Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation:
- Ensure all wood surfaces are clean, dry, and free from any existing finishes, dirt, moss, or fungal growth.
- Do *not* use a pressure washer for cleaning. A stiff brush and water is recommended if necessary.
- Crucially, protect adjacent decorative stone, metallic components (especially aluminum, zinc, copper, and lead), and plants from potential splashes by covering them securely.
Application:
- Apply the gel in warm conditions.
- Wear protective goggles, gloves, and suitable clothing.
- Use the supplied scrubbing brush to apply the gel evenly. Test on a small, inconspicuous area first to gauge effectiveness and coverage.
- Allow the gel to penetrate according to product instructions (refer to specific product label for dwell time).
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Care: Keep pets away from treated surfaces until they have been rinsed and are completely dry to prevent ingestion or skin irritation.
Compatibility: Suitable for most types of exterior wood, including rough sawn and smooth finishes. Avoid contact with non-wood materials as specified.
