HOW TO USE

Ensure timber is clean, dry and free from dust, wax, grease and contamination

Shake thoroughly before use and stir occasionally during application
Always perform a colour test on a hidden area before full application

Application:
• Apply using a clean brush, lint-free cloth or spray equipment
• Apply evenly following the timber grain direction
• Allow approximately 15 minutes drying between coats
• Additional coats will produce a darker colour intensity

For Lighter Shades:
• Carefully dilute using Methylated Spirits
• Always test colour before full application

Overcoating:
• Allow stain to dry for 30–60 minutes before applying a protective finish

Recommended Interior Overcoats:
• Nova 17 Novathane PU Varnish
• Nova 12 Novafloor

Recommended Exterior Overcoats:
• Nova 14 Novaseal Marine Sealer
• Nova 16 Novaglow Varnish
• Nova 19 Novashield

Critical: Nova 18 is not a protective coating and must always be overcoated with a suitable sealer or varnish. Do not premix Nova 18 directly into any varnish or topcoat.

Tip: Different timber species absorb stain differently. Always test on offcuts or an inconspicuous area before staining the entire project.
