STORAGE:  Cool and dry, please see label for expiration date. Close lid tightly after use.

PREPARATION:  The surface must be dry (moisture content under 15 %), solid, able to absorb and free of resin and dust. For windows and other dimensionally stable timbers, moisture content for coniferous wood or deciduous tropical wood should be below 15% and not exceed 12 % in native deciduous woods. Pre-treat resin rich woods by brushing with SVALOS Thinner No. 222 and exotic woods with KIROS Thinner No. 710, then rub dry.

APPLICATION:  Prime with ADAO External Primer No. 259 or BIO Wood Primer Exterior. Unabsorbed oil is to be removed after 20 minutes. Sand before proceeding. Apply two thin coats of KALDET All Weather Stain No. 281 within the space of four weeks. A third coat should be applied to weather exposed areas. The second application should have the final coat appearance, "runs" indicate that the application was too heavy. After 10 - 30 minutes, smooth the painted surface with a brush in the direction of the wood grain. Please, pay attention to the drying times!

DISPOSAL:  According to locally regulated laws.

IMPORTANT TIPS:  Stir thoroughly before using. Always pre-test. When purchasing more than one container of colored wood stain, be sure all containers have the same batch number. Skim off eventual film before using. Ensure proper ventilation during application and drying.

With oak or other woods containing incompatibilities such as tannic acid or dyes, or with sanded, stripped, pre-treated, or stained wood surfaces, discoloration is possible within one week. After priming, seams of new windows should be treated only once with a very thin coat of KALDET All Weather Stain No. 281. Silicone sealant should be applied only after complete drying and should not be painted over with KALDET All Weather Stain No.281. Linseed- oil based putty can be painted over after one day.

When mixing different colors of KALDET, always apply a test coat as some blends may experience pigment separation.
