Description As a sacrificial product, the coating will become less effective over time (approx. 2 years depending on elevation and weather conditions), but a fresh top up coat can easily be reapplied. Water-repellent oil and resins help to protect against warping and twisting, and active ingredients at the surface aid in the prevention of mould, fungi, and algae growth. Together, these form a microporous shield suitable for all exterior wood, especially external joinery, luxury cabins and wooden cladding. Application Apply 2-3 coats evenly using a high-quality brush and/or Roller. First coat – apply generously until wood is saturated. Subsequent coats – apply sparingly, gloss will increase. Allow minimum 4 hours between coats and 10 hours until fully dry. Test Area: Depending on wood type and condition, Armourflex UV Oil will darken the surface but this will usually fade back after a period of time and when the product has fully cured. We highly recommend carrying out a small test area first to make sure you will be happy with the final finish. Protect from rain/frost until dry. Cold/damp conditions cause a hazy appearance. Coverage Approximately 15-20 m2/L based on smooth planed wood. Denser woods i.e. oak/iroko will require less than cedar, larch and pine. First coat will absorb more than subsequent coats. As a guide, this 1L tin will cover 8 m2 with 2 coats. / As a guide, this 2.5L tin will cover 20m2 with 2 coats. View the Armourflex UV Protection Oil label
