External use – timber used outside needs easy maintenance
Pre-primed
Many architects use Western Red Cedar exclusively for painted applications because it stays flat and straight like no other, giving a perfect, consistent finish.
Cedar Sales offers a pre-priming service for external cladding, providing a high quality, external grade undercoat before it’s delivered to site for installation and painting.
- Achieves clean, sharp lines and a long-lasting professional look.
- Using Western Red Cedar for painted applications avoids minimises warping or twisting, and pulling of nails.
Cutek®
Cutek® is a proven penetrating oil, with Colortone additives, for external timber products.
- Cedar Sales offers a two-coat process applied at the plant using Cutek® Clear. It is recommended that a pigmented coating is applied on-site for additional protection after installation.
- Easy to apply without the need to sand.
- Doesn’t peel or crack.
- Works by penetration rather than by forming a film.
- Provides long-term weather protection, stabilises timber and repels moisture.
