7. APPLICATION
TWO THICK COATS OF RESTORE OUTDOOR FURNITURE ARE REQUIRED
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICATION
STEP 1:
Before using Restore Outdoor Furniture, mix material thoroughly and repeat mixing occasionally during
application. Restore Outdoor Furniture is a thick coating that may be difficult to mix fully with just a stir stick. We
recommend that you use a power drill with a mixing paddle. When using more than one container, combine all
containers to ensure color consistency.
STEP 2:
Using either a 4” wide 3/8” or ½” nap roller or a synthetic bristle brush saturate and apply generously in a
consistent pattern. Work to a wet edge at all times. Avoid rolling back into coated areas when drying has begun.
STEP 3:
If needed, use a putty knife or other straight edge to remove any excess coating between deck boards.
STEP 4:
Allow first coat to dry 4-6 hours. Extend the drying time if the surface is tacky or soft. Drying times may vary
depending on temperature and humidity.
STEP 5:
Apply second coat using the same method as in STEP 2 and STEP 3.
STEP 6:
Allow second coat to dry 24 hours before light use and 3-5 days before heavy use. If surface is tacky or soft, allow
extended drying time before using. Full cure to a hard finish will take approximately 3-4 weeks.
8. TWO COATS
TWO COATS OF RESTORE OUTDOOR FURNITURE ARE REQUIRED. The first coat will go on to fill in hairline cracks.
The product will soak into the wood and dry. The first coat may be blotchy and spotty. The second coat works as a
finishing coat and will give greater wear as the product ages. Restore is made to be applied with an approximate
coverage of up to 80 square feet with 2 coats per gallon.
9. DRYING TIMES
Dry times may vary due to weather conditions such as humidity, rain, high/low temperatures and seasonal
changes. Apply Restore Outdoor Furniture when no rain is expected for a minimum of 48 hours after application.
The second coat can be applied as early as 4 to 6 hours after the first coat, but if the area is still wet do not apply
until surface is not tacky to the touch. Allow the area to dry for a minimum 24 hours before light use on the surface
and 3-5 days before heavy use.
Dry times are based off the optimal application temperature of 70 degrees. Allow more time to dry at lower
temperatures. Restore Outdoor Furniture should not be applied if temperatures are below 50 degrees and above
90 degrees for 72 hours either day or night after application.
10. CLEAN UP
Restore Outdoor Furniture is a water based product that will clean up with soap and water. For best results clean
up should be done before the product dries.
