NATIONAL GUARDIAN – WOOD TREATMENT
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
National Guardian Wood Treatment is a specially formulated penetrating sealer and conditioner which reacts with properties inherent in all wood and wood-based materials. Wood Treatment is an aqueous compound which works from the inside and becomes an integral component of the material. Wood Treatment provides the following benefits:
– Seals against water penetration and damage
– Aids in preventing damage from mildew
– Resists warping and cracking
– Resists insect damage
– Increases resistance to fire
– Improves adhesion of other coatings
National Guardian Wood Treatment is not a surface coating which will wear off or be affected by weather or ultra-violet radiation. Treatment with National Guardian Wood Treatment does not change the appearance of most wood species. As a non-toxic, non-flammable, odorless, clear, acid resistant compound, National Guardian Wood Treatment greatly extends the useful life of wood products and structures without environment impact.
The increase in fire resistance is a distinct advantage of National Guardian Wood Treatment over other methods and products. Wood Treatment will resist the de-laminating tendencies commonly associated with flame retarding compounds. By reacting with and altering the materials utilized by insects as a food source, Wood Treatment negates the damage of insect infestation.
LIMITATIONS
National Guardian Wood Treatment should be applied to materials that are free of paints, coatings or other foreign materials. Pressure treated woods are acceptable for use with Wood Treatment and the moisture-proofing benefit of Wood Treatment will prevent the qualities of pressure treating chemicals from leaching from the wood.
