Description
AQUATROL® is a biobased, water-based saturating finish, perfect for weathered wood on decking and cladding made from softwoods such as cedar, Douglas fir, larch, and pressure-treated wood.
Its gel consistency allows for easy, non-drip application, providing long-lasting protection while preserving the natural look of the wood. Thanks to its biobased formulation, partly derived from renewable raw materials.
AQUATROL® combines performance with a reduced environmental footprint. It offers a clear, matt, oily finish that is resistant to UV exposure, ensuring that the wood does not darken over time.
Properties
Biobased formula: reduces reliance on fossil resources.
High-holding, transparent, matt ‘oiled look’ protection.
Preserves the natural appearance of the wood over time. Does not blacken.
Gelled: easy to apply, won't run.
Non-film-forming, won't flake.
Easy, fast maintenance without gumming, sanding or stripping.

Recommendations before application
Always apply AQUATROL® to dry wood (humidity less than 19%).
Check that the wood is untreated (free of old coatings), clean and free of grease stains.
Do not apply AQUATROL® to new wood.
Mix the product well before application.
Do not use on hardwood or plywood.

Application
Generously apply 2 to 3 coats of AQUATROL® ‘fresh on fresh’ using a brush, roller or spray gun (smoothing recommended in the latter case) until the wood is saturated. When the milky appearance of the first coat begins to disappear (approximately 15 to 30 minutes), apply the second coat without delay. Never leave to dry between coats.
At the end of the application, simply wipe and brush off any product that has not been absorbed. Pay particular attention to the ends of wood, which tend to absorb water and humidity; saturate them well to waterproof them and avoid the risk of water infiltration.
Refer to the instructions on the packaging.
