Applying Cutek Extreme wood preservative to a wood surface

December 14th, 2011

 

Cutek Extreme Wood Preservative before and after

Avoid contact with plants, shrubs, trees and waterways.

 

For best results one coat of CUTEKExtreme® should be applied to all faces of the wood or timber prior to fixing, with a second coat of CUTEKExtreme® applied to the top once the first coat is completely penetrated and dry. The time taken for

 

 

CUTEKExtreme® to penetrate the surface varies significantly, depending on aspect, species, ambient temperature, porosity and moisture content of the wood or timber. Thicker sections such as posts, beams and logs will require additional coats of Cutek Extreme in order to obtain adequate protection, as CUTEKExtreme® has a cumulative effect in the wood with each application.

Apply each coat liberally with spray, brush, fabric mop or roller. When using colortoned  CUTEKExtreme® it is essential that the pail be stirred frequently both before and during use. The more Cutek Extreme that is applied and absorbed, the longer the coating will last. Equipment may be cleaned with detergent and water, or mineral turpentine.

 IMPORTANT: Timber must feel completely dry anda non greasy before application of the second coat.

Cutek Extreme is distributed in Canada by Otter Creek and they can be reached by calling 1-800-981-3590 or by visiting their online store at www.myocstore.com
