Usage guide

Hide content

Apply:

Bare Wood: Flood surfaces with 2 or 3 brush coats. Pay particular attention to endgrain, corners, joints, crevices, etc. In severe cases, also inject into flight holes 7-10cm (3-4ins) apart and repeat treatment. Re-treat surfaces cut after treatment. Polished Wood: Inject into flight holes 5-7cm (2-3ins) apart. Flood into joints. Wipe off surplus. In severe cases repeat treatment. Fluid does not penetrate polished surfaces. Wax polished surfaces will normally require re-waxing after treatment. Cuprinol Woodworm Killer (F) is also available in small tins. Treat all replacement timber.

Dry:

Most finishes such as oil or water based paints, woodstains, varnishes, polishes etc. can be applied after the fluid has dried (normally 2-5 days for brush, spray or 3 minute dip). Some finishes such as 2-part lacquers may require a longer drying: a test application is recommended.

Clean:

Clean equipment with white spirit. Remove as much material as possible from brushes before cleaning. For best results use Polycell Brush Cleaner. Do not use or store in extremes of temperature.
