Overview
Liberon Extreme Decking Paint is ideal for exterior wooden decking: soft, hard, exotic, smooth or grooved. Direct on all surfaces: no cleaning, no undercoat and no wiping. Liberon Extreme Decking Paint is the solution to embellish and renovate your exterior woods. The opaque finish will give a second life to woods.
Preparation
To ensure a perfect finish on timber previously treated with sealer/ paint/ Wood stains/ sand the existing treatment to expose the bare wood. Ensure the wood is dust-free. On exotic wood and hard woods, dilute the first coat with 10% water. One final check: The ‘Water Drop Test’. Place a small amount of water on the timber. If the water droplet absorbs into the timber, you may apply the Extreme Decking Paint. If the water droplet remains on the timber surface, the Extreme Decking Paint will not adhere. Degrease the surface with denatured alcohol. On new timber, wait three months before applying Extreme Decking Paint; this will then allow the timber to absorb this paint fully. On exotic and hard woods or oily timber: remove any excess oil using denatured alcohol.
Application
Ideal application conditions: between 12 degrees and 25 degrees, in dry weather. We wouldn’t recommend applying the Extreme Decking Paint in strong winds and when bad weather is forecast.Stir the product well before and during use. Stir the paint with a mixer or wide stick, working around the bottom of the tin to mix it well. Apply the product with a brush between the grooves and edges in 2 sqm areas at a time, the paint with the roller in various directions, (top to bottom and sideways), avoiding excessive application. Allow 8H before applying a second coat. On a highly porous or highly exposed decking, a third coat may be required. Ideally allow a further 48 Hours before before light usage on the decking. If there are any signs of heavy wear or surface damaged, we would advise applying a maintenance coat. Woods with little absorption (Iroko, Wenge, Larch etc) require a regular application of a maintenance coat. Applying further coats of extreme Decking Paint: Wash existing timber with a pressure washer and remove any foliage/ moss and excess oil stains. Remove as much of the paint as possible from the tools after use. Do not dispose of residues and washing water/ solvents in the sink, toilet, sewer, bin in order to avoid discharge into the environment.
