PeneTreat: 3.5 Gallon Bucket

Description:
PeneTreat by Sashco is a borate-based wood preservative that forms a shell of protection to defend against rot, most wood-destroying insects and fungi. It is easy to apply and an inexpensive way to protect your investment for years to come. PeneTreat is a powder concentrate that is mixed with water and then applied with a brush or sprayed on with a garden sprayer. It is odorless, colorless and will not interfere with the adhesion of your stain, chinking or caulking materials.

The Basics in Applying PeneTreat

How long should I wait after applying PeneTreat before I can stain?
The moisture content of the wood must be below 20%. Two days is usually enough time for the PeneTreat to dry before applying stain in a warm and dry climate.

What are the little white, sparkly crystals on my logs after I applied PeneTreat? How do I get rid of them?
The whitish micro-flakes are just the crystallized PeneTreat material. Brush them off with a stiff broom before you apply any stain material. Wear eye and respiratory protection when brushing the crystals from the wood.

What does Penetreat prevent?
PeneTreatcontrols wood-destroying fungi that actually cause rot. PeneTreat also helps control many wood boring insects that are killed when they ingest the treated wood. Penetreat does not prevent mildew.
