Choose your timber condition

1. Do not shake can
2. Stir thoroughly with a broad flat paddle before and during use.
3. Apply with a good quality brush, short nap roller or spray gun. If spraying, back brushing is recommended. If brushing or rolling, always apply in the direction of the grain. 
4. Allow to dry for a minimum of 2 hours. For best results, lightly sand to remove any grain raise using 240 grit paper. Remove all sanding dust. 
5. Apply second & third coats as above.

Once the surface becomes excessively scratched and worn, it's time for a re-coat.

1. Thoroughly clean the surface with Cabot's Floor Clean and allow to dry.
2. Apply one coat to a small test area. Allow to dry for 24 hours. Press sticky tape firmly to the surface and pull off quickly. If the coating comes off, sand back further to a sound surface. If the coating adheres apply 2 coats across the entire surface.
