Overview

Overview

Back

Protek Royal Exterior Wood Stain is a high quality, decorative wood stain finish. The colours in the extensive Royal range are classic, contemporary and fit perfectly with modern design.

Its unique formulation is a water-based acrylic and alkyd hybrid that incorporates a polyurethane dispersion based on linseed oil. It is ideal for use on exterior wooden windows, doors, conservatories, summerhouses, gates, cladding and garden furniture.

Preparation

Preparation

Back

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

  • Exterior wood should be thoroughly cleaned with warm water, detergent and a stiff brush
  • Previous treatments including paints and varnishes should be fully removed
  • Treat areas affected by mould, mildew or algae with a suitable mould and mildew cleaner
  • Allow the timber to dry fully
  • If applying to bare timber, a knotting agent or stain blocking primer should be applied prior to application to prevent any possible resin bleed staining the coating
  • If the timber hasn't already been preserved, a suitable, wax-free wood preservative is recommended

Application

Application

Back

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.

  1. Mix thoroughly before and periodically during use
  2. Apply with a good quality synthetic bristle brush, microfibre roller or low pressure spray gun
  3. It is recommended that 2 coats be applied, with a 3rd coat if a deeper colour is required
  4. Allow 2-4 hours drying time between coats
  5. Do not apply in temperatures below 5°C or if wet weather is expected within 48 hours
  6. Do not apply to wet, damp or frozen timber

Please Note: Protek Royal Exterior Stain is a high build formulation so each extra coat increases the colour and sheen. A lighter stain effect can be produced by applying a single coat of a colour with Royal Exterior Clear on top. This also gives a harder surface finish, providing the fullest level of protection.

Aftercare

Aftercare

Back

Maintain every 2 - 5 years or as required by cleaning the surface of the wood and following the preparation and application instructions above.

Seems to be good
Seems to be good. Very handy that you clean equipment with water. I wasn’t expecting the thick consistency of the product but I would buy again

Previous satisfied user Originally supplied with my shed
I was surprised at how quickly this item arrived. It is the product that I have applied to my shed previously, lovely colour and long lasting. But now is the time to apply another coat to keep my shed protected and weather proof.

5 litre tin x2 two coats on a 8 x12ft shed and a similar sized summer house
Good product. Easy to apply with a synthetic 4in brush. The colour kept the natural look of the wood and seems to afford decent protection. I will use it again.
