Sadolin Beautiflex Solvent Opaque Woodstain - Multicolor

Sadolin Beautiflex Solvent Opaque Woodstain is suitable for most types of exterior woodwork, including decking, sheds, fences, and doors made from hardwoods and softwoods.

Drying times can vary depending on temperature, humidity, and application thickness. Typically, it is touch-dry in 4-6 hours and ready for a second coat after 16-24 hours.

It is best applied to bare, prepared wood. If applying over existing finishes, ensure they are sound and well-adhered. Lightly abrading the surface can improve adhesion, but any loose or flaking paint/varnish must be removed.

Coverage varies depending on the type and condition of the wood. As a guide, it typically covers approximately 8-12 square meters per liter per coat on planed wood.

Clean brushes and equipment immediately after use with a suitable solvent or white spirit.

With proper application and maintenance, the finish can last for several years, offering durable protection against weathering and UV damage.

Generally, this product does not require thinning. It is designed to be applied as supplied. Check the product tin for specific instructions, but thinning is usually not recommended as it can affect the finish and durability.

Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and properly prepared before application. Remove any contaminants like grease or mold. Check that previous coatings were removed or properly abraded.

Stir the product thoroughly before and during use. Apply thin, even coats, avoiding over-application. Ensure consistent brush strokes in the direction of the wood grain. For very porous wood, a second coat may be necessary.

Ensure the product has been stirred adequately. If the product has been stored for a long time, slight thickening can occur. Try stirring more vigorously. Do not attempt to thin unless specified by the manufacturer, as this can compromise performance.

Use a high-quality brush and apply in the direction of the wood grain. Maintain a wet edge to avoid lap marks. For larger areas, consider using a roller designed for solvent-based coatings or working in smaller, manageable sections.
