TWP ® 100 is a unique combination of chemicals, protecting and enhancing the natural warmth, beauty, and integrity of new and old wood. TWP ® 100 products penetrates deeply into the wood without excessive surface film build, highlighting existing grain patterns with amazing clarity and warmth. TWP ® 100 is specifically formulated for protection against water, sunlight, and surface mildew. TWP ® 100 reduces water absorption, the major cause of wood cracking and veneer siding de-lamination. TWP ® 100 forms a barrier which resists to intrusion of wood destroying organisms, which all cause structural problems and require wood replacement. TWP ® 100 is extremely lightfast, containing "ultraviolet light absorbers" TWP ® 100 is more resistant to cracking, peeling or blistering than most surface oriented stains on the market. Warning the natural color, while surface mildew speckles eliminate premature unsightly and black discoloration. Accelerated and natural weathering tests show superior performance compared to conventional clear and semi-transparent wood finishes. Many stains on the market are surface oriented and subject to peeling, blistering and chipping. TWP® 100 service life on properly cleaned, and prepared rough sawn vertical cedar siding is generally three to five years with a two coat application in moderate mold and decay climate zones. Areas in extreme mold and decay zones, such as Florida and other gulf coastal states, may require an additional service coat on portions of siding facing full sun southern exposure, within the warranty period. TWP® 100 is not intended for the control of termites or other wood destroying insects. TWP® 100 is an EPA registered wood preservative. EPA# 51578-1 TWP® 100 PRODUCT USES: TWP is perfect for old and new decks, spas, exterior furniture, tree houses/swing sets, hardwood decking, teak & mahogany, wooden doors, wood siding, log homes, porch decking, fences and shutters. *NOTE: 100 Clear is available as a sealer or blending base only to be followed by a tinted topcoat. 
top SURFACE PREPARATION: NEW WOOD: All new wood must be thoroughly saturated and exposed to either rain or water; three or more times to open the wood grain and remove excess surface tannins. Allow a minimum of 48 hours of good drying conditions before applying TWP® 100. OLD WOOD: Rinse surface with 3:1 mix of water and household bleach to remove mildew; use wood bleach to brighten wood and follow with 1500 p.s.i. power washer to remove dead surface fiber. Allow a minimum of 48 hours of good drying conditions before applying TWP® 100. PRESSURE TREATED WOOD: Allow at lest 1 month of age before treating with TWP® 100. PREVIOUSLY STAINED WOOD: Remove all of the old finish with power washing or paint stripper when necessary. Failure to remove the existing finish will result in a blotchy TWP® 100 applications due to uneven penetration and discoloration of aged finish. METHOD OF APPLICATION: MIX THOROUGHLY BEFORE USING TWP 100! Apply with brush, roll, spray, and wiping cloth or applicator pad. Do not apply below 40° F, if rain is anticipated with 48 hours or heavy dew is present. DIRECTIONS FOR USE: TWP® 100 should be applied at 100-400 sq.ft/gal. with brush, roll or spray. Rate will vary depending on wood porosity. Remove excess or puddled material that has not penetrated after 15 minutes with a paint pad or dry roller. Recoat over porous wood may be done as a wet on wet application. Allow to dry to touch overnight. Walking on TWP 100 before it is dry will cause tracking. Because horizontal surfaces are subject to harsher conditions (foot traffic, standing water, deck furniture, spills, etc.) than vertical surfaces, they may require more frequent maintenance coats. DRY TIME: 24-72 hours depending on drying conditions. Drying conditions will vary greatly depending on applied film thickness and weather conditions. THINNING AND CLEANUP: No thinning required of TWP® 100. Use mineral spirits for equipment clean up. Rag Disposal- Lay used rags in a single layer outdoors and allow to air dry for 24 hours. To minimize the chance of spontaneous combustion typical of natural drying oils, place rags in water filled metal container for disposal. WARNING: This product is toxic to fish. Do not contaminate water by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes. PHYSICAL DATA: (Typical for all of the TWP® 100 series)
