Application
Always test a small area of the surface to be treated to ensure you are happy with the finished results
- Apply liberally with a brush.
- The product will need to be left on the surface for between 30 to 45 minutes before removing. Do not leave longer than recommended on veneered surfaces.
- Remove after required time with a scraper or a stainless steel scouring ball. Do not use wire wool as this will cause rust to penetrate into wooden surfaces.
- If required, apply a further coat and repeat. Covering with a plastic film will assist in keeping the product adhered to the surface.
- Once the surface has completely dried out, wash off any residue with a damp cloth or water.
- Use sandpaper to remove any small traces of finish.
- For prolonged use, or if removing toxic and/or lead-based paints, wear protective gloves.
Always follow manufacturer's instructions found on the tin
