Cabot’s New Timber Prep is a specialist exterior timber preparation product that removes tannins and surface oils from bare new timber so you can coat it immediately. Normally new timber needs to weather for 4–6 weeks before finishing, but this solution accelerates that process by drawing out oils and tannins that can interfere with coatings. After using New Timber Prep, follow with a dedicated timber cleaner for best adhesion and finish quality.

Key Features:

• Designed to remove tannins and oils from new timber for immediate coating

• Helps you skip the usual 4–6 week weathering wait on new timber

• Ideal for exterior timber and decking preparation

• Easy to apply with brush and rinses clean with water

• Coverage approx. 10 m² per litre

Benefits:
Cabot’s New Timber Prep gets new timber ready for oils, stains, paints or varnishes without long delays. By pulling surface tannins and oils out of the wood, coatings go on more evenly and adhere better. Use this product before a deck cleaner or coating to improve the appearance and performance of exterior finishes.

Application Tips:
Ensure timber is damp before applying. Brush the prep generously over the surface, let it work, then scrub and rinse thoroughly. After rinsing, follow up with a timber cleaner to remove any residue before coating.
