Product Information

Full details

Eco Wood Treatment is for anyone looking to protect and enhance untreated bare wood with a natural, long-lasting finish. Its key benefit is a one-time application that provides maintenance-free protection and a beautiful, weathered silver patina. A key caveat is that it must be applied to bare, untreated wood only. This organic, powder-based treatment uses mineral compounds to penetrate wood fibers, offering protection against the elements without harmful chemicals, making it safe for gardens and the environment.

FAQs

Can Eco Wood Treatment be applied to previously painted wood?

No, it must be applied to untreated bare wood for proper penetration and finish. Existing paint or stain must be removed first.

What is the correct mixing amount for Eco Wood Treatment?

Mix the contents of one bag with 22 Litres of water for general coverage, or 4 Litres of water for smaller projects or focused application. Stir until fully dissolved.

Which tools can I use to apply this wood treatment?

You can apply Eco Wood Treatment with a brush, sprayer, or roller directly onto the wood surface.

How long should the wood remain dry after application?

Keep the wood dry for at least 24 hours after applying the treatment to allow for proper penetration and curing.

How much area will the mixed solution cover?

When mixed as directed with 22 Litres of water, it covers approximately 750 sq ft of timber. Each 4.5 litre mix treats approximately 150 square feet.

What finish should I expect after using Eco Wood Treatment?

The treatment enhances the natural beauty of the wood and leaves a silver patina or aged weathered finish that will not fade, peel or flake over time.

Can Eco Wood Treatment be used on raised beds?

Yes, it is completely safe to use on raised beds as it contains no harmful chemicals and is VOC free, making it safe for growing fruit and vegetables.

How long does the Eco Wood Treatment last?

Once applied, the treatment provides long term protection and does not require reapplication. The color naturally matures into a weathered finish over time.

Troubleshooting

Product applied to painted or stained wood

Eco Wood Treatment must be applied to bare, untreated wood. If applied over existing finishes, it will not penetrate or bond correctly. The finish may need to be stripped from the wood before reapplication.

Wood is not dry after 24 hours

Ensure the wood surface was dry before application and protect it from rain, dew, or excessive moisture for at least 24 hours post-application. High humidity or prolonged damp conditions can affect drying time.

Uneven color or finish development

Ensure uniform application across the wood surface. Variations in wood porosity or exposure to elements can affect the final patina. Consistent application and natural weathering over time will usually even out the appearance.

Wood appears too dark initially

The product may darken the wood slightly upon initial application. This is normal. The wood will mature into its characteristic silver or aged patina over time as it weathers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the wood surface is untreated and bare. Remove any old paint, stain, or sealant.
  2. Mix the powder from one bag with 22 Litres (or 4 Litres for smaller projects) of water. Stir thoroughly until dissolved.
  3. Apply the mixed solution directly to the wood using a brush, sprayer, or roller. Ensure full coverage of the wood surface.
  4. Allow the treated wood to dry completely. It is crucial to keep the wood dry for at least 24 hours after application to ensure proper penetration and bonding.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with: Untreated bare wood (softwood and hardwood).
  • Not compatible with: Previously painted, stained, or sealed wood. Do not apply over existing finishes.

Care:

  • Product Storage: Store the unused powder in a cool, dry place, sealed in its original packaging.
  • Mixed Solution: Use the mixed solution promptly after preparation for optimal results. Do not store mixed solution.
  • Treated Wood: Once applied, the treated wood requires no further maintenance or re-staining. Cleaning can be done with a damp cloth if necessary.
