About this product
Description
Sadolin Wet Wood Decking Stain is the only exterior decking stain in the Sadolin range formulated to be applied directly to wet or dry wood — so you do not need to wait for the deck to dry after cleaning or in unpredictable Irish weather. The water-based satin formula offers advanced UV protection, resists peeling and flaking, and contains biocides that actively defend against mould and algae growth.
Recommended uses:
- Exterior timber decking — softwood and hardwood
- Garden and patio decking boards
- Other exterior horizontal timber surfaces
Not suitable for surfaces previously coated with varnish or paint.
Coverage: Up to 10m² per litre. A 2.5L tub covers approximately 25m² per coat. Three coats are recommended; apply each coat in the same direction as the wood grain. For a 25m² deck with three coats, plan for ~7.5L of product.
Drying time:
Touch dry: 2 – 4 hours
Recoat time: 4 – 6 hours
Application: Apply by brush, working along the wood grain. Before applying, wash the surface with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Remove any algae with a fungicidal wash. Sand lightly with 240-grit sandpaper along the grain, then remove dust and degrease by wiping with a clean cloth dampened with methylated spirits. Do not apply if rain is forecast or if temperatures are below 8°C or above 25°C. The wet-wood claim covers residual moisture after cleaning — not active rainfall. Ready to use — do not dilute. Clean tools with warm soapy water immediately after use.
Available shades:
- Cape Grey
- Charcoal
- Dusky Oak
- Grey Slate
- Light Oak
- Natural
- Teak
Please note: The colour swatches shown are for guidance only. Actual shades may vary depending on wood type, surface preparation, number of coats applied, and your device screen calibration. We recommend testing on a small, inconspicuous area before full application.
