Overview

Barrettine Log Cabin Treatment is perfect for all exterior wood, including log cabins, summer houses, sheds, fences and decking. Adds additional protection to wood that has been previously pressure treated or treated with an exterior wood preservative.

Preparation

Ensure surfaces to be treated are clean, dry and free from loose dirt and other surface contaminants.

  1. Repellent coatings such as paints, varnishes and coating type stains must be fully removed by sanding or using Paint Panther Paint and Varnish Remover
  2. Sweep the surface with a stiff broom or brush to remove all traces of surface dirt, debris, mould, algae or fungi
  3. Treat areas affected by algae, mould and mildew with Barrettine Mould and Mildew Cleaner or Barrettine Mould and Mildew Spray
  4. Treat any existing instances of woodworm with Barrettine Premier Woodworm Killer
  5. Fill any gaps or splits in the wood with a suitable wood filler
  6. Wooden decking can be cleaned with Barrettine Decking and Patio Cleaner prior to treatment
  7. For old or untreated wood, the application of Barrettine Premier Universal Preservative is highly recommended and allow it to dry for a minimum of 48 hours
  8. Any freshly cut sawn ends should be thoroughly treated with the above preserver, or alternatively Barrettine End Grain Preserver

Application

Always do a small test area to confirm performance and compatibility before starting any project and follow the manufacturer's instructions on the container at all times. Stir thoroughly prior to and during application to ensure a consistent finish.

  1. Decant Log Cabin Treatment into a paint kettle or other suitable container
  2. Apply liberally, with a good quality natural bristle brush, working the oil into the surface of the wood and brushing in the direction of the wood grain
  3. If desired, Barrettine Log Cabin Treatment may be applied by synthetic roller or sprayer, however you should always back brush to ensure even coverage
  4. For best results, apply to all external sides of log cabins, sheds and decking prior to construction
  5. Remove any excess surface oil to avoid extended drying times
  6. Normally, one coat applied liberally with a wide bristle brush is sufficient
  7. Should you apply a second coat, it may be applied after 12-24 hours, depending on the type of wood
  8. Some hard / oily exotic hard woods such as Iroko, Teak, Idigbo and Cedar may only absorb 1 thin coat
  9. For decking boards leave 24-48 hours before subjecting to heavy foot traffic

Cleaning Equipment

After use, brushes can be cleaned with Barrettine Brush Cleaner or Barrettine Paint Brush Restorer.

Aftercare

Regular Cleaning

All treated exterior wood can be cleaned with Barrettine Driveway, Decking and Patio Cleaner.

Maintenance

Barrettine Log Cabin Treatment can be easily maintained with an application of a thin maintenance coat as and when required, usually every couple of years or as a yearly maintenance program, by simply following the Preparation and Application sections above.

Worth the money

Needed to do our garden room that was starting to look whethered. After spending hours scrubbing it down with sugar soap we wanted a product that would last and leave it looking brand new. So glad we choice this one. Although on the expensive side it was worth every penny. Went on evenly and left the wood looking good as new. Also it went a long way with a little bit left over.

Great product and easy to apply

I used a different wood treatment last time on my sheds from wood finishes direct and it was good but this product is better as it brings out the colour and grain in the wood and was very easy to apply with a pump sprayer.

Satisfied that is one of the best

Have used this product on a shed made of red cedar and it protects the wood with no problems whatsoever. Now using it on a gazebo and I know it will be equally protected. Although expensive it is well worth it rest assured.

Easy to apply. Sun baked wood so I applied three coats to be on safe side. Dries to a silky wax finish which repels water in a most satisfying way

Good interim treatment

I wanted a treatment I could use to maintain the waterproofing on a shed treated last year with tinted wood preserver. This was clear and fitted the bill perfectly.

I've used this product for several years on my summer house and it seems to do what it's supposed too.

Seems to be protecting the wood, as advertised.

Bought on my son in law's recommendation to protect a new wooden fence. It doesn't really colour the wood, just gives it a golden tint. Easy to apply. Seems a bit pricey but looking at my son in law's shed after several year's weathering looks to be worth paying a bit more.

Good product - will buy more

I bought this on WTD's reccomendations. I applied over a 'Protek Wood Preserver ++'. I will buy more and apply additional coats. I noticed that after a rain shower the water was staying as droplets on the surface.

Brilliant product

We just bought a new shed and needed to waterproof it, looked at lots of different products and decided on the log cabin treatment and we are so glad we did. Heaven knows with all the rain we have had lately it was going to test it out . We put 3 coats on and the rain just runs right off. Excellent product!!!
