Overview

Dulux Trade Ultimate Woodstain is a solvent-based exterior wood stain that offers 10 Year Weathershield Protection.

Preparation

For the best results, ensure that wood to be stained is clean, dry and free from all surface contaminates.

Previously Painted Timbers

  • Remove all traces of paint, varnish and other surface coatings by taking the timber back to bare wood by sanding or using a suitable paint stripper
  • Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1970s painted surfaces as they may contain harmful lead

Old Timbers

  • Remove and treat any mould, algae, lichen or moss with a suitable mould & mildew cleaner
  • Remove defective glazing material, clean the rebates and any loose or open joints
  • Replace any rotten wood and troublesome knots with preservative treated timber
  • Thoroughly rub down all surfaces in the direction of the grain to remove any grey, weathered wood
  • Wipe down sanded wood with a cloth dampened with methylated spirit to remove all traces of sanding dust or alternatively, use a vacuum cleaner

Bare or New Timbers

  • Fill any surface defects, open joints, etc. and replace any missing glazing material
  • Do not use linseed oil putty for glazing (or making good), use external beads set in an appropriate non-setting mastic or a special glazing compound
  • New joinery is often factory primed using a stain basecoat (also called a dual-purpose primer) - these materials quickly erode when left exposed and may need to be re-primed

Application

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

Stir contents of tin thoroughly before and during use to ensure a consistent finish. Do not apply if surface or air temperature is 5°C or below. This product should not be sprayed.

  1. Apply 2-3 coats of Dulux Woodstain with a good quality paint brush
  2. Allow 16 hours to fully dry

Please Note: This product is not suitable for use on exterior timber where there is severe checking and splitting of the wood caused by long-term weather exposure, or on any resinous wood or woodwork with a history of blistering.

For the best colour consistency, purchase sufficient Dulux Trade Wood Stain for each project. If large areas are to be stained, it is recommended that multiple tins are poured into a large container and mixed thoroughly to ensure that all of the stain is of the same shade. The stain can then be decanted back into the individual tins for storage once mixed if required.

Aftercare

To maintain the finish, simply apply a fresh coat of Dulux Trade Ultimate Woodstain as required, following the manufacturers maintenance instructions and the preparation and application instructions above.

Expensive but worth it

I painted my new Hardwood drive gates a few years ago and still looks freshly painted, it hasn't faded, cracked or peeled, I've since done the garden furniture as I love it. Worth every penny and couldn't go back to the cheap stuff... you do get what you pay for, I'd certainly recommend.

Looks good quality paint so long as you follow the instructions.

Too early to say whether it will stand the test of time as it says it could last up to ten years. I’ve had many compliments on how good it looks.

Good quality finish, easy to apply. Pleased.

Good quality finish, gives a good coating of the timber, appears that the wood will be protected from the environment for some time. Previously pleased with Dulux Trade products, they seem to last. Good fast service from Wood Finishes Direct.

The only exterior wood stain to use

As an ex painter and decorator, dulux weathershield was the only exterior wood stain we would use, because it’s the best.

Mike Denham
Easy to apply

I have used this before, and I prefer to apply one coat, followed by two coats of ronseal exterior wood varnish. This allows the wood to show through and avoids a paint-like appearance.

You do not need a second coating as it covers first time saving money

Faultless you get what you pay for

B

Great coating

After asking for advice on this site, I was advised on this product. It covers my oil based previous coat really great. Within a day it rained and you could see how well it covered and how waterproofed it was.

This is a brilliant Woodstain produced by Dulux. Brilliant gloss finish, looks like a plastic coa...

This is a great product produced by Dulux, it was competitively priced and looks great. One side of our house gets the sun all day, the other half gets none. Will have to see how the stain stands up to the two extremes.

MR .Maurice Cooper
not as good as the original it is like paint not as good a finish as dulux all-in-one varnish

not as good as the original solvent based interior & exterior woodsheen all-in-one varnish i tried every where to buy some more, do you still make this one if so where can i buy it. the water based varnish does not last as long on the window seals
