Wooden building materials are no less popular today than concrete, brick and others. Therefore, the issue of their protection and waterproofing is very relevant, since as a result of contact with moisture, any wooden surfaces can begin to rot, decompose, etc.
In this article we will tell you whether it is possible to waterproof wooden materials and what are the nuances in the work.
Yes, wood can be waterproofed to completely protect it from moisture or to increase its resistance to moisture. But for this it is important to choose a waterproofing material that is designed specifically for processing wooden surfaces. For example, waterproofing compositions based on polyurethane or acrylic are suitable.
Today on the Ukrainian market there is an excellent waterproofing material - Teknomer 600 1K. This is a polyurethane elastic mastic for protecting wooden surfaces from moisture damage, intended for external use. The material is characterized by high wear resistance, including low temperatures. Mastic is easy to use, as it is one-component and is ready for use immediately after opening the bucket.
The wooden surface must be pre-cleaned and dried, free from dirt, dust or other contaminants. If necessary, the wood can be sanded or treated with special preparations to clean the surface. This will help ensure good adhesion of the waterproofing coating. It is also recommended to use a special primer, thanks to which the waterproofing layer will stick to the surface much more reliably.
If we talk about the above material - Teknomer 600 1K, then it must be applied in 2 layers, with the second perpendicular to the first.
