Code: 6F & 6GC

Wood finish formulated with synthetic resins in and natural wax providing high waterproofing characteristics and maintaining the same features as the LIGNUM IMPREGNANTE version, such as excellent fungicide power, antiwoodworm and anti-mildew protection, weather resistance etc., LIGNUM CERATO performs a long lasting outdoor resistance thanks to its waterproofing characteristics provided by the natural wax used for its formulation. LIGNUM CERATO provides a satin finish, thicker and aesthetically better than other conventional finishes but without building up a film that could be subject to flaking. LIGNUM CERATO in the colourless version when used as a finish has a slightly lower resistance than the colored versions, we therefore recommend the use of the colourless version as a cutting product for the coloured versions or as a finish topcoat on wood previously pre-treated with LIGNUM IMPREGNANTE coloured version.

SURFACE PREPARATION AND RECOMMENDED COATING SYSTEM

New wood. The wood surface should be preferably dry, seasoned and clean. Apply a first coat of LIGNUM IMPREGNANTE in order to seal deeply the pores of the wood. After 24 hours slightly sandpaper the surface. Overcoat with 2 coats of LIGNUM CERATO allowing 24 hours betweeen coats.

Old wood.
Clean and wash the surface with a sponge. When the surface is dry sandpaper slightly as much as required by the condition of wood. Apply 1-2 coats of LIGNUM CERATO.

Note: In case of wood surfaces previously painted with transparent varnish, it is recommended  to sandpaper very well the surface before the application of LIGNUM CERATO.
