Surface Preparation
All new wood surfaces must be cured, clean, sound, dry and free of all dirt, dust, efflorescence, wax, oil, grease, chalk and any other contamination that would interfere with new coating adhesion. Sand smooth. Patch nail holes and any imperfections with wood filler or putty and sand smooth. Remove sanding dust. Performance will be directly related to the degree of surface preparation.
