Application

NEW WOODEN SURFACE:
Treat the wooden surface which is subjected to weather strain as soon as possible. At least the pre-treatments, impregnation and priming would be best done in the summer of construction. Remove from the surface all loose matter, dirt and dust. Wash dirty and/or mildewed surfaces with Teknos Rensa Façade Cleaner. Brush the detergent into the surface and leave it to take effect as long as possible. However, the surface must not get to dry. After this rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water and allow to dry completely. Treat the wooden surface with clear Teknos Woodex Aqua Base priming oil. Allow to dry for one day. Apply by spray or brush. Treat end grain especially carefully. The surface treated with priming oil is then primed with Teknos Woodex Aqua Solid diluted about. 10% by volume. Allow to dry for about. 12h. Apply by brush. When spray painting, finish the wet painted surface with a brush.

In order to achieve the most long-lasting treatment also Teknos Nordica Primer can be used for priming. Drying time is 1–3 day depending on the temperature and humidity of the air. Treat end grain especially carefully.

PREVIOUSLY PAINTED/WITH PRIMING OIL TREATED OR OLD WOODEN SURFACE:
Replace or repair wooden parts that are in poor condition. Remove loose matter, loose or poorly adherent paint or priming oil as well as greyed or fluffy layers of wood by e.g. scraping, wire brushing or using an infra-red heater. Avoid unnecessary damaging of the wooden surface. The adhesion of an old, thick paint layer to the substrate may have been weakened so much that the paint should be removed even if it seems intact. Wash surfaces with Teknos Rensa Façade Cleaner. Brush the detergent into the surface and leave it to take effect as long as possible. However, the surface must not get to dry.

After this rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water and allow to dry completely. Avoid unnecessary wetting of the wooden structures during the washing. Bare wooden surface of the damaged parts are treated withTeknos Woodex Aqua Base. Allow to dry for 1 day. After that prime the damaged parts with Teknos Woodex Aqua Solid diluted about. 10% by volume. Allow to dry for about. 12h.
