Duram One For Wood is a premium, water-based acrylic coating specifically engineered to simplify wood maintenance. By combining a primer, sealer, and topcoat into a single high-performance product, it provides a deep-penetrating, UV-resistant barrier that protects against the harsh South African climate while enhancing the natural beauty of the wood.
Key Performance Features
- All-In-One Technology: Acts as a primer, sealer, and weather-resistant topcoat in one, eliminating the need for separate products and reducing labor time.
- Superior UV & Weather Resistance: Formulated with advanced light-stabilizers and water-repellent resins that prevent graying, cracking, and warping caused by sun and rain.
- Flexible “Breathable” Film: Creates a tough yet elastic coating that moves with the natural expansion and contraction of the wood, preventing peeling and flaking.
- Deep Penetration: Wicks into the wood fibers to provide a powerful mechanical bond and long-lasting protection from within.
Ideal Applications
- Exterior Woodwork: The perfect choice for gates, fences, fascia boards, pergolas, and garden furniture.
- Interior Timber: Ideal for window frames, door frames, skirting boards, and wooden ceilings.
- Softwoods & Hardwoods: Suitable for a wide range of timbers, including Pine, Meranti, and Saligna.
- New or Weathered Wood: Can be applied to new timber or previously coated wood (after proper sanding to reach the bare grain).
Product Benefits
- Eco-Friendly & Low Odor: Being water-based, it is safer for the environment and more comfortable to use indoors than traditional solvent-based varnishes.
- Fast-Drying Efficiency: Touch-dry in just 30 to 60 minutes, allowing you to apply multiple coats and finish your project in a single day.
- Easy Cleanup: No harsh chemicals required—simply wash your brushes and rollers with soapy water.
Pro Tip: For the best results on exterior wood, apply at least three coats. Ensure you coat the “end-grain” (the cut ends of the wood) heavily, as this is where moisture most easily penetrates and causes rot.
