For its natural appeal and strong identity, wood is the best choice for any outdoor environment where a stylish, elegant and functional design is required. The essential elegance of natural wood must, however, be protected against the elements: resistance to exterior weathering and durability are therefore crucial.
SEASIDECK is an extremely versatile outdoor coating system, designed for decking, beach huts, resorts, garden furniture, gazebos and benches, where application on site by brush or roller is often needed. The coating system has been designed to provide high outdoor durability, excellent adhesion (even in high humidity environments) and outstanding water resistance all very important characteristics for the end use conditions.
The coating system comprises application by dipping, brush, or roller of the specific exterior wood stain AML3542/XX followed by brush, roller or manual spray by a water-based, matt high performance topcoat for deck such as AZL3541/XX or AZL6288/85.
AML3542/XX is a water-based exterior wood stain with high wood penetration and wettability, specific for hardwood such as doussié, teak, iroko, mahogany, Iack wood, kumbuk, niangon, thulan, etc. and modified timbers such as accoya and thermo pine. It contains new generation additives to reduce lignin degradation, which combined with semitransparent iron oxides, gives high color stability against UV exposure. AML3542/XX is available in four different colors (85/89/90/92) and one neutral version (N0) and is compatible with XA4034/XX and XA2006/XX pastes to obtain all desired shades. AZL3541/XX is a deep matt water-based high performance topcoat that, with its low sheen (4 gloss) and its excellent penetration into hardwoods, creates a natural wood effect on decking. Available in larch color AZL3541/85 and neutral version AZL3541/NN, and can be tinted with XA4034/XX and XA2006/XX pastes. For a optimum clarity over dark stains an alternative topcoat is 25 gloss version in larch color AZL6288/85.
Apply the AML3542/XX water-based exterior wood stain directly on to well sanded wood and after approximatively two hours drying apply the first coat of water-based deck topcoat AZL3541/XX or AZL6288/85. For higher build and protection, apply a second topcoat after 4 hours drying without sanding.
The coating system exhibits high stability against sunlight and outdoor exposure, even in challenging seaside environmental conditions. Excellent resistance to water, moisture and other cold liquids. Good/excellent performance in artificial atmosphere corrosion test – natural salt spray test (NSS) – ISO 9227 2006.
The deck allows us to walk barefoot on a terrace by the sea, to go directly from the wood to the water, in a natural way. SEASIDECK, created for seaside and design, protects and beautifies your deck.
