Functions
TEXTROL® HES is a onecoat, penetrating oil finish for softwoods and European hardwoods. Developed to penetrate deep in to the wood, TEXTROL® HES has a high solids content that protects the wood against the vagaries of the weather and UV rays. Having a matt-sheen finish,
TEXTROL® HES enhances the grain and natural beauty of the wood.
WHERE TO USE
- Exterior use only.
- Softwoods - Cedar, Larch, Spruce, Pressure Treated Softwood, THT (see restrictions)...
- European hardwoods - Oak, Chestnut, Beech...
- Horizontal and vertical surfaces.
- Rough sawn or planed wood.
- Decking, Cladding, Garden Furniture, Shingles, Fencing, Chalets...
RECOMMENDATIONS BEFORE Application
Surfaces must be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease, grime, mildew and previous coatings.
Treat mildew with a 50/50 bleach/water solution. Scrub solution on to surface and allow to stand for 10-15 minutes; rinse thoroughly.
After cleaning and/or stripping, allow wood to dry 2-3 good drying days or until it has reached a moisture content of 18 % or less before applying finish.
TEXTROL® HES can only be applied to bare wood surfaces or weathered surfaces previously finished with TEXTROL® HES.
ALL other finishes MUST be completely and thoroughly removed.
If necessary sand surface after cleaning and/or stripping (80 grit paper).
New wood surfaces:
Rough Sawn:
- Apply TEXTROL® HES.
Planed:
- New smooth, planed wood has a hard shiny surface called mill-glaze that prevents maximum penetration and adhesion of any finish, this should be removed to ensure maximum performance of the finish.
- Treat with AQUANETT® or PREPDECK® and neutralise with NET-TROL® OR sand with 80 grit paper to open the wood pores, dust off and degrease surface with Methylated Spirits.
Weathered wood surfaces (untreated):
- Wood that has weathered longer than 12 months or turned grey should be cleaned with NET-TROL® to remove all loose wood fibres, dirt and other surface contaminants. If wood is severely contaminated, clean with AQUANETT® or PREPDECK® and neutralise with NET-TROL®.
Previously coated surfaces (oiled, paint, stain, varnish...):
- All previous coatings must be completely and thoroughly removed.
- Oils and sealers: Strip with AQUANETT®* or PREPDECK®, neutralise with NET-TROL®.
- Solvent (oil or alkyd based finishes): Strip with DILUNETT® neutralise with NET-TROL®.
- Acrylic finishes (Water-based): Strip with PREPDECK® neutralise with NET-TROL®.
- Other finishes i.e. 2 pack epoxies, urethanes... Strip with CDKP® 90*, neutralise surface with a suitable solvent - Acetone, White Spirits, Methylated Spirits...
Application
- Use as is. Do not thin.
- Stir can well before and during application.
- Apply a single liberal application of TEXTROL® HES working in the direction of the grain.
- After 15-30 min's brush out excess to improve penetration and give a uniform finish.
- Note: Do not create a film. TEXTROL® HES is not a surface coating, its place is in the wood not on the surface.
Maintenance
- Approximately once every 2 years depending on wood species, age of wood at time of initial application e.g. new or weathered and colour used.
- TEXTROL® HES will gradually lighten over time due to exposure to the sun and UV rays.
- Inspect finish bi-annually.
- Maintenance is due when the finish has severely faded or the wood takes on a weathered grey appearance. Surfaces with harsh exposure to the sun, weather and foot traffic will show wear more quickly than other areas.
- Areas retaining good colour do not need re-treating.
- Clean surface with NET-TROL®*.
- Re-apply TEXTROL® HES as directed under "Application".
- Cleaning with NET-TROL®* once a year between treatments to remove dirt and other surface contamination will renew the appearance of the finish and wood.
