Product Description:

This product was developed to provide exterior protection without detracting from the texture and graining of natural

wood. Two coats are recommended for maximum protection on most new or unfinished woods. A single coat is

recommended for porches, railings and outdoor furniture.

Precautions:

DO NOT use over previously painted, solid stained or varnished surfaces. Temperatures of both air and surface should

be at least 50°F (10°C) during application and drying time. Do not apply in hot sunlight or if wet weather is expected

within 48 hours. Surfaces are slippery when wet. Use caution when walking on wet surfaces during application. Do not

mix with oil, water or other types of paint or stain. All loose surface wood fibers must be completely removed. Storm

System stains provide maximum resistance to fading and mildew.

conditions. Clean tools and equipment as soon as possible with soap and water. Apply with synthetic brush, roller or

with a mild detergent solution and rinsing with clear water.
