Step-by-step instructions:
- 1. Cover everything you do not wish to coat, including plants.
- 2. Make sure the wood surface has been properly prepared and is completely dry.
- 3. For color uniformity, intermix all containers being used, and do not thin the product.
- 4. Stir the finish before and periodically during application.
- 5. Test the color, if applicable, in a small area.
- 6. Apply an even coat with a synthetic brush, roller or airless sprayer, avoiding heavy application.
- 7. After spray application, backbrush or backroll to improve penetration and uniformity of coverage. Remember, Flood CWF-UV is not a surface coating. It protects by penetrating the wood surface.

- 9. Allow the finish to dry for 24 to 48 hours.
