Features
Cabot Semi-SolidŽ Stains are richly pigmented, deep penetrating linseed oil-based stains that provide long lasting beauty and wood protection.
These unique stains provide greater hiding power than semi-transparent stains, yet their attractive flat finish highlights the natural beauty
of the wood's texture. With the extra pigmentation, Cabot Semi-Solid Stains are extremely durable and help protect wood against the sun's
damaging ultraviolet rays. Formulated with non-fade, earth tone pigments to weather slowly over time.
Coverage
On smooth surfaces, approximately 400-600 square feet per gallon; on rough surfaces, 150-250 square feet per gallon.
hese rates will vary depending upon the porosity of the surface.
Where to Use
Cabot Semi-Solid Stains are ideal for use on wood where hiding coverage is desired, yet penetrating wood protection is needed. They also
provide an outstanding value as a one-coat finish for recoating previously semi-transparent stained surfaces. Cabot Semi-Solid Stains can
be used on most types of smooth and rough exterior wood, including siding, shingles, log homes and roofs. They provide excellent results
on reconditioned weathered wood and well-seasoned lumber such as cedar, fir, pine, cypress, spruce, redwood and plywood panel siding.
Preparing Your Surfaces
Proper surface preparation is the key to maximum stain performance. The durability of this product can be impaired by an unsound or poorly
prepared surface. It is very important that the surface be clean of all dirt, mildew stains, loose wood fibers and other foreign matter. In
order to be effective, a stain must be able to penetrate. Surfaces must be structurally sound and absolutely dry. (Moisture content must be
below 15%, or wood must be exposed to dry weather a minimum of 3 to 5 days.) Previously semi-transparent stained or weathered wood surfaces
must be either sanded, scrubbed with a detergent solution or Cabot Problem-SolverŽ Wood Cleaner and a stiff bristle brush, or power washed
to remove the surface layer of all loose wood fibers, dirt, mildew stains, chalky residue and other foreign matter. Use Cabot Problem-Solver
Wood Stripper to safely remove all stains and paints from wood surfaces. Use Cabot Problem-Solver
Wood Brightener to easily remove
nail and metal rust stains, and renew the wood's appearance. New smooth wood that is unseasoned or appears shiny should be allowed to weather
sufficiently before staining, but generally no longer than three months.
Application
Stir thoroughly before and occasionally while using. Apply evenly with a brush, roller or spray on small sections. Best results can be
obtained by using a high-quality natural bristle brush for oil stains. When rolling and spraying immediately backbrush after each section is
coated to ensure proper penetration. To avoid lap marks, start at one edge and follow through to the end of the boards.
Cleanup and Disposal
Clean brushes and equipment with mineral spirits. Dispose of empty cans or unused portion in accordance with local, state and federal
regulations. Close container when not in use. Danger: Rags, steel wool or waste soaked with this product may spontaneously catch fire if
improperly discarded. Immediately after each use, place rags, steel wool or waste in a sealed, water-filled metal container.
