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 of the specific exterior wood stain AML3542/XX followed 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, give 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 colour 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. With longer drying times it’s necessary to sand with 220 grit abrasive paper before applying the second coat of deck topcoat
