USER INSTRUCTIONS:

You can easily refresh your wooden outdoor furniture and make it more durable by re-staining it on a regular basis, for example once a year. You may need to re-stain the furniture more frequently, depending on the climate you live in and the furniture’s exposure to sun and rain. Re-staining prevents the surface from drying out and cracking and moisture from penetrating into the wood. For furniture that stands in the open air, a good indication that you need to re- stain is if raindrops are absorbed directly into the wood and no longer form small beads on the surface. How to re-stain: Choose a place in the shade for cleaning, re-staining and leaving the furniture to dry. Avoid direct sunlight.

How to re-stain:
Choose a place in the shade for cleaning, re-staining and leaving the furniture to dry. Avoid direct sunlight. 1.Wipe clean with a soft cloth dampened in water and a mild soapy solution, if necessary. Wipe dry with a clean and dry cloth. Use a soft brush to remove tougher stains. If necessary, sand the surface with fine grade sandpaper. Be sure to sand it in the direction of the grain. Do not use steel wool or a brush with metal bristles pieces of metal may become embedded in the wood and rust. If wood
fibres rise after cleaning, sand the surface with fine grade sandpaper. 2. Shake the container well and apply a thin, even coat of stain to the furniture using a brush or sponge. Apply on the entire surface at once and in the direction of the grain. 3. Water-based stain dries quickly so be sure to wipe off any excess with a dry cloth directly after application. Wash brushes and your hands with soap and water. EU limit value for this product (cat. A/e): 130 g VOC/l (2010). This product contains max. < 130 g VOC/l
