Restrictions

Not suitable for wood types containing an anti-oxidant (red cedar etc) or woods rich in resins (iroko etc).

Always read the Linitop Solid Product Information before using and follow the instructions carefully.

Recommendations before application

  • Shake well before application
  • Do not apply at an ambient air and wood temperature of less than 10°C and greater than 30°C. The relative humidity will be of the order of 50% for optimum drying
  • Complies with the applicable standards and DTU
  • Protect everything that does not have to be treated
  • The moisture of the wood must not be greater than 15%
  • To protect the wood against UV, the colourless cannot be used outside alone as a topcoat.

Surface Preparation

Linitop Solid must be used on wood whose usage, nature, quality, treatments and preparation comply with the applicable standards and DTU (DUT 59.1).

The inspection and preparation of the surfaces are the responsibility of the user.

New wood surfaces

Sand (grit 120) to encourage and optimise the opening of the pores of the wood.

Weathered wood surfaces (untreated)

Make sure the surface is bare by sanding or stripping the entire surface. After sanding/brush sanding, always carefully dust the surface.

Previously coated surfaces

All previous coatings must be completely and thoroughly removed.

  • Oils and sealers: Strip with Aquanett or Prepdeck then neutralise with Net-Trol
  • Solvent (oil or alkyd based finishes): Strip with Dilunett then neutralise with Net-Trol
  • Acrylic finishes (Water-based): Strip with Prepdeck then neutralise with Net-Trol
  • Other finishes i.e. 2 pack epoxies, urethanes etc Strip with DSP 800 then clean the surface to remove residual paraffin

Note: Hardwoods and woods rich in tannins e.g. Oak, Chestnut, Douglas Fir, Cedar, etc. may darken with Aquanett, Prepdeck and Dilunett, neutralising with Net-Trol immediately after rinsing will lighten and restore the woods colour.

Application Guidance

Application tools

  • Paintbrush, roller or sprayer.

NB – If you apply the product with a sprayer, it is a good idea to go over it lightly with a brush or roller afterwards for better penetration.

Application

New wood after being sanded

  • Apply 1 coat of Prim and Finish
  • Allow to dry
  • Complete with 2 coats of Solid

Grey weathered wood

Darkened oiled wood

Wood to be stripped

Maintenance

Maintenance applications may be required approximately once every 2 years depending on the wood species, its age at the time of the initial application e.g. new or weathered and the colour used.

Inspect the finish bi-annually. Maintenance is due when the finish has severely faded or the wood takes on a weathered grey appearance. Surfaces with harsh exposure to the sun, weather and foot traffic will show wear more quickly than other areas.

Clean the surface with Net-Trol and allow it to dry. Re-apply Solid as directed under ‘Application’. Cleaning with Net-Trol once a year between treatments to remove dirt and other surface contamination will renew the appearance of the finish and wood.

If maintenance has not been maintained and if the surface is now damaged, make the wood bare again by sanding or stripping, applying Net-Trol to neutralise, applying a coat of Prim and Finish and then applying two coats of Solid.

Clean Up

Clean all tools and equipment with white spirits whilst still wet. If allowed to dry, remove with paint stripper.

Tips from the Professionals

  • Always apply Linitop Solid in the direction of the wood’s fibres
  • On new wood or wood made bare, that is not durable and has not been treated with a preservative, it is recommended first treating it with an insecticide, fungicide and anti-blue stain agent
  • During application pay particular attention to the grooves and butts
  • When working with a spray gun, smooth with a brush to avoid running and to foster the penetration of the product
