Marine Wood Saturator SBM600 - Marine Wood Protection, Boat Decks

The Marine Wood Saturator SBM600 works like a teak oil and ensures the protection of marine woods: boat decks, sun decks, terraces, garden furniture. Formulated with vegetable oil, this saturator nourishes and impregnates the wood to protect it from the harshest weather conditions such as UV, humidity or bad weather.

Thanks to its oiled finish, the Marine Wood Saturator SBM600 is non-film-forming and does not flake over time, unlike a marine varnish.

It can be applied to both horizontal and vertical surfaces. It is suitable for protecting all types of wood and supports: boat decks, terraces, garden furniture by the sea...

Particularly effective on boat wood, this product can be used to protect a boat deck made of teak, a wood species frequently found on boats. To protect boat wood (such as teak for example), the Marine Wood Saturator SBM600 offers an alternative to teak oils which tend to leave a "greasy and sticky" appearance. Above all, it makes the maintenance of boat decks easy as it does not need to be sanded.

The Marine Wood Saturator SBM600 consists of 90% renewable raw materials. Formulated in aqueous phase, it is respectful of the marine environment and the applicator.

Caution : The Marine Wood Saturator SBM600 offers a reinforced protection especially adapted to marine woods (high exposure to UV, humidity). Nevertheless, compared to woods that grow in mild environments, maintenance with a saturator should be more frequent. It should also be noted that the "Colourless (without pigments)" version contains no pigments and protects less from UV rays than the stained versions (Teak or Ipe).

HOW TO USE MARINE WOOD SATURATOR SBM600

PREPARE THE MARINE WOOD

• The wood must be clean, dry, dust-free and without traces of old finishes.

• On old finishes, strip, clean, or sand down to the raw wood. Dust carefully.

APPLICATION OF THE SATURATOR

• Ready to use product, shake the saturator well before application for a good dispersion of pigments. No dilution is necessary.

• Make sure that the ambient temperature is between +10°C (50F) and +35°C (95F).

• Apply until saturation (in the direction of the wood grain) with a brush, spalter or roller (short bristles), in 1 regular and fine coat. Apply without interruption to avoid "recoating" effects. Allow to penetrate for a few minutes and then wipe off the excess with a cloth. For very absorbent surfaces, apply a 2nd coat after a minimum drying time of 2 hours without exceeding 24 hours.

DRYING

• Allow to dry. Complete drying achieved in 24-48 hours. Wait at least 24 hours before putting back into use. Take a few precautions during the first few days.

MAINTAINING MARINE WOOD

• Maintain as soon as the shade of the wood becomes lighter and duller under the action of the weather and the sun's UV radiation. On clean and dust-free wood, simply apply a new coat of Marine Wood Saturator SBM600. A light ginning can be carried out if necessary.

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE APPLYING THE SATURATOR

• Do not apply at temperatures below 10°C (50F).

• Do not apply in direct sunlight and at a temperature above 35°C (95F).

• Do not apply on wood that is grey, blackened and/or with the presence of mould (black spots).

• Do not apply in rainy weather

TIPS

• To appreciate the final rendering, make a preliminary test of the saturator on a drop or an inconspicuous area.
