Total Wood Preserver

1. Make sure the surface is clean and dry. Use a stiff broom to get rid of any ingrained dirt.
2. If you have mould, algae or fungi, use a garden cleaner to get rid of them.
3. Decayed wood should be strengthened with a wood hardener.
4. If there is any paint, stain or varnish on the wood you will need to remove it. You can do this with a stripper or sanding the surface.

1. Give the tin a good shake to mix the colour pigments.
2. Dip the end grains into the preserver so it completely soaks into the wood.
3. Use a brush to apply preserver to the rest of the wood.
4. Wait 24 hours for the first coat to dry.
5. Add a second coat, following the same process.
6. If you need to carry out any repairs or gluing, wait until the second coat is totally dry.

To keep your wood in a good condition, apply a new coat every year.
