EPA# 51578-1 TWP 1500 PRODUCT USES: Perfect for old or new decks, outdoor furniture, spas, picnic tables, benches, playground equipment, decks, gazebos, shutters, doors, windows, and boats (teak). SURFACE PREPARATION: NEW WOOD: All new wood must be thoroughly wetted by rain or tap water at least twice to open wood grain and remove excess surface tannins. Allow a minimum of 48 hours of good drying conditions before applying TWP. 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 1500. PRESSURE TREATED WOOD: Allow to age 1 year before treating with TWP. 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 application due to uneven penetration and discoloration of aged finish. METHOD OF APPLICATION: MIX TWP 1500 THOROUGHLY BEFORE USING! Apply with brush, roll, spray, 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 should be applied at 150450 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 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: 48-96 hours depending on drying conditions. Drying conditions will vary greatly depending on applied film thickness and weather conditions. THINNING AND CLEANUP: No thinning required. 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. |
