Description
Teknos Teknoseal 4000 end grain sealer is a unique product specially designed to seal the cut end of timber prior to and during the painting process, as it reduces the uptake of water and moisture through the sawn ends of timber. Teknos advise when painting with an opaque system to end grain seal prior to first coat of primer and then again after the first coat.
If you are using Teknos Teknoseal 4000 with translucent finishes base stain and top coat it is recommended that you apply the Teknoseal after the base stain 2900 has been applied. This allows for full penetration of the base stain to give uniformity of colour.
Any questions please ring and we will be very happy to advise.
