How to saturate the boards so as not to rot. What is the best way to handle wood? Protection of wooden elements from moisture

Wooden beams are very convenient for building. Many buildings can be erected from it: from a capital residential building to a temporary greenhouse. Wood is a strong, reliable and durable material, but, unfortunately, it is defenseless against the destructive influence of the environment, it is prone to decay, cracks appear when it dries, or it can be destroyed by wood insects. It is not difficult to avoid such a nuisance if you know how to handle the timber.

What can be used to protect

In order to protect wooden surfaces from damage and destruction, various means can be used.

Various impregnations

Impregnation for timber is the most optimal means to preserve its structure for a long time and protect it from destruction. It is applied to the base before the start of decorative and design work, penetrating deeply into the wood structure, protecting it from decay or drying out. But some impregnating solutions can change the natural color of wood - this must also be taken into account when choosing a mixture. For example, if you plan to varnish a log house from a planed bar, retaining or slightly shading the natural shade of the material, then you need to choose transparent compositions that do not change their color after application.

Primer mixes

The use of various impregnating primers is very convenient. A primer with additional additives will not only protect the material, but also prepare the base for decorative coating. When choosing a suitable primer, in addition to its priming qualities, the same features must be taken into account as when choosing an impregnating solution.

Varnishes and enamels

Impregnating varnishes and enamels have a high degree of protection, but, unfortunately, most of them are toxic. They are perfect for processing buildings outside, protecting the structure from humidity and temperature extremes.

Homemade recipes

"Folk" methods suggest using improvised means, for example, waste engine oils or ash, to protect a log house from a planed bar. But after such processing, the material almost always loses its natural color, and the protection of the walls, as a rule, is almost never complete.

Processing solutions can be:

  1. Water based when water is the solvent.
  2. Based on refined products (usually varnishes, enamels or with an antiseptic or fire retardant added to them).
  3. On a synthetic basis, where any chemical compound can be a solvent, they are often toxic.

In order for the protective qualities of the impregnating mixtures to correspond to the operating conditions of the building, choosing the appropriate composition, the following parameters must be taken into account:


In addition, it should be borne in mind that the processing of the timber in the gazebo will be very different from the impregnation of the walls outside or inside a residential block of planed timber:


Experienced craftsmen for long-term wood protection recommend:

  1. When treating walls from the outside, start to apply impregnation from the ends. First, the ends are well impregnated, and then the rest of the wooden elements. 2-3 more layers are applied to the ends, because they are the most defenseless against the aggression of the external environment, and rotting of the material begins from the ends.
  2. Decorating work can be started only after the base is dry after soaking.
  3. To preserve the natural beauty of wood, it is necessary to carefully study the instructions before purchasing the drug, where it is indicated whether it changes the natural color of the wood after being applied to the base or not.

When choosing how to process the timber, you need to take into account all the nuances so that it does not rot and collapse under the influence of unfavorable factors. A house, a greenhouse or a gazebo impregnated with a well-chosen composition will last a long time without requiring major repairs.

Wood is one of the most common building materials in the world. It is widely used for both building construction and interior decoration, due to its strength, durability and excellent aesthetic characteristics. Since it is a natural material, it is susceptible to biodegradation by moisture and microorganisms, therefore it is important to prevent putrefaction. How and what is the processing of wood from decay?

Causes of decay

The main enemy of wood is fungus, which causes it to rot. "Contamination" can occur as a result of improper storage and transportation. The active reproduction of microorganisms provokes a whole set of related factors:

  1. Increased air humidity - up to 90%.
  2. Oxygen stagnation.
  3. Exposure to moisture.
  4. Temperature drops and freezing.
  5. Long-term contact with the soil.
Fungus on wood

Prevention of wood decay

There are many preventive measures to prevent mold even before construction begins. Since the moisture content of the tree after the felling varies from season to season, it must be dried in natural conditions for at least 1 year.

There are a number of methods for preventing biodegradation processes and the negative effects of moisture:

  1. Waterproofing.
  2. Staining with special compounds.
  3. Roof waterproofing.
  4. Heat and vapor barrier.

The foundation for a structure made of wood should always be located above ground level, it is also necessary to equip a drainage system and blind area. A garden near a house with tall trees is a bad idea as they will hinder natural drying.

Also, for the prevention of putrefactive processes, it is necessary to inspect the house every year. If signs of fungus are detected, the material should be taken for a sample to determine its moisture content and density.

Preventive measures are important, since many physical indicators decrease in wood affected by a fungus: it becomes up to 30 times less solid, 3 times less dense. All this leads to distortion of window openings, movement of walls, up to the loosening of the structure.

If biodegradation has begun, it can be contained with the help of special means - both store and folk.

Antiseptics

If mold has already appeared, then antiseptic agents can help prevent its growth. They inhibit the growth of rotting microorganisms on wooden surfaces.


Today, the store usually has something to choose from antiseptics.

When choosing a specific product, attention should be paid to indicators such as possible harm to humans and animals, anti-corrosion properties and impact on the quality of the tree.

All antiseptics are conventionally divided into 3 groups:

  1. Water-soluble products.
  2. Oily.
  3. Pasty.

Water-soluble antiseptics

The most common impregnation is sodium fluoride. Its popularity is explained by a set of significant advantages:

  • high efficiency;
  • good penetrating power;
  • lack of unpleasant odor.

Sodium fluoride does not impair the aesthetic properties of wood and does not cause corrosion of metal parts that come into contact with it. In order to protect the tree from decay, BBK-3 and GR-48 are also often used.

BBK-3 is a solution of borax and boric acid. It is relatively safe for humans and animals, and also has excellent penetrating power.

GR-48 is a pentachlorophenol-based drug. It protects boards not only from the negative effects of moisture and biodegradation, but also from blue stains.

Often, agents are used that contain several active substances at once - for example, HChC based on chromic peak and zinc chloride. However, this impregnation has 2 significant disadvantages: toxicity and the possibility of staining the wood.

Oily and pasty antiseptics

Oily antiseptics are considered the most powerful of their kind. They are used to protect wooden walls from the negative effects of moisture and soil. However, oily impregnation also has two serious drawbacks: a pungent unpleasant odor and the ability to stain wood dark brown.

Pasty antiseptics consist of three main components:

  1. Water-soluble antiseptic.
  2. Filler.
  3. Clay or bitumen as a connecting link.

Organically soluble antiseptics are agents like PL containing pentachlorophenol and petroleum products. However, due to their high toxicity, they are rarely used.

The use of organically soluble antiseptics is justified for treating wood when exposed to moisture in order to avoid drying. Using these tools, you need to take care of personal protection: gloves and a respirator.

How to apply impregnation to wood

In order to treat a tree with an antiseptic composition, different methods are used. The most effective way is to immerse the material in baths with the active substance. The only drawback of the method is its high cost.

The second method is impregnation using autoclaves. This method is based on the action of high pressure, which promotes deep absorption of the composition into the material.

Often, special pastes are applied to the boards - they have good penetrating ability and effectively protect the material from fungus. Often, antiseptics are applied using rollers, brushes, or simply sprayed from a spray bottle.


Applying an antiseptic with a brush, as well as a spray bottle

It is always necessary to apply the composition on a dry surface that has not been covered with varnish or enamel, since in these cases the product cannot be absorbed.

The first step is to process areas where decay has already begun. These are usually building ends and cuts. It is best to carry out the procedure at a temperature from +20 to +25. If the temperature drops below +5, antiseptic treatment will not give a result.

Folk remedies for impregnation

If the putrefactive process did not have time to grow strongly, folk remedies will help prevent further destruction of the tree:

  1. Silicate glue.
  2. Soda and vinegar.
  3. Potassium dichromate solution.
  4. Copper sulfate.
  5. Resin.
  6. Salt and boric acid.

The easiest way is to use silicate glue. It is required to dilute it with water, and apply the resulting solution to areas where biodegradation is observed. You can also treat the rotting spots with soda, and sprinkle with vinegar from a spray bottle on top.

Potassium dichromate is used by mixing in equal proportions with sulfuric acid. The resulting composition should be processed not only on the boards on the street, but also up to 50 cm of the soil layer.

Another effective improvised means for preventing wood rotting is copper sulfate. To prepare the composition, take 100 g of the substance per 10 liters of water.

For external treatment, you can use resin, as well as a mixture of 1 kg of salt and 50 g of boric acid, which are stirred in 5 liters of boiling water. Such a composition must be applied to the wood several times, waiting for a couple of hours so that the product has time to be absorbed.

Finnish processing

The Finnish method is a special way of processing wood to protect it from moisture and decay. You will need a set of ingredients:

  • salt;
  • flour;
  • water;
  • slaked lime;
  • inkstone.

Such a composition stays on the material for a very long time, without being washed off with water. Despite the safety of the method, it is recommended to use it only for the protective treatment of wood intended for fences and roofs.

The listed ingredients must be mixed to a consistency reminiscent of sour cream, and the bulk of the mixture must be based on flour and water. After thorough mixing, the composition should be slightly warmed up over low heat, and when it becomes warm, you need to quickly apply it to the boards.

After the first layer has dried, it is necessary to process the material again. If the composition has cooled down by this time, you will need to heat it up again.

The porch has always had the ability to give comfort to everyone who enters the house. And how pleasing to the eye and creates a pleasant, benevolent and inviting atmosphere, a wooden porch is difficult to convey in words. In addition, such structures are durable, unpretentious and financially beneficial. But, like any thing, a wooden porch also needs care, which consists in painting and periodic surface treatment.

What to use to handle a wooden porch

When deciding to treat a wooden porch, initially it is worth choosing the necessary antiseptic primer or antiseptic impregnation. Both of these products have an identical effect, but the primer additionally prepares the surface for further processing with varnish or other material.

Protection of the porch from moisture

For wood, as for any material, there are permissible norms, the neglect of which will lead to the rapid destruction of the structure. So, exceeding 15% of the wood moisture threshold will lead to the destruction of fibers, subsequent swelling and stratification of the integral structure of the wooden porch. Almost all types of wood are susceptible to moisture and special solutions have been created to protect them. These are penetrating and water-repellent so-called film-forming substances, where the former give a more reliable result and retain their properties for a long time, and the latter are cheaper, but serve several times less.

For example, consider two tools that are better than others withstanding the penetration of moisture into wood.

Aidol Langzeit-Lasur, a medium viscosity impregnating agent, shown in the following photo, is perfect for treating walls, furniture, decorative structures, railings and wooden fences. The product is absolutely safe for people. Suitable for use with any wood, because it has a huge selection of shades from ebony to dark oak.

Colorless, based on acrylic resin, water and a number of additives Belinka Interier Sauna glaze. The product is perfect for treating a wooden porch in hot regions with high humidity. It withstands temperature loads and the influence of aggressive environments very well. The product is applied with a spray gun or roller in several layers. We will consider the process of applying this glaze in more detail in the next photo.

Protection against fungi and decay

The constant change of temperatures, seasons and many other natural factors lead to early decay of wood structures. In our changeable and challenging climate, a wooden porch suffers from all the hardships of the environment, and this can lead to deterioration of the structure.

The best solution for treating a wooden porch is to use a special antiseptic. Basically, antiseptics are available in the form of solutions and in most cases are universal. Their applications range from antifungal to insecticidal. The most popular solutions are Pinotex Imra and Senezh EcoBio.

The first is used for hidden timber structures and parts such as crossbeams and roof slings. It is extremely reliable and has a long-lasting antifungal effect. After applying the first coat, re-painting is not required.

The second is necessary for the impregnation of the outer part of the wooden porch, partially fulfills the role of a primer for subsequent painting. It is applied in several layers, as indicated in the next photo, and protects against decay and mold for up to 30 years.

Fire protection impregnations

Fire is the most terrible and terrible pest for the tree. To protect and prevent fire and even smoldering, special solutions are used - fire retardants. In the event of a fire, fire retardants in wood turn into a dense protective film that can withstand fire for a relatively long time. Fire retardants are available in the form of solutions, paints, plasters and gels.

The main representative of NEOMID 530 products. This solution allows you to cover a wooden base both for indoor and outdoor use. After processing, the wood structure reliably resists fire and is not disturbed, which makes it possible to further process the porch with varnishes and paints.

Another representative is Pirilax-biopyren - a complex product presented in the next photo, which provides protection not only from fire and its harmful effects on the wooden surface of the porch, but also treatment from fungus and harmful insects. The product is absolutely safe for people and animals. It is a versatile product, so it can be used to cover wood both indoors and outdoors.

Protection of wood from insects

Aqualak Bor is a deep penetration impregnation that resists the ingress of insects into the wood and its destruction. The solution does not violate the integrity of the wood and its color texture. Basically, the varnish is diluted with water, and it is mainly intended to cover doorways, railings, stairs and walls.

The second representative suitable for treating a wooden porch, shown in the next photo, is a multifunctional decorator with an antiseptic effect - Tonetex. The solution is able to get rid of all kinds of insects and, at the same time, prevent fungi and mold from developing. It has a large selection of shades, which gives a huge field for choosing the color of wood products from bog oak to red wood varieties.

Porch processing procedure

It is worth knowing that the processing of wooden products is carried out in 2 stages. First, the wood is impregnated with special antiseptics to combat mold and mildew, and an insecticidal and refractory solution is applied. Secondly, varnish or paint is applied, which give the wood a special decorative layer that gives the porch beauty and naturalness.

Impregnation of a wooden porch

During the receipt of wooden structural parts and immediately before assembly, they are industrially impregnated with special solutions, but there are cases when impregnation is not carried out and you have to do it yourself. Self-impregnation is applied by spraying the solution onto a well-prepared wooden porch surface. The solution, as can be seen from the next photo, is applied in several steps with an interval of 15 - 20 minutes each.

The impregnation spray preparation technology is standard and includes a number of simple but important requirements. The first step is to treat the surface with abrasive materials to eliminate the appearance of cracks and gaps. After that, the surface should be cleaned of dirt and dust using detergent and warm water. Finally, after complete drying of the surface, you need to apply impregnation, in accordance with the instructions for use.

Important ! All types of impregnations are reactive solutions. When using them, you should remember about personal safety measures and clearly follow the instructions for working with them.

Pay special attention to the respiratory organs, because they can be affected in the first place.

Paint coating

At the moment, there is an unthinkable number of various impregnations and solutions for wood and wooden parts, but practically none of them is able to completely protect the surface from all sorts of factors and for the absolute effect and consolidation of the result, surface treatment with paints and varnishes is necessary.

When choosing a brand and type of paint, one should not forget that the following features of the finished porch on the street depend on their choice:

  • future type of product;
  • durability of the top layer and, accordingly, the entire structure as a whole;
  • product safety and environmental risk factor;
  • the time to put the product into operation due to the drying time of the surface.

The type and brand of varnish or paint is, of course, important, but no less important is the question of the correct application of the last coat. We learn how to paint a wooden porch correctly from the following photo instructions.

First, you should make sure that there are no defects and imperfections on the surface of the wooden product. If chips or cracks are detected, it is better to treat them with wood putty until they disappear completely, an example of a perfectly sanded surface is shown in the next photo. The areas treated with the filler should be sanded after drying.

Next, you need to prepare the paintwork. It should be shaken to avoid settling of heavier fractions to the bottom. Also, when applying paint, it is necessary to determine and add a color or pigment dye to obtain the desired color or shade. It will be ideal to test the resulting color on a small area of ​​wood, because after drying it can change its shade and is no longer suitable for processing. If varnish is preferred, then a brush or molar swab is suitable for its application, and when choosing a paint, preference should be given to a roller or a more modern application option - a spray gun.

Important! When painting by hand, it is necessary to cover the paint with a thin layer, as shown in the following photo. This will give you the opportunity to see gaps, gaps and streaks during application.

Conclusion

To give preference to wood for the construction of any building is an excellent choice, but also not a small responsibility. The processing of the selected material directly depends on your approach to this issue and will fully show itself during the operation of the structure. For high-quality and full-fledged protection, you will need complex processing of the structure with all the means and impregnations specified in the article. This will not only save you from a lot of problems in the future, but will also extend the durability of the wooden porch several times.

The tree combines unique properties, it is easy to find it directly in nature, it is one of the most common materials for construction since ancient times, it is beautiful and environmentally friendly.

It has certain features, they must be taken into account during construction, knowing what is the best way to process wood before construction work.

Wood products have an expensive and solid appearance, they have a pleasant smell that fills any room with freshness, but the tree also has many drawbacks, it begins to decompose quickly enough when exposed to external irritants, the wood must be protected from moisture and decay.

Wood ignites quickly, so it is better that no wiring passes through it, if your house is completely made of wood, then you need a high-quality fire system.

Under the influence of moisture, it swells, therefore there should be no dampness in such a room, the vital activity of various microorganisms negatively affects the tree, they are capable of destroying the material, therefore they acquire great importance

And their right choice.

The better to process wood inside the house

Wood can be protected from rotting in various ways. There are remedies that can slow the process down, but if the decay is already widespread, remodeling will be required.

Biological protection will be very useful for wood, since many pests are dangerous for it, be it insects, bacteria or fungi, it can be reduced by reducing the amount of water vapor in the bathroom and in the kitchen, since if the humidity increases, the wood will swell and rot.

The wood must be protected from decay, for this you will need special impregnations based on various chemicals.

Many people are interested in the question of what is the best way to process wood inside the house; in fact, there are a lot of funds. It is only important to remember that the agent chosen for internal work must be non-toxic, safe for breathing and dry quickly.

The better to handle wood outdoors

Silicone-based coatings are considered the best, they are resistant. When choosing, you need to take into account the properties of the object.

  • If it is located in a humid region, a product that protects against temperature extremes is required, it can last up to 12 years.
  • There are impregnations that protect the building from rotting and spontaneous combustion.
  • For street buildings, products that are more difficult to wash off, they are more expensive, but effective for 35 or more years are suitable.

Before processing, thoroughly clean the wood from dirt and dust, as they interfere with the penetration of special compounds, for this use sandpaper and warm water, but detergents can also be used, after which the wood can be left to dry completely.

The product itself must be applied very carefully, while safety measures must be observed, it must not get into the mouth, eyes or on the skin, if this happens, rinse the damaged area.

If you apply the product by spraying, ensure breathing is safe. Now there are a lot of such funds, so you can safely build a wooden house and not be afraid that it will collapse. The main thing is to be constant and timely, this is very important.

If rotting has already begun, it will not work to restore the damaged areas, but you can stop the process itself, you need to cut down the affected area, it is better to capture healthy wood, as it may contain spores of a harmful fungus. Install a metal rod into the resulting hole and putty everything well.

Wooden structures need not only be treated with special compounds, but also painted, this is quite laborious and time-consuming. Before starting work, remove the previous layer, apply water with soda or sodium hydroxide solution to it. After a while, the paint will soften and can be easily removed with a scraper. There are also paint strippers.

  • When painting wood, you need to comply with a number of requirements, if you do not follow them, then soon your paint will begin to recede.
  • The tree should be dry, it is better to paint it in summer, in dry weather, before painting, you can prime the surface, it is advisable to use oil-based paints, as they are able to form a waterproof film.
  • The best option would be to use Swedish and Finnish paints, since they are more durable than Russian paints, cheaper than them, you do not need to remove the old coating under them, but they cannot be applied to old oil paint.
  • They are optimal for fresh and dry wood. When starting work, it is advisable to de-resin the tree, wipe the threatened areas with alcohol, acetone is also suitable.

If you have a wooden floor, then it will work for it, it will ensure the durability of the floor and increase its service life. If you choose a more expensive foreign varnish, you can protect the floor from harmful effects for many years. It is the optimal floor covering of all the many options on the market.

Competent processing of wood from decay and other negative phenomena can make its service life almost infinite, it will be freed from its shortcomings and retain only its dignity.

From ancient times to the present day, wood has been an irreplaceable building material. It has a number of positive characteristics, thanks to which it is highly valued among buyers.

But, despite all the advantages, wood is very vulnerable and prone to decay, so any wooden object must be processed.

The reasons giving rise to putrefaction trees are as follows:

  • air humidity is the main enemy of wood;
  • temperature changes that contribute to the expansion or contraction of the tree;
  • condensation that accumulates in the wood and does not come out of it;
  • freezing;
  • contact with the ground.

Means and preparations for wood processing

Measures to prevent decay, it is advisable to carry out from the moment of harvesting materials for construction.

Rotting wood reduces its density, gradually leading to loosening and destruction of the structure, which is very dangerous for human life and health, therefore, it is imperative to carry out processing.

Prevent decay of wood is possible if the entire surface of a wooden building is carefully examined once a year. Rotting in infected areas will be indicated by an unpleasant odor and a white film.

Signs of wood decay are the characteristic rotting smell and a white, thin film in areas infested with rot and mold spores.

Depending on the source, causing the process of decay of the tree, will depend on the measures to prevent it.

  • For instance, vapor barrier and thermal insulation protects wood species from condensation.
  • Protection from atmospheric humidity will be provided by special paints and varnishes.
  • Drying naturally with sunlight will also get rid of excess moisture.
  • The most common and effective methods are conservation methods and the use of an antiseptic. The principle of operation of these methods lies in the poisonous effect of the drug on the causative agents of putrefaction.

Protective funds usually presented in the form of paints, varnishes and antiseptics. The use of paints will not only protect the tree from decay, but also refresh the appearance. Using varnishes, you can prevent cracks, give the wood a matte or glossy appearance, and also avoid surface fading.

Application of antiseptic agents expedient already at the stage of the appearance of mold. When choosing a product, you must carefully read the instructions, since some drugs are suitable only for internal processing, for example, inside the house, and some are exclusively for external processing.

For example, combined antiseptics are only suitable for external processing as they are toxic.

If we compare the means for wood decay in value, then it should be said that paints and varnishes are more expensive than antiseptics, and in order to prevent rotting, you need to purchase a considerable amount of paint. So the use of an antiseptic is much more profitable both from a practical and an economic point of view.

Manufacturers of wood decay products

The Russian quality remedy for wood decay is “ Sagus”, It protects the surface and gives the wood a beautiful and healthy appearance. The cost of 1 liter is 90 rubles.

Neomid and "League of Bioshield" are often demanded means that protect the surface from decay.

Decay remedy " Neomid 500"Disinfects the surface, preventing infection with almost all types of fungus, and is also able to cope with the" advanced "stage of decay. According to the manufacturer's advice, the received treatment should be "preserved" with means from the same series "Neomid 440" or "Neomid 450". Prices for these drugs reach 700 rubles per 5 kg. "League Bioshield", acting no worse than "Neomid", is an order of magnitude lower, so the price is from 103 rubles for 5 liters.

Antiseptic " Senezh»Protects wood from rotting and mold, depending on the purpose, antiseptics are subdivided for treating wood both outside and inside, as well as for rooms with high humidity.

This antiseptic is also suitable for re-treating surfaces, except for those that were previously treated with oil products.

This product can protect the surface for up to 35 years. On top of it, paint, varnish, glue and other substances can be applied. Senezh costs from 550 rubles. For 5 liters.

Drevosan Profi protects the tree from insects and fungi, as well as from mold. This tool can be applied both to infected surfaces, and as a prophylaxis. This tool is more suitable for external processing. Price for 1 liter from 120 rubles.

How to choose the right product?

At choice protective equipment, it is necessary to take into account the individual characteristics of the object, its location, the purpose of its construction.

For example, if the object is located in the coastal zone or in the room itself, a high level of humidity is constantly maintained, then it is necessary to select a tool that will protect the wood in case of temperature extremes. Such funds last up to 12 years on average.

It should also be borne in mind that often the properties of the drug are designed not only to prevent rotting, but also to protection from wood ignition. The term of such "multifunctional" funds is up to 7 years.

It is better to treat terraces or gazebos with hard-to-wash products, one treatment is usually enough for 35 years.

Special solutions also provided for fences, windows and other objects with rounding. Such solutions are specifically aimed at protecting against cracks and provide uniform shrinkage of the wood over the entire surface.

Handle wood often not necessary, however, the first alarming sign that requires additional processing is the appearance of cracks on the surface. Modern manufacturers offer a number of impregnations that prevent the destruction of wood. For example, "Wood doctor", "Elkon", "Biox" help to get rid of mold and mildew, and are also suitable for indoor and outdoor processing. These brands are made in Russia. Of the highest quality drugs from foreign manufacturers, we can name the Dulux company, which is famous for a large selection of impregnations against fungus, and the products of the Alcator company penetrate deep into the wood and dry quickly, and the treated wood serves for a very long time.

Wood processing technology

Wood processing can be carried out in various ways.

When preparing material for construction, processing is usually carried out by immersion in a solution. This method requires special equipment.

If the material was laid without processing, then you can use the method spraying, which also protects against decay, but has a small penetration depth. For temporary protection, this method is well suited.

Spray protection can be provided when the facility is already built. Before applying the substance, you need to prepare the object well, cleaning it from dust and dirt, and then apply the agent two or three times with an interval of 15 minutes. There are general rules for applying the drug:

  • first you need clear wood from dirt and dust;
  • use sandpaper to get rid of gaps;
  • wash the boards with warm water with any detergent;
  • dry the boards completely;
  • apply the protective agent as many times as indicated in the instructions.

When processing it is important carefully handle the substance for your own safety. The product should not come into contact with skin, eyes, in case of contact, immediately wash off the chemical with water. Respiratory safety must be ensured when using the spray method.

Today there are many means and preparations that prevent wood from rotting, so you can build a house or other wooden objects without fear that they may soon collapse. And most importantly, do not forget to comply with all the necessary security measures.
