Application Tips

Preparation: Before applying the wood hardener, it’s important to remove any loose or very soft wood. This ensures that the product can penetrate effectively and provide maximum reinforcement.
Application: Shake the container well before use. Apply the hardener liberally with a brush, ensuring that the wood is saturated. Allow each coat to be absorbed before applying the next. Continue this process until a surface film forms.
