Product Information
Full details
The Sadolin Superdec Satin Opaque Wood Protection in Black is designed for homeowners and professionals seeking a high-performance, long-lasting finish for diverse exterior surfaces like wood, plastic, and masonry. Its primary advantage is a flexible, self-priming formulation that offers up to 10 years of protection while resisting typical issues like flaking and peeling. However, users should be aware that it requires a strict three-coat application process and a specialized blocking primer if applied over highly resinous timber.

FAQs
Does this product require a separate primer?
For most surfaces, the product is self-priming. However, a blocking primer is required for highly resinous timbers.
How many coats are necessary?
For optimal protection and the 10-year life expectancy, a total of 3 coats are required.
Can this be used on plastic surfaces?
Yes, it is suitable for application on weathered plastic surfaces.
How long should I wait between coats?
You should wait at least 16 hours between each of the 3 coats.
Is this product oil-based or water-based?
It is a water-borne formula, which makes brush cleanup easier.
Can I use this on interior joinery?
While intended for exterior use, its durability makes it suitable for many joinery applications, though it is specifically formulated for exterior weathering resistance.
Troubleshooting
Paint is peeling shortly after application
Ensure the substrate was completely clean and free of oils or wax before painting; re-sand and re-apply.
Discoloration or yellow stains appearing on the black surface
This is likely due to resin bleed from the wood. You must sand back the area and apply a blocking primer before re-painting.
Finish is not drying or staying tacky
Check the ambient temperature; application should not occur in extreme cold or humidity. Ensure sufficient airflow during the 16-hour re-coat window.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best results, start by preparing the surface to be clean, dry, and free from loose paint or debris.
