Typical Uses:
- Natural oil for decking.
- Outdoor timber sealer and protector.
- Decks, fences and retaining walls.
Features:
• Mould, mildew and water resistant.
• Ready to use – no mixing required.
• Reduces the greying effect of timber.
• Coverage: Softwoods/ Hardwoods: 6-8/8-10m² per litre (dependant on porosity and application technique).
• Will produce a warm, golden tone to pine and maple. Porous woods like walnut will darken considerably. Dense cabinet hardwoods will not absorb readily.
Application:
New Timber
1. Clean surface with Diggers Timber Cleaner. Remove heavy deposits of wax and grease with Diggers Wax & Grease Remover or Diggers Mineral Turpentine.
2. Once dry coat with Diggers Anti-Mould Linseed Oil. Drying time is dependant on weather conditions but as a guideline allow approximately 24 hours between coats. Clean excess oil with a clean lint free cloth to avoid the surface drying sticky.
Previously Coated/ Weathered Timber
1. Clean and remove previous coating by sanding the surface. Wash and coat as indicated
above.
How does Linseed Oil work?
When linseed oil is applied to a porous surface it fills the pores and as it is exposed to the
air it gels to form a protective film. The film is generally impervious to water, heat, scratches
and most stains.
NOTE: Timber exposed to the elements will have higher absorption rate.
NOTE: Soak rags in water as spontaneous ignition may occur on drying. Dispose of rags by
controlled incineration or at an approved landfill.
Safety:
Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye / face protection when using this product.
