DECKINGOIL
Preparation: The surface must
be clean, dry and free from wax,
algae and mould. Previous
coatings should be removed so
that the Decking Oil can
penetrate and adhere to the
timber. Ensure the timber is dry, as dampness will prevent
penetration and result in poor adhesion. Where the deck is
weather stained, discoloured, or of poor appearance use
Rustins Decking Cleaner to clean and revive the surface.
When decking timber is not pre-treated such as with
hardwood decking, use a wax free preservative on the wood
before the oil. It is advisable to test for compatibility on a
small area before proceeding further.
This will assist in preventing the growth of mould naturally
present in the wood.
Application: Shake well before use. Using a clean brush or
roller apply liberally and evenly. Allow to dry overnight. A
further two coats will be needed to give optimum protection.
Maintenance: From time to time, depending on exposure
and use, decks will need re-oiling to maintain appearance
and level of protection.

How to...
QUICKDRY
FLOORVARNISH
Preparation: The floor must be
clean, free from wax, grease and
dust. Remove all traces of wax polish with wire wool and
white spirit. Use a clean rag to remove the mixture of
white spirit and wax. It is advisable to repeat this process
even if the floor is to be sanded as sanding forces wax
further into the wood. Special care should be taken where
there are large cracks in the flooring as these can become
caked with old wax polish. Large cracks or holes can be
filled with Rustins Wood Filler. New or old floors that have
been sanded can be stained with Rustins Wood Dye
before varnish; other brands of dye may not be
compatible.
Application: STIR WELL BEFORE AND DURING USE.
Do not dilute. Apply very liberally with minimum brushing
using large brush or roller, finishing off in direction of the
grain with light pressure. It will be touch-dry in approximately
20 minutes. A cold damp atmosphere or high humidity will
slow the drying. A second coat can be applied after a
minimum of 2 hours. Three liberal coats are usually sufficient
but four are recommended on cork. When applied over
existing finishes the adhesion will improve over a period of
2448 hours. Floors can be walked on after 2 hours but
should not be subject to heavy wear for 24 hours. Wipe off
spillages immediately during first three days. If first or second
application raises the grain, sand lightly before applying
another coat.
It is essential that raised grain is protected by an adequate
thickness of varnish. If film thickness is not sufficient to cover
raised grain water may be absorbed which will discolour the
wood. Do not use less than recommended coverage. Do not
pour varnish into an unlacquered metal container; use glass
or polythene. Clean brushes immediately after use with
water; clean hard brushes with Rustins Cellulose Thinners or
Rustins Brush Restorer.

The Story of Briwax.

A low VOC water based product


with minimal smell whilst applying.

Henry Flack started manufacturing French polishes and blending waxes in 1860 to
supply the cabinet makers and woodcarvers in East London. After severe bomb
damage during the Second World War, the company relocated to Beckenham in Kent.
In 1961 the company was acquired by the Bollom family and in 2013 became part of
the Rustins group.

Contains ultra violet inhibitors to


protect the product against
sunlight.

46

The Briwax Product range has been carefully selected from the finest traditional trade
finishes, drawing on 150 years of experience supplying furniture manufacturers.
Many of the Briwax polishes and products are basically the same as the original
formulas developed to meet the quality demands of the professional finisher.

Briwax and Briwax Original

Briwax

Wax polish offers the simplest of finishes to unfinished / raw timber or the final
touch to a full French polished surface whether in the home or the workshop.
A blend of Beeswax and Carnauba waxes to give an instant natural sheen to bare
wood or wood prepared with Shellac Sanding Sealer. Ideal for woodcarvings and
turned wood, for floors and skirtings. Briwax cleans and protects wood, metalwork
even melamine.

Liquid Beeswax

BriwaxandBriwaxOriginal
Both waxes are formulated to produce the Briwax finish on finished and
unfinished timber. The Briwax has been blended with slightly milder solvents,
so that it gives off less odour whilst drying, whilst at the same time providing a
smooth application and finish.
The film remains as a paste for slightly longer to aid the even application.
Briwax Original is formulated with fast drying, stronger solvents which speed up
drying, and also increase the cleaning ability of the wax slightly. This means that
it will renovate older dirtier furniture. The choice is yours, either product will leave
you with the deep grain enriching BRIWAX shine.

Specially formulated to nourish and protect


sealed or unsealed wood. Quick drying and
ideal for use on absorbent woods such as
pine and oak. For interior wooden furniture

Briwax Spray Wax

Size: 400ml

A smooth white tinted paste wax,


formulated to produce a white grained finish
in open grained timbers. Particularly

stained and sealed surfaces. Some woods
will benefit from opening the grain with a
wire brush. Liming Wax can be overcoated
with Clear Briwax for a more durable finish.
