SURFACE PREPARATION†

The following steps and products are required:

- If needed, lightly sand to remove any wood fibers/fuzz.
- Allow the area to dry at least 24 hours before coating.
- When stripping is not needed, the surface MUST be prepared with a wood cleaner to remove mill glaze and clean the wood surface.

- To remove loose and failing coatings or wood fibers, use a wood stain & finish stripper followed by a wood cleaner & brightener to neutralize the wood.
- After using a stripper or cleaner & brightener, rinse the surface thoroughly with a garden hose or pressure washer. When rinsing with a pressure washer, use the broadest spray pattern while keeping the nozzle at least 24" away from the surface.
