in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
• If you desire to apply a paint, stain, clear water repellent, or other nish to your re retardant treated wood, we recommend following the
manufacturer’s instructions and label of the nishing product. Before you start, we recommend you apply the nishing product to a small exposed test
area before completing the entire project to insure it provides the intended result before proceeding.
• Projects should be designed and installed in accordance with federal, state, and local building codes and ordinances governing construction in your
area and in accordance with the National Design Specications (NDS) and the Wood Handbook.
• Mold growth can and does occur on the surface of many products, including untreated and re retardant treated wood, during prolonged surface
exposure to excessive moisture conditions. To remove mold from the treated wood surface, wood should be allowed to dry. Typically, mild soap and
water can be used to remove remaining surface mold. For more information visit www.epa.gov.
