Avoid introducing any bubbles. - If you are coating a large space and need more than one Timber and Deck Stain, mix all together in a large container. Alright take your product and your brush, spray or Feast Watson floor applicator and let’s apply your wood stain: - Apply two coats of Timber and Deck Stain, walking along 3-4 planks at a time, in the same direction as the grain of the deck. If you are using a spray, don't forget to back brush the coating to ensure even penetration. - Don’t forget about your edges! They need to be fully coated. - Allow 12 hours drying between coats. Congratulations, you now have a beautiful deck! MAINTENANCE Regular check on the coated timber to look for any colour loss, dryness or weathering. If this occurs, recoat the timber and it will return to its original glossy beauty. If you recoat, don’t forget to clean your deck first using Woodclean.
