About this deal

Although the solvent content of this product can perish the washers and hoses of some spray systems, it can still be a time and cost effective way to treat large areas. We recommend that if using a spray system you try to complete the project in one day. This said however, depending on the type and brand of sprayer, it may take longer than this. Cleaning Equipment Apply by brush onto timber at a rate of 5 m2 per litre. Apply in 2 – 3 coats depending on the porosity of the wood species. Do not apply if rain is forecast in the next 48 hours to allow time for Roxil Wood Preserver to dry and the application of a top coat. It is designed to be a wood primer and needs a weather resistant top-coat. Either water-based or oil-based top coats can be used. For best results use the following products from the Protek range; So, you can potentially use it on your old shed, but you should prepare the wood first. Otherwise you’re wasting your time and money.

Wood that has been oiled in the last year should be allowed to weather for at least one year or until the wood preservative is able to penetrate through to the timber Ensure that wooden surfaces to be treated with Barrettine Wood Preserver are clean, dry and free from surface dirt, debris and other surface contaminates. New Bare Wood used and allow 24 hours or more for timbers to fully dry before further treatment.

Wood preserver is designed to be applied on freshly sawn or sanded wood. You’ll get the best out of it if you sand down whatever wood you use it on, or at least pressure-wash and scrub it. Always do a test area before starting any project and follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times. Only apply in temperatures of between 10°C and 30°C. Shake or stir well prior to and during application to ensure a consistent colour. One of our top wood preservers, Sikagard Wood Preserver, can be applied on damp or rotten wood and will get to work immediately. If your shed has seen better days, Sikagard is therefore your best choice. You’ll still need to remove as much surface grime as possible, though.

The best wood preserver you can buy in 2023 1. Barrettine Premier Wood Preserver (clear): Best wood preserver for all outdoor jobs Areas that have been affected by mould, algae or fungi should be treated with Barrettine Mould and Mildew Cleaner Most wood preserver is a clear liquid that darkens the wood’s natural colour, but you can also get wood preserver that contains coloured dye, so it stains at the same time as protecting. Whether you go for clear or coloured is a matter of taste.

The best wood preserver you can buy in 2023

This wood preserver provides a semi-transparent matt/satin finish allowing the natural wood texture to be visible, it can be used on pressure-treated wood, treated timber or untreated wood. This high-quality wood treatment is suitable for rough, sawn or smooth timber, does not require over sealing for wood protection. If protecting the natural colour of the wood is important, use the clear preservative then overcoat with Osmo UV Protection Oil Extra or Fiddes Exterior High Build Wood Oil. Whatever colour or non-colour you go for, at least you won’t have to put up with the fluorescent yellowy green colour of creosote, which used to be the only wood preserver you could get. Thankfully creosote – noxious, toxic and highly flammable – is no longer sold to the general public. Are wood preservers all solvent-based? I’m worried about fumes indoors. It contains active ingredients effective against moulds, wood destroying and wood discolouring fungi as well as against wood boring insects. Solvent-based wood preservers such as Barrettine Premier and Ronseal Total tend to absorb more deeply into wood, and decorators say they have longer-lasting effects. However they’re more smelly than water-based stuff, and tend to be less safe for the environment. That said, the most eco-friendly preserver in our line-up, Osmo Wood Protector, is solvent-based but uses safe organic ingredients, which makes it perfect for kitchen worktops. Can I use wood preserver to liven up my old shed?

If required, new bare timber can be cleaned and de-greased with white spirit prior to application of wood preserver Like paint, wood preservers come in solvent-based and water-based varieties. Each type has advantages and disadvantages.

How to use Total Wood Preserver

Water-based wood preservers such as Cuprinol tend to be easier for most people to work with. They dry faster than most solvent-based preservers, and are much lower in VOCs (volatile organic compounds), the substances mainly responsible for petrol-type smells. Water-based products are also much easier to clean off brushes. No subsequent topcoat is required unless for aesthetic purposes. Barrettine Wood Preserver is for outdoor use and also for use on windows/frames, external doors/frames (internal & external sections). The Barrettine Wood Preserver Clear can also be used on structural timbers in unoccupied areas such as floor joists. Our main complaint is that there’s no clear version, so you have to choose a colour – and the waterproof finish is difficult to paint over if you don’t like the shade. The six colours are lovely, though, and include Forest Oak, Autumn Gold and Silver Copse. Barrettine’s preserver does contain some wax for water resistance, but despite this it acts as a good base for paint and varnish. But it does a sterling job of repelling water, sun-fading, rot, insects and other wood-worriers all by itself, as well as bringing out the natural grain of the wood. You can also get a 5l version.

Freshly cut sawn ends should be thoroughly treated with either Barrettine Premier Wood Preserver, or alternatively Barrettine End Grain Preserver Wood preserver is basically an undercoat. You brush or spray it onto raw, freshly sawn or sanded wood surfaces to stabilise the wood’s moisture content and protect it from rot and decay. It is moisture regulating and provides an adhesive surface for subsequent treatment with finishing paints or stains (top coat). Varnish, by contrast, is a topcoat. It won’t protect the wood on its own. Same goes for paint, wax and wood oil. So, if you want your woodwork to last, start with a few coats of wood preserver, wait until they’re fully dry, then go ahead with the varnish or other decorative topcoat of your choice. Can I use wood preserver on its own, without a topcoat? Clear, Odourless formula – Increases the lifetime of timber by preventing wood destroying, wood discolouring fungi and woodworm.
