Woodstain
Don t:
" Stir or thin wood stains before using
" Use over varnish, paint or linseed oil putty
" Apply in temperatures below 5°C
For best results use a varnish and woodstain brush, made especially for use with wood
care products. Brush on evenly, avoiding over-spreading.
Coat all surfaces to provide total protection. Pay special attention to the treatment of
tops and bottoms of doors, undersides of sills, sashes and end grain.
The original colour and porosity of your wood will influence the final colour of your
surface after staining.
Previously stained wood needs one coat and bare wood need two coats. Allow 16 24
hours drying time.
Previously stained wood
On previously stained wood, treat bare or bleached areas with wood dye and allow to
dry. Touch in these areas with exterior wood stain and allow to dry. Lightly rub down
before applying a complete top coat.
Refinishing woodstains
Woodstains deteriorate over a period of 2 4 years, depending on the severity of the
weather, and they can become very dirty.
To refinish your surface, first wash it down, ensuring you remove all grease. Allow
the surface to dry and apply a coat of woodstain. If a second coat is needed, sand
first coat lightly and dust off.
Applying clear varnish
Yacht varnish
Yacht varnish is generally used for exterior wood. Brush on, using the best brush you
can afford, and rub down lightly between coats. Thin the first coat: 5 parts varnish
to 1 part white spirit. Apply 3 4 further unthinned coats allowing varnish to dry
thoroughly between coats.

HOW TO: Use varnishes, woodstains and dyes
Applying clear varnish (cont.)
Take care to treat the timber all round, especially the end grain. This prevents water
penetrating behind the varnished surface.
Clear polyurethane varnish
Polyurethane varnish can be used inside and out.
Thin the first coat: 10 parts varnish to 1 part white spirit and brush on. When dry,
rub down with fine abrasive paper, then apply a second unthinned coat. Apply further
coats until you have the finish you want. Allow 6 hours drying time between coats.
Acrylic varnish
Apply liberally across the grain with a clean brush. To finish off, draw the brush lightly
in the direction of the grain. Allow three coats for maximum durability.
The water content of the varnish may cause the first coat to raise the grain. If this
happens, lightly sand the surface. You can use fine glass or garnet paper, but fine
'wet or dry' paper and water is best. Wash the sanded surface with clean water.
Apply acrylic varnish to interior and exterior wood and to floors. Bare wood may
be stained before varnishing.
Cleaning brushes
If you've used:
" Wood dye
clean with white spirit or methylated spirit
" Woodstain
clean with white spirit or cellulose thinner
" Preservative, yacht varnish, polyurethane varnish
clean with white spirit
" Acrylic varnish
clean with water if the brush has hardened, soften with cellulose thinner.
After cleaning with solvent, wash all brushes with detergent and warm water, rinse
HB
thoroughly in cold water, and dry carefully.
