Sheds, cabins, summer houses and outhouses have been a huge trend this year - are you ready to embrace it? Enhance your colourful garden
designs with Rubio Woodcream. Carry out these easy steps to prepare, protect and look after your shed or outside buildings.
THE STAGES OF REFRESHING YOUR SHED

Correct preparation of wood is crucial for an optimal protective finish. At least half of the success of colouring and protecting your wood is determined by prior preparation.

After preparation, you can start colouring and protecting wood with Rubio Monocoat's revolutionary Oil Plus 2C.

Preparing, colouring and protecting wood is one thing, but maintaining it is equally as important. You should look to regularly clean your exterior surfaces with the advice for
individual applications.
PREPARATION
Preparation isn't only for interior wood, exterior projects also need to be prepped well before applying our protective oils. Follow these three steps to make sure you're preparing your decking the right way.

Step One:
Make sure to remove all residues of old applications. Dampen the surface with water, using a hose or high-pressure cleaner.

Step Two:
Apply Exterior Wood Cleaner.

Step Three:
Scrub the surface with a nylon scrubby brush in the lengthwise direction of the wood until it's clean. Allow the surface to dry well.

Step Four:
Dilute your WoodCream with WoodCream softener if you wish to have a different shade.
