Timber is a popular feature in garden designs, but to give your customers the end results they desire, it is vital that wooden elements are properly protected to ensure longevity. Here, we look at why Ronseal Trade Total Wood Preserver is a key product to keep in your armoury. Keeping moisture out of timber is the key to its longevity - especially for wooden elements situated in the garden, as they are constantly exposed to the unpredictable British weather. If moisture seeps in, the wood is at risk from the likes of woodworm, rot and decay. To prevent these issues from occurring, it is vital that the timber is protected with a high-quality wood preserver. Ronseal Trade Total Wood Preserver is a solvent-based pre-treatment for use on a wide range of exterior wooden features situated above ground level including sheds, fences, window frames and doors. It has been cleverly formulated to offer tough, long lasting protection against woodworm, rot and decay, as well as blue stain fungus. Before applying Ronseal Trade Total Wood Preserver, always make sure that any damp or rot is eliminated, and decayed wood is replaced. Helpfully, Ronseal Trade Total Wood Preserver is available in five natural colours, meaning it can be easily over painted, varnished or stained. Although Ronseal Trade Total Wood Preserver dries within 24 hours, we recommend always allowing at least 48 hours before over painting to ensure it has dried completely. As Ronseal Trade Total Wood Preserver is solvent-based, you should contact your local authority to find out how to safely dispose of leftover product – as it cannot be emptied into drains or watercourses.
