FAQs

Can I apply Eco Wood Treatment over existing paint or stain?

No, Eco Wood Treatment must be applied to bare, untreated wood only. It needs to penetrate the wood fibers directly to provide effective and long-lasting protection.

How long does the protection last?

The protection is long-lasting and requires no maintenance or re-staining after the single application. The finish matures over time but continues to protect the wood from the elements.

Is this product safe for use around vegetable gardens and pets?

Yes, Eco Wood Treatment is made from 100% organic mineral compounds, contains no toxins or VOCs, and leaves no harmful residue. It is safe for use on raised beds for growing fruit and vegetables, and is also safe for bees and other garden wildlife.

What is the coverage rate of Eco Wood Treatment?

When mixed with 22 Litres of water, one bag covers approximately 750 sq ft. A 4.5-litre mix (approximately 1 gallon) treats about 150 sq ft.

What is the final color of the treated wood?

The treatment enhances the natural wood grain and matures into a weathered silver or aged tone. The exact appearance can vary over time based on exposure to sunlight and moisture.

How should I store unused Eco Wood Treatment powder?

Store the unused powder in a cool, dry place. Ensure the container is sealed to protect it from moisture.

Can I use Eco Wood Treatment indoors?

Yes, it can be used indoors on untreated wood. Ensure good ventilation during application.

What happens if the wood gets wet before 24 hours after application?

It is essential to keep the wood dry for at least 24 hours post-application for the treatment to properly bond. If the wood gets wet prematurely, the protection may be compromised, and reapplication might be necessary once the wood is dry.

Troubleshooting

Wood remains darker than expected after application.

This is a normal initial effect. The color will mature over time into a natural silver or aged patina, depending on environmental exposure (sunlight and moisture).

Treatment did not penetrate properly or is peeling.

Ensure the wood was completely bare and untreated before application. Re-apply to bare wood if any previous finishes were present.

Solution seems difficult to mix or contains lumps.

Ensure you are using clean water and stirring vigorously. Allow the mixture to sit for a short period and stir again. Use the solution promptly after mixing.

Wood was exposed to rain within 24 hours of application.

The treatment may not have fully bonded. While some protection may remain, reapplication might be necessary after the wood dries completely to ensure full protection.
