Decking Stain
Protek Decking Stain has been specially formulated to give all types of external timber decking an enriching colour that is hardwearing and lasts. It incorporates a new generation resin created from core shell technology with acrylic modification on the alkyd. It is linseed oil based meaning that not only does it have good eco-credentials, but its low particle size offers great wood penetration.
Protek’s Decking Stain not only helps to enrich the decking and uphold the structural integrety of the timber, but reduces the moisture content making it less prone to frost damage.
This waterproofing stain can also be used to colour and protect hardwood and softwood garden furniture and even your summerhouse and garden shed. It complies with EN71-3 relating to child toy safety. It is recommended that 2 coats are applied. Apply the second coat between 2 and 4 hours after the first or as soon as the first coat is touch dry.

Tips
Do not apply any type of wood stain to freshly treated or newly laid decking as it may have trouble bonding to the timber. You should let new decking weather for at least 3 months before applying any colour or stain, allowing the preservative in the pressure treatment to fix and not react with any top coat
