Liberon Extreme Woodstain

Liberon Extreme Woodstain is a highly durable wood stain with added UV protection that is specially developed to protect exterior wood against severe weathering (i.e. ice, snow, rain, heat) and prolonged exposure to sunlight.

Providing up to 10 years protection, it is ideal for use on heavily exposed exterior timbers, such as cladding, gates, window frames, doors and fences.

Ensure that surfaces to be stained are clean, dry and free from traces of dust, dirt and any other surface contaminants.

Bare or New Timber

1. Fill any gaps or splits in the timber with a suitable wood filler
2. Lightly sand the wood surface and remove any sanding dust
3. Oily woods can be dregreased by wiping down with a lint-free cloth dampened with methylated spirit
4. For best protection, pre-treat timber with an exterior wood preserver before applying Extreme Woodstain

Previously Treated Timber

1. Previously varnished or painted timber must be stripped back to bare wood using a suitable paint stripper / remover
2. Neutralise in accordance with the wood stripper manufacturer's instructions, then rinse with water and allow to dry for 24 hours
3. Then treat as 'New Timber'

Always do a test area before starting any project to assess product suitability and final finish. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times.

Apply out of direct sunlight and where there is good ventilation. This prevents the wood stain from drying too quickly.

1. Stir the contents of the tin thoroughly before and periodically during use
2. Apply a minimum of 2 coats with a brush, spray (10% dilution with water) or suitable roller
3. On new or heavily exposed timber, Liberon recommend applying a third coat when using a light coloured stain
4. Ideal conditions for application are between 12°C and 25°C on wood that is not too hot in order to avoid drying marks
5. Allow 4 hours drying time between coats and 24 hours after final coat

Please Note: Liberon Extreme Woodstain offers up to 10 years' protection, provided that it is applied to new wood (with the exclusion of temperate hardwoods, i.e. oak, red cedar and iroko), old wood or renovated wood that is clean, bare, sound and non-greasy.

It should be applied in accordance with the above Application instructions. Exposure should be on vertical woodwork only. For South and South-West exposure, apply 3 coats. The guarantee is limited to reimbursing the cost of the product (when accompanied by a receipt) and only relates to the finish of the wood stain.

Regular Cleaning

Treated wooden surfaces can be cleaned on a regular basis by wiping down with a dampened lint-free cloth, and cleaned periodically with a suitable exterior wood cleaner.
