Cuprinol CX Wood Preserver 5L Clear

Cuprinol CX Wood Preserver Clear is a colourless, water-based wood treatment designed to protect both interior and exterior timber from biological degradation. It acts as a general-purpose preservative that penetrates deeply into sound wood, creating a protective barrier against wood-rotting fungi, mould growth and blue-stain fungi. The product is formulated for use on wood that may be exposed to occasional dampness or condensation indoors, or for external woodwork that requires protection before final finishing. The preservative features a low-odour, low-aromatic solvent formulation that makes application more pleasant and convenient. It actively prevents rot and decay while allowing the natural grain and colour of the wood to show through. This clear treatment provides a matt finish and is specifically intended as a basecoat before painting, staining or varnishing, ensuring better adhesion and longevity of the final finish. Coverage is approximately 5 square metres per litre when applying two coats, with drying times around 16 hours depending on surface conditions and weather. This wood preserver is suitable for DIY enthusiasts and professionals working on various wood projects, including garden fences, sheds, decking, interior joinery and timber structures. Its versatility makes it practical for preventative maintenance on both new and existing wood, helping to extend the lifespan of timber elements around the home. The water-based formula cleans up easily with water and comes with a manufacturer's two-year guarantee for added peace of mind.
