains.
• Shake well before use. Do not dilute.
• Apply one liberal coat of Seasonite to all wood surfaces with a brush, roller or garden sprayer.
• Ensure Seasonite flows in between the boards and that all end grains are well saturated. If dipping shakes or shingles, soak for 10 min then allow the excess to drain.
• If desired, after 6 to 12 months of weathering, clean with Net-Trol, and finish with Textrol or Solid Colour Stain.
• Refer to packaging for full user instructions
