May 13th, 2011

 

Weathered Wood Finished With Cutek Green

You can apply Cutek Green Clear formula liberally with a spray, brush, or roller while remembering to remove drips and sags as necessary. When using the color-toned Cutek Green remember to stir the solution before and during application. The more precoat of Cutek Green is absorbed, the longer the coating will last. Equipment may be cleaned with detergent and water, or mineral turpentine.

Coverage

Spread rate is 1,000-1400 square feet per gallon

Maintenance

Cutek Green must be reapplied as frequently as necessary to retain the natural beauty and color of your wood deck. Recoat times vary widely according to the age and density of the wood species, and exporsure to weather the deck incurres. Typically horizontal exterior smooth surfaces exposed to full weather such as pool deck and handrails may require annual maintenance, while vertic rough sawn surfaces such as weathered siding may require maintenance less often.

WoodRich Brand Hardwood Wiping Stain for a Red Cedar deck

September 10th, 2009

5WRWS1-2T

Customer Question…………

I have a red cedar deck. Would the Woodrich hardwood stain work on this
deck, or do you suggest something else. The deck is 4 years old and has had
Thompson’s sealing on twice.

Response from WoodRich……………….

The hardwood Wiping Stain Formula performs very well on Red Cedar and other “soft” woods.  The main consideration should be given to the spread rate or product coverage.  As Cedar is generally more porous than a hardwood such as Ipe, you actual coverage will be slightly less than what is advertised for Ipe.  On 4 year old Red cedar that has been protected with Thompsons Water Seal, I would anticipate a spread rate between 200 and 250 square feet per gallon.
The other consideration is product solids.  This formula is extremely high in both resin and pigment solids.  Care should be take not to over apply the product as this could result in shiny spots that remain tacky where the product was not able to soak fully into the wood.  To prevent over application, simply look back over the surface of the deck and wipe up any stain that is still on the surface a few minutes after application.
