DESCRIPTION AND USES
Wolman™ Raincoat® One Coat Clear Sealer is a clear oil-
based exterior water repellant designed to provide
protection against water damage and mildew. Raincoat
One Coat Clear Sealer formula is colorless which allows
the wood’s original color and grain to show through while
protecting the surface from water damage.
Unlike other water-base sealers that require wood to be
weathered for months, Raincoat One Coat Clear Sealer can
be applied immediately to newly installed wood to stop rain
and other precipitation from damaging wood.
The NeverWet® hydrophobic technology with excellent
water repellency helps maximize resistance to wood
cracking, checking, splitting and warping. Raincoat One
Coat Clear Sealer is suitable for use on all types of
pressure treated lumber, Cedar, Redwood, Poplar, Hickory
and other North American hardwoods.
Use Raincoat One Coat Clear Sealer to beautify and
protect decks, porches, fences, shake, shingle and
clapboard siding, boat decks, boardwalks, outdoor furniture,
gazebos, arbors and trellises, storage sheds and more.
DO NOT USE ON ANY CONCRETE SURFACE. Do not
use on driveways, garages or other areas with vehicular
traffic.
Wolman Raincoat One Coat can be applied using a ⅜”
nap roller, a short nap stain pad, synthetic paint brush
or a pump style sprayer.

PRODUCT APPLICATION
SURFACE PREPARATION
The surface preparation process described below should be
followed to achieve optimum performance of this product.
REGARDLESS OF AGE OR SURFACE CONDITION, FAILURE TO
FOLLOW ONE OF THESE PREPARATION METHODS WILL
RESULT IN POOR ADHESION AND POSSIBLE COATINGS
FAILURE. Note: For newly installed pressure treated lumber, pre-
treat the surface with this product and allow to weather at least 6
months before applying a pigmented finish or stain. This step
is recommended to best protect unseasoned wood.
PRODUCT APPLICATION (cont.)
SURFACE PREPARATION (cont.)
Prepare the surface with Wolman DeckStrip® or
DeckStrip ASR, then use Wolman DeckBrite™ or Deck &
Fence Brightener based on wood condition described
below.
PREVIOUSLY COATED, WEATHERED WOOD
For best results, previous coatings such as paints, solid color
and semi-transparent stains, transparent stains, toners or
clear sealers in a weathered state, should be stripped to
create a bare, sound surface for maximum coating adhesion
and durability. To remove oil, alkyd or latex, water base
stains, use Wolman DeckStrip Stain & Finish Remover. For
100% acrylic solid or semi-solid stains, use Wolman
DeckStrip ASR Acrylic Stain Remover.
Thoroughly clean with Wolman DeckBrite or Deck & Fence
Brightener to remove chalky paint residue, embedded dirt,
mildew and other contaminants, residual coating material
and water repellents. According to label guidelines, select
the appropriate cleaning product for your wood type, use
according to directions and rinse with a power washer for
best results. When dry, scrape off and sand any remaining
loose flaking or peeling coating using 50 or 60 grit
sandpaper. After wood is dry, conduct a splash test
(described below).
UNCOATED, WEATHERED WOOD
Before staining, bare, weathered wood must be thoroughly
cleaned to remove ground-in dirt, mildew, mold and algae
stains, gray, UV damaged wood fibers any other surface
contaminants. Using a non-bleach deck cleaner, according
to label guidelines, select the appropriate product for your
particular wood type, then follow usage directions on the
label, rinse and let dry. After wood is rinsed and dry,
conduct a Splash Test.
UNCOATED, NEW WOOD
Unlike other water-base sealers that require wood to be
weathered for months, Raincoat One Coat Clear Sealer can
be applied immediately to newly installed wood to stop rain
and other precipitation from damaging wood. If new wood is
Cedar or Redwood, “mill glaze” on the surface is a common
condition. Eliminate these barriers by using either Wolman
DeckBrite or Deck & Fence Brightener. According to label
guidelines, select the appropriate product for your particular
wood type, follow usage directions on label, rinse and let dry.
After wood is rinsed and dry, conduct a Splash Test
(described below).
After preparation, conduct a Splash Test on bare wood to
confirm water absorption before applying this product.
