Ensure that surfaces to be treated are clean, dry and free from dirt, debris and other contaminates.

2. Existing traces of mould, mildew, algae and fungi must be removed with a stiff brush, broom or scraper
3. Treat affected areas with a suitable mould and mildew remover
4. All rotten timber must be cut out and replaced with new, sound wood

Always do a small test area before beginning any project to assess the end results. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the container at all times. This product may cause darkening of some timbers.

1. For best results, apply with a suitable brush, in the direction of the wood grain
2. Apply to any freshly cut end grain, cut after the initial treatment
3. To ensure thorough protection, treat all surfaces where possible
4. Allow 48 hours to dry

Some Points of Note

• After full drying most glues, knotting solutions and fillers, such as Cuprinol All Purpose Wood Filler or Cuprinol Ultra Tough Wood Filler, can be used as normal
• Ensure timber is fully dry (approximately 3 days) before plastic flooring or rubber backed carpets are laid or hanging vinyl wallpaper
• If a long drying period is not possible, a vapour barrier such as heavy duty polythene sheet may be used

Please Note: Beehives and bee-keeping equipment must not be treated with Cuprinol 5 Star Wood Treatment.

Once fully dry, surfaces treated with Cuprinol 5 Star Wood Treatment can be over-coated with a suitable paint, stain, oil or varnish.
