How to Prepare and Coat a Wood Surface with DECKOVER
®
Coating
Step 1
Using a roller or nylon/polyester brush, apply BEHR PREMIUM
®
Stain & Finish Stripper
NO. 64 to a small section of the coated wood deck surface. Reapply the stripper as
needed to keep the surface wet for at least 15 minutes. Do not allow the product
to dry.
TIP: Most deteriorated finishes will start to lift after 15–30 minutes.
Preparing a Coated Deck Surface
Faulty, existing coating can prevent full adhesion of your new DECKOVER coating. The BEHR
®
PREMIUM PREP
PRODUCTS will help strip the old finish, allow the new coating to fully adhere to the wood surface, and ensure a longer
lasting, more durable finish.
Step 2
Using a stiff bristle broom or brush, scrub the section after the finish begins to lift.
Step 3
Thoroughly rinse the surface area with clean water using either a garden hose with
a high-pressure nozzle or a pressure washer.
Step 4
Repeat the process of applying product and scrubbing in small sections until all
peeling coating has been completely removed.
Step 5
Apply BEHR PREMIUM
®
All-In-One Wood Cleaner NO. 63 to clean and neutralize the
surface prior to coating. Allow the area to dry completely.
