Description
Cabot’s Exterior Clear
is a durable, marine grade polyurethane that provides protection and shine without hiding the grain. It offers resistance against weathering and moisture damage and incorporates the latest ultra-violet absorber technology to maximize gloss, performance, and durability.
PREPARATION
Note:
Fill holes and imperfections with a suitable timber putty if required.
Bare Timber
To coat new bare timber immediately, scrub damp timber with
Cabot’s New Timber Prep
, following label instructions. New Timber Prep will draw out tannins and oils quickly from the surface, allowing you to skip the 4-6 weeks weathering process required for new timber. Always follow New Timber Prep with
Cabot’s Deck Clean
following label instructions. Remove excess water from the surface with a squeegee on
Cabot’s Deck Prep brush
, and allow timber to dry for at least 1 hour.
Note:
Cooler conditions could slow down the drying time of the timber.
Previously Stained and Oiled Timber
For exterior surfaces, clean with
Cabot’s Deck Clean
following label instructions. Test if the surface is ready for coating by sprinkling water on the timber. If the water beads on the surface, repeat the application of Deck Clean. If water is absorbed into timber, it is ready for coating. For a more transparent look, sand timber back to bare then clean with
Cabot’s Deck Clean
before coating.
Weathered and Grey Timber
For best results, sand timber back to fresh substrate. Clean with
Cabot’s Deck Clean
following label instructions.
APPLICATION
Important – work in a well-ventilated area and protect nearby surfaces from overspray.
1. Before spraying, shake can well for about 1 minute, ensuring the mixing ball is moving vigorously inside the can.2. Hold can approximately 20cm away from the surface. Apply light coats with a quick, even motion, beginning and ending each stroke beyond the surface being sprayed until the desired finish is achieved.
Note:
For exterior timber, a minimum of 4 coats is recommended, depending on the porosity of the timber. Clear the nozzle after each use by turning the can upside down and spraying for several seconds.
