Sadolin New Superdec Opaque Wood Protection

NEW Sadolin Superdec Satin/Gloss- is a multi-surface opaque coating that provides superior protection through extreme flexibility, which enables resistance to cracking, peeling and flaking. Perfect for use on new and previously coated wood. However, can also be used on weathered plastic, metal, cladding, concrete and masonry.

Sadolin Superdec- also contains a biocide to protect the dried paint film against fungal degradation, again providing longevity of the coating. On timber there is no need for a separate primer as this product is self-priming and undercoating and is also vapour permeable and ideal for hiding timber blemishes.

New Timber- treatment of resinous knots is recommended prior to application by drilling out and filling or the application of an appropriate blocking primer. Coat any non-treated wood with two liberal coats of Sadolin Quick Dry Wood Preserver paying particular attention to end grains. Allow 24 hours before overcoating. Where possible, the basecoat, Sadolin Superdec, should be applied, all round, prior to fixing

Previously Coated Timber- remove all defective coatings. Grey denatured timber should be thoroughly sanded back to clean, bright timber and treated as new. Organic growths should be treated with a suitable fungicidal wash and removed. Remaining sound surfaces should be cleaned with a warm water and mild detergent, rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to dry. Bare timber should be patched primed with Sadolin Superdec. Lightly abrade in the direction of the grain, taking care not to break the surface coating. Remove dust. 

New Metals- wash with hot water and liquid detergent solution to remove oil, grease or any other contaminants, frequently changing the water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Lightly abrade to a bright (not polished) surface. Prime within the working day with one coat of Sandtex Trade Rust Inhibiting Primer Undercoat.

Non-ferrous metals- note – not recommended for use on Copper.

Galvanised metal- bright galvanised surfaces should be pre-treated with a T Wash. Overall blackening of the surface will confirm satisfactory surface degreasing. When dry prime with one coat of Sandtex Trade Rust Inhibiting Primer Undercoat.

Ferrous Metals- remove all mill scale and rust back to clean bright metal. Remove all residues. Prime within the working day with one coat of Sandtex Trade Rust Inhibiting Primer Undercoat

Sadolin- recommends using Crown Trade PX4 Primer as a base coat on timber where there is a risk of discolouration, especially when using White or pale colours on resinous knotty softwoods and coloured hardwoods.
