Overview

Sadolin Quick Drying Wood Preserver is an ideal preservative treatment for bare and new timber prior to the application of a suitable top coat. Gives protection against wood rotting fungi and wood destroying insects.

Preparation

Bare or New Wood Preparation

  1. Ensure timber surfaces are clean, dry and free from all dirt, dust and other contaminants
  2. The moisture content of the wood should not exceed 18% prior to coating
  3. Resinous deposits on the surface of the timber should be removed with a scraper or abrasive paper
  4. Any remaining resinous residues should be removed by scrubbing with methylated spirits
  5. Fill any gaps or imperfections in the wood surface with an appropriate wood filler

Previously Coated or Old Wood Preparation

  1. Any existing coatings should be completely removed by sanding or with a suitable varnish / paint stripper and remover prior to applying the wood preservative
  2. Grey denatured timber must be mechanically sanded back to a bare clean surface before preserving wood

Application

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

Do not apply if there is a risk of rain, or when air / substrate temperatures are below 8°C or the relative humidity is above 80% during application or drying periods. Protect from frost and rain until dry. Failure to meet these requirements may adversely affect the drying and protection properties of the preservative.

Ensure Sadolin Wood Preserver is thoroughly stirred before and during application. This product is ready to use straight from the tin and must not be thinned.

  1. Apply Sadolin Quick Drying Wood Preserver liberally with a good quality synthetic fibre brush or by short time immersion (dipping or deluging, for 3-10 minutes)
  2. End grains can be treated by brush application or by dipping in to the preservative until the timber is unable to absorb any more
  3. Allow to dry for a minimum of 24 hours
  4. Apply a second coat as above once the first has fully dried

FAQ

Does Sadolin Quick Drying Wood Preserver need a stir before use?

Yes, we always recommend stirring the product through before use to ensure the content of the tin are well mixed for best results.

Can you use a roller to apply Sadolin Quick Drying Wood Preserver?

Sadolin recommend brush or dip application so that the timber has a chance to absorb the product. You can use a roller for application, but we advise to go over with a brush afterwards to ensure that it has not pooled on the surface.

Does Sadolin Quick Drying Wood Preserver offer good protection for patio wooden tables?

Sadolin Quick Drying Wood Preserver offers good base protection against wood decay, fungi, and blue stain, which makes it suitable for initial protection on outdoor wood like patio tables. This type of product is only intended as a primer and preservative to prepare the wood for a topcoat. It doesn't provide full weather resistance on its own and lacks the durable finish needed to withstand direct exposure to rain, sunlight, and general wear and tear associated with a garden furniture.

For best results, after applying Sadolin Quick Drying Wood Preserver, it's essential to apply a durable, weather-resistant topcoat, such as Sadolin Classic Wood Protection followed by Sadolin Extra Durable Woodstain. These topcoats will seal the wood and add the necessary protection against moisture, UV rays, and everyday use.

Great preservative

Used Sadolin preservative along with Sadolin classic and Sadolin Extra woodstain to give full protection to a mahogany bench. Excellent product.

Excellent purchase

It is easy to use, really seems to soak in to the wood. The only negative is the cap is a bit awkward….. and time will tell how long it preserves the wood for.

Time will tell if the product performs as well as the manufacturers claim. Not possible to say at this early stage but I have no reason to suspect that is will not.

Nearly all of my log cabin has had the recommended 2 coats. Most of the interior has not been over-painted, so there will be areas which are easily monitored to see the effectiveness of the preserver.

Mr Karl Schafer
Wishy Washy!!

In all fairness the end result of this product was very good and one could see the results of your effort the following day. But as for putting it on, well, it would have been easier painting with water! Being so watery a lot was wasted and brushing it on overhead was a nightmare. You need to be covered from head to toe to prevent being covered in the stuff, plus the fact you had no indication of what had been covered. I had to make pencil marks as I went along to save me going over the same patch time after time.

Hello mr Schafer, It is a very watery product and application can be little on the messy side. I am sorry to hear that it was a problem for you and should you wish to discuss further please feel free to email me on wood @finishes.direct Kind regards Sam.

Excellent for treating new white wood

Easy to use (apart from being near-invisible once it has been applied). Brushes clean easily in warm water. Touch dry in an hour or so (summer).

Does the job well

This product is like milky water but once applied dries clear and is a real good basecoat for the Durable Clearcoat. Be warned though, some waste.

P
Paul Mahoney
Covers well, and soaks in quickly, reasonably low fume levels.

Dries quickly, and the first coat, when dry, does not seem to impair the absorption of subsequent coats. Based on previous use, should protect for a long period.

Good product

Purchased to treat new soffit boards, did the job well, soaked well into the wood; applied two coats; easy to clean brushes.

It's Sadolin so it works.

A great product that goes on easily. Its protecting my log cabin even before I get round to getting the top coat on. Good preparation should result in a long life.

Graham Tutt
Easy to use and wash brushes out. Soaks into the wood well.

The old vertical boards lasted twenty five years. This time, I soaked the bottom eight inches for ten minutes to stop the end grain going rotten. Cant do better than that all followed with one coat before a coat of Classic. BELT and BRACES

Application is fine, will need to wait a few years to see if it works

Not much to say, it is easy to apply. Seems fine and dries more quickly than many others. Only gave 4 * as I've no idea how it will work in the long run.

Quality product

It's Sadolin so it must be quality. Like water so it's rapidly absorbed and must work over time. I did not give 5 stars because it is completely clear so it's difficult to see where you've already coated.
