Water-based, quick-drying premium wood stain for professional use

FIELD OF APPLICATION:

• For use on exterior wood
• Wood which is not in ground contact, in accordance with DIN EN 335-1, use classes 2 and 3
• Wood building elements with no dimensional stability: e.g. fences, framework, carports, planking
• Wood building elements with limited dimensional stability, e.g. folding shutters, matchboarding, summerhouses
• Dimensionally stable wood building elements (when used as a primer only): e.g. windows and doors
• Primer, intermediate and finishing coats

PROPERTIES:

• Low-build stain
• 3 in 1: impregnation, priming and stain
• Protects wood from moisture and provides effective protection against blue stain fungi
• Protection against weathering (constructive protection and the protection provided by the product) reduces the risk of blue stain and rot
• Increased solids content provides physical protection against nesting wasps
• Film preserver protects against mould and algae
• Water-based: does not give off any unpleasant odours and tools can be cleaned with water
• Quick drying: 2 coats can be applied in one day
• Subsequent treatment without sanding
• Long-term protection with uniform weathering and no flaking

APPLICATION:

• Substrate requirements

  The substrate must be clean, dust-free and dry.

  Dimensionally stable wood building elements: wood moisture content 11-15%

  Wood building elements with limited or no dimensional stability: wood moisture content max. 18%

• Preparations

  Completely remove old coatings (e.g. paints or medium-build stains), bark, bast and dirt.

  Remove loose and torn knots as well as resin that bleeds and clean with a suitable product (e.g. Remmers thinner & brush cleaner).

  Smooth, planed wood surfaces should be sanded and dusted before the coating is applied to ensure better absorption.

  Observe BFS Code of Practice No. 18 "Coatings on Wood and Wooden Working Materials in Outdoor Areas".

USAGE:

• Preventive protection against blue stain at 197-216 ml/m² in at least 2 applications

NOTES:

• On planed larch and softwoods with a high resin content, the coating may have reduced adhesion and resistance to weathering. This is especially the case on horizontal year rings, knots and areas of winter growth that are high in resin. Maintenance and renovation must be carried out more frequently on these surfaces.
  The only remedy for this is pre-weathering or very coarse sanding (P80).
  If these wood types are rough-sawn, considerably longer maintenance and renovation intervals are to be expected.

   

  According to the current state of the art (this includes DIN 68800-1 and -3 in Germany), wood preservation measures must also be planned for non-load-bearing wooden elements in good time and with due care, with the agreement of all parties involved in the construction (architect, developer, builder) and in compliance with the legal requirements and the conditions on site. The use of biocidal (“chemical”) wood preservatives should therefore always be indicated in suitable fashion prior to sale, or must be agreed in advance with the client in writing. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in country-specific or contract-specific conflicts with legal requirements, standards or certification systems. The Remmers Technical Service would be happy to discuss the matter and provide you with a template agreement for the use of a biocidal (“chemical”) wood preservative on the wooden elements being used.

   

  Observe the regulations concerning design principles for wood protection.
  
  Do not use on horizontal surfaces without drainage slopes and without edge radius, avoid accumulated moisture.
