BOARD PREPARATION: Use WoodPerfect over flat primers only. Board must be dry and free of all contaminants and foreign particles. Boards must be at least 50ºF and not more than 90ºF prior to coating. Boards must have a consistent look; imperfections will show through coating. Remove any efflorescence with soap and water prior to coating.

PRODUCT PREPARATION: DO NOT THIN PRODUCT. Do not shake product. Stir until completely mixed. To insure color consistency, intermix all gallons being used.

TEST AREA: Different siding products produce different results depending on color of boards, grain pattern, porosity of boards, and if primed boards or unprimed boards are used. Color on unprimed boards will vary significantly from color on primed boards. Always apply product to a small test area before coating entire project to ensure desired color and appearance.

Machine Coat Application: Optimal results are achieved by applying coating horizontally through a factory prestain machine. Primed board requires two coats, each coat being at least 6 mils wet. Unprimed board requires three coats, each coat being at least 6 mils wet. Allow at least 1 hour dry time between coats, unless oven curing. WoodPerfect Coating must be dry to the touch before applying additional coats. Proper cure time will insure a hard, scuff- and mar-resistant coating. Product is designed for both ambient (air) and oven drying.

PRECAUTIONS-FIELD APPLICATION: Do not apply in extreme heat of day or in direct hot sunlight. Do not apply product if rain is likely to occur within 24 hours. On unprimed boards, the first coat will penetrate rapidly. Allow the first coat to dry for two hours before applying second coat. Primed boards require two coats, unprimed boards require three coats.

FIELD APPLICATION-HORIZONTAL: Primed or unprimed boards may be coated horizontally before installation. Boards should be laid out on a level surface and the coating should be allowed to completely dry before installation. Product may be applied using a brush, roller or airless sprayer. Optimal performance is with an airless sprayer using a 615 tip at approximately 1500-psi. Be sure to coat individual boards with enough product to cover the board and fill the valleys. Allow the product to pool in the valleys to enhance the wood grain pattern. Back brushing or back rolling is not recommended. If applying with a brush or roller, use a quality applicator recommended for latex products. When brushing, apply the coating against the grain pattern to further build product in the valleys. To achieve deeper color tones, additional coats of WoodPerfect may be applied.

FIELD APPLICATION-VERTICAL: Primed or unprimed boards may be coated vertically after installation. Product may be applied with an airless sprayer or a brush. Optimal performance is with an airless sprayer. As this product has a viscosity more similar to stain than paint, the first coat should be applied with a finishing tip (411-513 tip).Spray siding until the product covers the board without flooding it.  Any drips or runs should immediately be brushed out. This product has a fast dry time and may lap; therefore it is very important to maintain a wet edge and work to natural break points such as windows, doors, and corners. Begin coating from the bottom and work up. If working on a two-story structure, use scaffolding to maintain a continuous wet edge on higher points. Allow the first coat to dry for two hours before applying the second coat. When  applying the second coat, a higher volume of product may be used (523-615 tip). It is still important to apply an even amount of product without over-applying to the point of creating drips or runs. To achieve deeper color tones, multiple, even coats may be applied. Note: Allow coating to dry 24 hours before using a clear caulking (always read and follow all manufacturer instructions for caulking compounds).

Painted Siding and Trim: Previously-painted and installed siding and trim can be primed and coated with WoodPerfect. Use a premium quality, flat, exterior grade primer and allow it to completely dry before applying WoodPerfect. Follow the above instructions for vertical installation. End Cuts: All end-cuts should be coated before installation. As specified by manufacturer, all seams, joints etc. should be caulked using a premium quality clear caulk (always follow manufacturer instructions for caulking compounds).

RE-APPLICATION & TOUCH-UPS: Where mars, scratches or imperfections result after installation, touch up with a brush. Apply coating to the area and feather it into the surrounding finish. Apply two touch-up coats if the imperfection shows bare boards. For complete re-application, clean the entire surface with Mason's Select Brand Products Concrete Cleaner to remove foreign matter, and allow 24 hours to dry, then apply coating using a brush, roller, or airless sprayer.

DRY TIME: MACHINE APPLICATION: To touch 1 Hour; to recoat 1 hour; rack cure time 8 hours.

FIELD APPLICATION: To touch 1 hour; to recoat 2 hours.

COVERAGE: 175-275 sq. ft. per gallon, depending on porosity of surface.
