Barrettine Wood Reviver

Barrettine Wood Reviver is a water-based gel that restores hard and soft woods to their natural tone before refinishing. Wood Reviver is suitable for both rough sawn and smooth timber that is greyed by harmful UV rays or weather damaged. Ideal for windows, sheds, fences, decking and outdoor wooden furniture.

Ensure that surfaces to be treated are clean and free from all surface coatings and contaminates before treating. Barrettine Wood Reviver may remove some existing wood finishes, however if surface coatings remain, use Paint Panther Paint and Varnish Remover or Barrettine PeelAway to remove oil, paint, varnish or wax. A test area is recommended before wider application.

• Do not use a pressure washer to clean wood prior to application of Wood Reviver.
• Protect plants as product splashes may cause localised leaf browning.
• Avoid contact with calcareous stones e.g. limestone/marble as damage may occur.
• Direct/prolonged application to metal fixings (especially zinc) should be avoided to prevent potential discolouration/damage. If the product does make contact, rinse thoroughly with water using a damp cloth.
• Wear protective clothing and keep children and pets away from treated areas until the area has been rinsed.

Apply in weather conditions between 5-30°C, out of direct sunlight. Before applying Barrettine Wood Reviver, wet the wood with water. This will aid absorption and yield greater results.

1. Apply generously to all visible sides of wood/panels in the direction of the wood grain using a brush or roller to areas 2m at a time to prevent the wood from drying out. If the wood does dry, repeat wetting by spraying with water or wipe with a damp cloth to rehydrate
2. Leave the Wood Reviver to work for 15-30 min
3. Agitate by rubbing the surface with a cloth or non-metal brush dampened with water.
4. Finally rinse again thoroughly. Repeat the process as necessary.

As a precaution against inactive mould spores use Barrettine Mould and Mildew Cleaner. Wood restoration and the colour change may not be fully visible until the wood has dried. This can take up to 24 hours.

Please note: The appearance of the revived wood will vary depending on wood type, age and condition. A test area is always recommended before wider application. A light sanding may be required to restore a smooth finish.

After treatment of Barrettine Wood Reviver, it is vital that a wood preservative and/or top coat is applied to prevent further UV/weather damage. It is always advised to use a coloured finish where possible as these will have greater UV protection than clear options.

Depending on the area treated, any suitable Barrettine top coat can be applied, including, Barrettine Premier Wood Preserver, Barrettine Wood Protective Treatment, Barrettine UV Decking Oil, Barrettine Garden Furniture Oil or Barrettine Teak Oil for hardwood garden furniture.
