This wood treatment is a type of chemical treatment designed to protect wooden surfaces from decay, rot, insect infestation, or prevent re-infestation. Typically available in liquid form, it is applied to the surface of the wood to penetrate its fibres and create a protective barrier. They may contain biocides, fungicides, and other additives that inhibit the growth of mould, mildew, and wood-destroying organisms, and prevent attack from woodworm and pests. How to Use Wood Treatment To effectively use Cuprinol 5 Star Wood Treatment, ensure the surface is clean and free from any previous finishes. Then, apply it evenly using a brush requiring typically 2-3 coats, applying the subsequent coats after the previous has soaked in. Once applied, allow the preservative to dry fully before installing plastic or rubber-backed layers (eg. flooring) on top. Regular maintenance and inspection are key to ensuring long-term protection. Where to Use Wood Preserver Wood preservers are typically used on wooden flooring, under flooring and in roof spaces.
