Dex 1+2 works like a penetrating wood oil, soaking deeply into the
surface and providing protection against scratches, surface damage and
peeling. Contains UV filters which protect the wood from the effects of
sunlight. The finish obtained with Dex 1+2 is like a varnish and can be
either a gloss or smooth satin sheen. |

Preparation |
PREVIOUSLY VARNISHED WOOD: Any existing varnish should be removed
with a chemical remover or by sanding. Bleach any stains with Yacht Line
Teak Restorer then treat as follows:
BARE WOOD: Sand smooth with 80-180 grade paper and then 280 grade
paper. Remove sanding dust by brushing, dusting and wiping. If wiping
with solvent then allow to dry completely before applying the first
coat. |

Method |
1 SATURATION Apply Dex 1+2 with a cloth or brush and allow to soak deep
into the wood. When surface appears matt, continue with further coats
until the wood is fully saturated (normally 3 coats within a 2 hour
period). Do not allow to dry between coats. Leave for recommended
overcoating time. +2 FINISHING Apply a further 6-7 coats. For a smooth
satin sheen, lightly sand using Dex 1+2 as the sanding medium with
400-1200 grade wet or dry paper. Wipe off residue. For increased satin
gloss, rag apply a final thin coat. For teak decks, brush on 2 coats
thinned 15-20%. |
