Instructions / Assembly

Step 1: After cleaning the surface, slowly apply caulking into

the check of the wood from one end to the other. The caulking

should penetrate into the check and fill it up leaving little excess

on the outside of the wood.

Step 2: Remove excess

caulking from wood with

putty knife or scraper leaving

a smooth surface over the

check. . .

Step 2 cont... leaving minimal

excess caulk.

Step 3: Allow caulking to dry

according to manufacturer’s recom-

mendation. If the repaired surface

of the caulking seems to have

shrunk into the check, apply a sec-

ond coat of caulk and allow time to

dry.

Step 4: When caulking has

dried, sand surface lightly

with sanding pad to remove

excess caulk. The acrylic

latex paint we use tends to

stay soft and pliable. Sand

with light quick strokes, being

careful not to remove original

coat of paint.

Step 5: When applying touch-up paint to wood, apply a thick coat of paint to cover area, smooth out

with brush or roller and allow time to dry (generally less than 6 hours). The touch-up paint will work

as a primer and a topcoat. Apply a second coat of paint after the first coat has dried. The second

coat of paint is essential to provide long lasting protection and restore the repaired area to the same

luster as the original paint.
