Full details
The Walther Strong HD Timber Coating is designed for builders, contractors, and DIYers looking to protect exposed timber ends from moisture damage. Its key benefit is providing a quick-drying, waterproof barrier that prevents rot and decay, especially in hard-to-reach areas. A minor caveat is that the surface may remain slightly tacky after curing. This coating offers long-term protection for cut timber, acting as a crucial step in preserving the structural integrity of wooden elements in construction and decking projects.

What areas of timber should I coat?

Can I use this coating on painted timber?
It is best applied to raw, bare timber. Existing coatings should be removed for optimal adhesion and penetration.
How much area does one 4kg container cover?
One 4kg container covers approximately 150m of timber cut ends and joists.
How should I clean up my tools after use?
Clean tools and skin immediately after use with warm, soapy water.
Is it normal for the surface to be slightly tacky after curing?
Yes, the surface may remain slightly tacky after curing, which is considered normal for this product.
What safety precautions should I take?
Wear gloves and eye protection during use. Avoid contact with clothing. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Ensure good ventilation.
Troubleshooting
Coating is not drying properly.
Ensure application is not excessively thick. Check environmental conditions; very high humidity or low temperatures can slow drying. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Surface remains very sticky after 24 hours.
A slight tackiness is normal. If the surface is excessively sticky and prevents further work, ensure no contaminants were present during application and that the product was applied within its recommended thickness. Allow additional drying time in a well-ventilated area.
Difficulty applying to rough timber.
Ensure the timber is structurally sound and free of loose debris. A brush or roller designed for textured surfaces can aid application.
Accidental contact with clothing.
Attempt to clean the affected area immediately with warm, soapy water. Dried product may be difficult to remove.
