Always do a test area to assess performance and compatibility before starting any project. Follow the manufacturer's instructions at all times. Do not leave longer than recommended on veneered surfaces.
- Shake well to allow product to flow
- Apply liberally with a brush
- The product will need to be left on the surface between 30 to 45 minutes before removing
- Remove after required time with a scraper or a stainless steel scouring ball, do not use wire wool as this will cause rust to penetrate into wooden surfaces
- If required, apply a further coat and repeat
- Covering with a plastic film will assist in keeping the product adhered to the surface
- Once the surface has completely dried out, wash off any residue with a damp cloth or water
- Use sandpaper to remove any small traces of finish
Please Note: Cleaning of intricate carvings or mouldings is improved by wrapping in plastic sheeting (cling film or foil) and leaving over night. No special treatment after treatment required. Simply wash down with a wet cloth or, if using on external surfaces, use either a pressure hose or a plastic brush and a bucket of water.
