It is particularly important to treat areas of newly installed lead that are subject to water flowing over the surface onto surrounding areas as staining of tile and brick will be more severe in such circumstances. The no spill pack means no more spills or drips to clean up, and easier application.1 x Everbuild Lead Mate Patination Oil 500ml.

FAQs
How much area does a 500ml bottle cover?
Coverage will vary depending on the application method and the porosity of the lead. A 500ml bottle should cover a significant area, but it is best to consult the product label for specific coverage details.
Can I use this on old lead?
This product is primarily designed for use on new leadwork. It may not be as effective on weathered or oxidized lead.
How long does the protection last?
The duration of protection varies depending on environmental conditions. Reapplication may be necessary over time.
What should I do if the oil comes into contact with my skin?
Wash the affected area with soap and water. If irritation persists, consult a doctor.
How should I dispose of the product?

Can I use this product on other metals?

Troubleshooting
Oil is not spreading evenly.
Ensure the lead surface is clean and dry. Use a clean brush or cloth and apply a thinner, more even coat. If needed, a second coat can be applied after the first has dried.
White residue appears after application.
This may be due to over-application or environmental factors. Ensure you've applied a single, even coat. In some cases, a light wipe with a clean cloth after drying may resolve this.
