Do not only apply the Clear UV Top Coat or the Colorless Base without first applying 2 coats of tinted Protektor SLT. Pigments contained in the tinted Protektor SLT greatly contributes to the preservation of wood.
Preparation :
Avoid using if rain or snow is expected on the coated surface within 48 - 72 hours at low temperatures. Do not apply in temperature below 1 °C. Stir the product well before and during the application. Do not shake.
Clean all porous surfaces using a high pressure sprayer. All surfaces must be free from dust, dirt, wax, grease, oil and mold. Sand smooth wood surfaces using a 60-80 grit sandpaper to remove mill glaze or existing finish.
Water-based or water-borne coatings react with metal. All metal contamination and staining must be removed prior to applying Broda.
Protektor SLT may be applied to dry or damp surfaces. For interior use, do not dampen wood surface.
Pressure Treated Wood : Test the absorbency of the wood by sprinkling water on the surface. If the water penetrates into the wood quickly, the wood is ready to finish. If the water beads up or does not penetrate, allow the wood to weather and test for absorbency again. Do not sand pressure treated lumber. Due to the green or brown tone of many brands of pressure treated lumber, the color of the Broda may look different from the color selected.
Always test for penetration, appearance and color in an inconspicuous area before applying. Protect, cover or mask all areas and surfaces that do not require coating.
Pour the contents into an empty container. Loosen pigment from the bottom or original container and pour the contents back in, repeat until all pigments is in solution. Intermix all containers of the same color.
Not recommended to be applied in direct sunlight.
Application :
For exterior application, if the surface is warm to the touch, dampen the surface prior to the first coat only. Apply using a Stain brush, roller or a stain pad. Completely saturate the surface. Spread the product evenly. Let dry for 12 to 48 hours. Apply second coat fully saturating the surface.
