How to Coat a Timber Deck using Sikkens Cetol BLX-Pro

Watch our series of How-to videos on preparing your deck.

Prior to coating, ensure the timber is tannin free and clean

Step one, ensure the surface of your deck is thoroughly sanded using 60 grit sandpaper. This will raise the grain of the timber allowing optimum penetration and adhesion. Clean the decking so it's free from dust and debris after sanding.

Step two, using a good quality brush, such as the Sikkens easy deck brush and liberally apply Sikkens Cetol BL X Pro in the direction of the timber grain in your preferred colour. Apply three coats to your timber deck and allow two hours to dry between each application.
