For the best results, ensure that surfaces to be varnished are sound, clean, dry and free from all surface contaminates such as wax and oil.
Previously Treated Wood
- Remove all loose and defective coatings including previous coats of paint and varnish by sanding or by using a paint stripper
- Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1970s paint surfaces they may contain harmful lead
- Thoroughly rub down all wooden surfaces in the direction of the grain to remove any grey, weathered wood and surface sheen from previous coatings
- Take care to remove all traces of sanding dust prior to varnishing
- Wood that has turned grey / silver as a result of sun damage can be treated with a suitable wood reviver or restorer
New or Bare Wood
- Fill any surface defects, open joints etc with a suitable exterior wood filler
- Seal all bare wood with 2 coats of a suitable wood preservative, including any new or bare replacement beading, then wipe off any excess basecoat from surrounding paintwork
- Replace any missing glazing material - do not use linseed oil putty for glazing

Top Quality Product
I have now ordered from WFD twice for decking stain & varnish. Cannot fault them in anyway. Good prices and quick and free delivery (must spend £30). Great choice of products.

Nice product
Leaves a great finish. Only problem I ran into was "what is brush cleaner" had to google it to find out what it contained. Also temperature limitations for application would be good to see.

A rather tired door restored!
After a lot of sanding, and a couple of coats of this yacht varnish, our back door looks great again!
