Achieving Durable Finishes for Exterior Wooden Decks, Furniture, and Handrails
When it comes to exterior wooden decks, furniture, and handrails, achieving durable finishes is essential to protect them from the elements and enhance their aesthetic appeal. Properly filling imperfections before staining and varnishing is crucial for achieving a smooth and long-lasting result. In this article, we will explore the ideal filler from Nordsjö Professional and provide guidance for achieving exceptional finishes.
Nordsjö Professional Flexible Wood Filler is the perfect choice for filling exterior wooden surfaces. This non-shrink filler can be applied in relatively thick layers of up to 1 cm, ensuring excellent coverage and adhesion. It dries to a tough finish while remaining flexible, allowing for natural wood movement without cracking or peeling. Whether you prefer staining, varnishing, or painting, this versatile filler can be seamlessly incorporated into your desired finishing process.
To ensure optimal application, please refer to the Technical Data Sheets (TDS) provided by Nordsjö Professional. These documents contain detailed instructions and guidelines tailored to the Flexible Wood Filler. By following the recommended application methods, you can achieve professional-level results.
Before starting the filling process, it is crucial to assess the condition of the wood surface. If rot is present, it is advisable to replace the affected boards before painting. However, if replacing the boards is not feasible, you can use a suitable rot repair solution. While Nordsjö Professional currently does not offer a wood rot repair solution in Australia, there are other reputable products available in the market that can address this issue effectively.
When filling exterior wooden decks, furniture, and handrails, it is important to prepare the surface properly. Ensure that the area is clean and free of dust, dirt, and loose particles. Remove any previous coatings or finishes that may hinder the adhesion of the filler.
Once the surface is prepared, apply the Nordsjö Professional Flexible Wood Filler using a suitable filling knife or spatula. Work the filler into the imperfections, ensuring even distribution and complete coverage. Smooth out the surface as needed and allow the filler to dry thoroughly according to the instructions provided in the TDS.
After the filler has dried, you can proceed with staining or varnishing the exterior wooden surfaces. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the chosen stain or varnish product for the best application technique and drying times. Remember to apply multiple coats if necessary to achieve the desired color and level of protection.
By using Nordsjö Professional Flexible Wood Filler and following proper application techniques, you can achieve durable and visually appealing finishes for your exterior wooden decks, furniture, and handrails. Enjoy the beauty of your outdoor spaces with the confidence that they are well-protected and professionally finished.
