Rystix Exterior Sealer

In order to maintain and enhance the beautiful natural appearance of Cedar it is essential that you apply the best possible wood treatment.

Rystix Exterior Sealer is a unique product being a hybrid between a penetrating oil and sealer. In other words, it is a combination of a product that soaks into the timber and a product that builds layers on the surface depending on how many coats are applied. The deep penetrating ability enables Rystix Exterior Sealer to obtain a key into the actual surface of the timber. Thereafter the second coat will continue to seal the timber, but will also be the basis of the first layer to form a protective coating on the surface.

Coats 3 and 4, 4 in the case of horizontal decks, 3 in the case of vertical cladding, then build on this penetrating foundation and seal from the second coat to actually form a film which builds thickness on the surface and which affords protection from the weather, the repelling of water and absorption of UV light.

 

Exterior Sealer - Key Points:

  • Long-oil Alkyd resin base (provides tremendous flexibility and will therefore not peel or flake, ultra-long lifespan).
  • Hybrid: unique hybrid between a penetrating oil and a layer building product (obtains a deep penetration into the timber providing a foundation for the layer building).
  • Layer building product (this provides UV protection as opposed to a penetrating oil which does not provide UV protection because it does not build a film layer).
  • Contains UV filters and protects from fungi and insects.
  • Provides long term protection to timbers with high natural oil content which are traditionally very difficult to coat (Cedar, Ipe, Teak, Massaranduba).

 

Instructions for use (hardwoods):

  • Applly at least 3 coats with the first coat being diluted with 25% mineral turpentine.
  • Use with hardening "Additive for Sealer" in a horizontal decking situation that is subject to high traffic flow.
  • Allow each coating to dry thoroughly before applying an additional coating (normal drying time of 8 hours which is reduced to 4 hours if combined with "Additive for Sealer").
  • For best results apply an additional coat within the first 12 months.

 

Instructions for use (softwoods):

  • Applly at least 3 undiluted coats.
  • Use with hardening "Additive for Sealer" in a horizontal decking situation that is subject to high traffic flow.
  • Allow each coating to dry thoroughly before applying an additional coating (normal drying time of 8 hours which is reduced to 4 hours if combined with "Additive for Sealer").
  • For best results apply an additional coat within the first 12 months.

 

Application Tools:

Rystix can be applied using any of the following methods:

  1. Brush on using a regular soft bristle brush .
  2. Spray on using a garden sprayer.
  3. Roller (medium pile).

 

Coverage:

  • Approximately 10 m2 per litre, per coat.
  • A 25ltr tin will cover 250 sq m approximately on a one coat basis. On the recommended 3 coat application a 25ltr tin will cover 85 sq m approx.

 

Good Application Practice:

  • For maximum protection it is essential that sufficient sealer is carefully brushed on to the timber in order to achieve an even protective layer with an overall homogeneous lustre. An uneven or patchy appearance indicates insufficient coating, and an additional coat should be applied, however extra care should be taken when appying clear coatings.
