- After using New Timber Prep, wash the surface with Cabot’s Deck Clean, following the label instructions.
- Use the squeegee on Cabot’s Deck Prep brush to remove any excess water from the surface.
- Allow the timber to dry for at least 1 hour before coating.
- Note: Cooler conditions may slow down drying time.
- Fill any cracks or holes with a suitable filler.
- Sand all surfaces to a flat finish.
- Remove any greyed timber.
- Dust off thoroughly.
- Wash with Cabot’s Deck Clean.
- Check if the surface is sound.
- If not, scrape off all loose and flaking paint.
- Fill cracks or holes with a suitable filler.
- Sand all surfaces to a flat finish.
- Remove any greyed timber.
- Remove all dust before proceeding.
Note:
Ensure surface is sound¹ and clear of any loose sand or cement.
