How to Use Step-by-Step

Step 1: Preparation

Using a stiff-bristled brush, scrub the surface firmly along the grain of the wood to lift away discolouration and dead fibres.

Rinse thoroughly with clean water from a hose or bucket to remove all residues.

Allow the furniture to dry completely before applying any additional finishes, such as Ronseal Teak Oil or wood stain.
