Product Features

For protection and priming of timber and wooden structures before surface treatment. Suitable for use on logs, sawn and planed timber, thermally treated and impregnated wood in exterior use before surface treatment. Use the product only as wood preservative as described in product data sheet and label. Finishing coats are recommended to be applied as soon as possible, because colorless priming oil does not protect the wood surface from the adverse effects of sunlight.

Can be used on wooden parts left above ground that are either exposed to or protected from weather, but are exposed to repeated wetting. Not for use on wood in direct soil or water contact or in marine environment. Not to be used on interior surfaces.

Painting

First coat:

Treat wood surfaces with Valtti Pohjuste in the earliest possible phase of construction. Spread a generous amount of Valtti Pohjuste with a brush. Treat the end grains of the wood with particular care. Do not use the product in the vicinity of food utensils, cutlery and surfaces where food in handled. Wash the hands and other exposed skin before meals and after use. Unprotected persons and animals should be kept out of treated areas for 48 hours or until surfaces are dry. Do not allow the product to enter soil or surface water during the treatment or the drying of the surface. Protect plants and fish ponds before treatment. Apply the final surface treatment as soon as possible, however after 24 hours at the earliest. If the surface treatment is delayed over winter, we recommend a new priming before surface treatment. Use wood preservatives safely. Always read the label and product information before use.


Prevents the spread of mold

Valtti Pohjuste (Primer) is a colorless protective agent that is absorbed deep into the wood, making the surface water-repellent and retarding the absorption of moisture and, consequently, the spread of mold on the treated surface.
