Application Instructions

SURFACE PREPARATION

Formwork must be free from surface deposits, rust, concrete, oil or other materials. Inadequate cleaning may lead to surface blemishes. Coating new timber formwork with a polyurethane sealer will protect the formwork, increase its service life and improve concrete surface finish.

APPLICATION

Formcoat WB125 can be applied using roller, brush, and sponge or spray application. Non-absorbent surfaces require a single application.

New, unsealed, timber surfaces may need recoating if the first application is absorbed into the timber. If the product is over-applied, excess material should be drained and then carefully removed using a sponge or a cloth.

HEALTH AND SAFETY

Wear rubber gloves and protect eyes with goggles. Wash hands and skin with soap and water immediately after accidental contact.

In case of contact with eyes, immediately flush with plenty of water and seek medical attention.
