About this deal

Barrettine’s Wood Protector is a wood sealer for rough, sawn or smooth timber. It contains water repellent resins and a biocide film wood preserver to prevent the surface growth of mould/algae and together this helps reduce decay, swelling, twisting of wood. Pigments have good UV fade resistance and will help protect wood from UV damage. Of course, always read the directions for use on the label of your specific copper green product to get the most correct instructions. Copper Green Wood Preservative – Conclusion

Wood Treatment | Woodcare | Screwfix

The final colour finish can vary considerably due to the age, type & condition of the timber being treated. We always recommend carrying out a test area first in an inconspicuous area to make sure you are happy with the final dried colour. Our main complaint is that there’s no clear version, so you have to choose a colour – and the waterproof finish is difficult to paint over if you don’t like the shade. The six colours are lovely, though, and include Forest Oak, Autumn Gold and Silver Copse. On the other hand, borate-based wood preservatives are water-based with a significantly less offensive odor. These are often used on wood for interior framing, like sill plates, sheathing and furring strips. For use on bare wood which will be over-coated, for example with Barrettine Log Cabin Treatment or opaque paint, or physically protected from the elements. The main reason of copper being an active compound in such products is its antimicrobial nature and a broad activity against wide range of fungi, bacteria and insects.In a moment we’ll reveal the best wood preserver you can buy for different jobs, indoors and out. But first, we’ll explain how to choose the right product for protecting the wood in your home and garden. Varnish, by contrast, is a topcoat. It won’t protect the wood on its own. Same goes for paint, wax and wood oil. So, if you want your woodwork to last, start with a few coats of wood preserver, wait until they’re fully dry, then go ahead with the varnish or other decorative topcoat of your choice. Can I use wood preserver on its own, without a topcoat? Brush, dip or roller in suitable conditions. (When used outdoors make sure weather conditions are dry and still). So, you can potentially use it on your old shed, but you should prepare the wood first. Otherwise you’re wasting your time and money. It should be noted that the above products are preventative treatments and these products are unlikely to kill/control mould spores already present within the wood. If this is suspected, Barrettine Mould and Mildew Cleaner should be used, prior to coating the wood. The bottom of wooden structures e.g. sheds will also require more frequent treatment with Mould and Mildew Cleaner, as the action of rain splashing on the ground will distribute mould spores onto the wood. Frequent treatment with Mould and Mildew Cleaner can prolong the life of the wood coating. Also, repeat and periodic re-treatments using the above wood care products will enhance and protect the appearance, and prolong the life of the wood.

Whatever colour or non-colour you go for, at least you won’t have to put up with the fluorescent yellowy green colour of creosote, which used to be the only wood preserver you could get. Thankfully creosote – noxious, toxic and highly flammable – is no longer sold to the general public. Are wood preservers all solvent-based? I’m worried about fumes indoors. Barrettine’s Wood Protector is an ideal treatment for outdoor Treated timber structures such as Sheds, Fences, Trellis, Pergola and timber Gazeboes. As a wood sealer it provides excellent water repellency/beading. Oil / Spirit based for deeper penetration leaving a transparent/translucent finish colour effect to wood, where the grain texture is still visible.Clean tools and equipment immediately after use with warm, soapy water. If product has dried, mineral spirits should be used. Clean up over-spray, drips or splashes on surrounding surfaces with fresh water as soon as possible. Dried spatters or spills can be removed with mineral spirits or lacquer thinner. Our final entry is a technique rather than a treatment. Charring creates a hard surface on the wood, making it more resistant to insects, moisture and (perhaps counter-intuitively) fire. Make certain the wood is free of bark, then immerse in product for 12 to 48 hours or until the sapwood is completely penetrated. Ensure wood to be treated is dry, free from dirt and repellent coatings such as paint or varnish. (remove and sand down as required). Cuprinol Wood Preserver Clear is a colourless general-purpose preserver for interior* or exterior use. It gives deep penetrating protection to sound wood against decay, mould and blue-staining fungi.

Most wood preserver is a clear liquid that darkens the wood’s natural colour, but you can also get wood preserver that contains coloured dye, so it stains at the same time as protecting. Whether you go for clear or coloured is a matter of taste. Wood preserver is designed to be applied on freshly sawn or sanded wood. You’ll get the best out of it if you sand down whatever wood you use it on, or at least pressure-wash and scrub it. PenaShield Clear Wood Preservative is a notable example. It goes on clear and absorbs deep into the wood, protecting it from the inside. Once dry and cured, wood treated with this can be painted or sealed. If you’re touching up the ends of pressure-treated lumber, or blending pressure-treated and non-pressure-treated lumber on a project, go with Rust-Oleum’s Woodlife CopperCoat. Another copper naphthenate, CopperCoat doesn’t contain any tinting to hide the green coloration caused by the copper. The only concern related with the product is its strong smell and thus it should be used only for outdoor purposes.

Other compounds such as copper azoles, alkaline copper quaternary, micronized copper came in the market as an upgrade to the copper green. The spray-can format also makes cleanup a breeze, with no rags or brushes to worry about. If you’re looking at a large project, spray-ons aren’t economically viable, But for smaller projects it’s a wonderful timesaver. Apply when outside temperatures are between 50-90°F (10-32°C), and when no precipitation is expected within 24 hours. If surface is in direct sunlight and hot to the touch, dampen with fresh water to cool.

Chemical preservation is the most economical method out of others as it can be done at home by using limited sources as well as provides durability and sure resistance from the fungi and insects. In this roundup of options, we’re focusing on products the average DIYer might use on projects in and around their home and yard. To do that, we’re bending the rules a little.

Wood preserver helps to bring out the wood’s natural beauty as well as protecting it. But its main job is to sink deep into the surface of sawn or sanded wood to form a protective shield and vastly enhance its lifespan.
