    Brings weathered, greyed/silvered wood back to original appearance
  • REMOVES STUBBORN STAINS
    Such as iron stains, water marks, tannins, resins, mould and fungus
  • PREPARES NEW WOOD FOR COATING
    Removes common invisible glaze (‘mill glaze’) from newly sawn wood or machined wood

TYPICAL USES

CUTEK® Wood Reviver will not remove paint and wood coatings from your wood. In these instances, remove with CUTEK® Wood Stripper.

STEP 1   PREPARE

Before Applying:

It is important for the user to determine the suitability of the CUTEK® Wood Reviver for its intended application. ALWAYS test product on a small test area prior to applying to any large sections. As the species and condition of wood can vary significantly, testing will enable you to accurately estimate if dilution is required, working time, and amount of CUTEK® Wood Reviver required to complete your project.

Safety and Precautions:

Before you begin to Prepare and Protect your wood, note the hazards and precautions and ensure that you have obtained and know how to use the correct safety equipment as detailed in the Safety Data Sheet.

When using CUTEK® Wood Reviver, all adjacent surfaces and vegetation must be adequately protected. It is also important to be aware of the potential for wind drift into areas with cars or pedestrian traffic when rinsing. Water flush all equipment, vegetation, paths, concrete, asphalt and other adjacent surfaces before and after contact.

Coverage:

Spreading rate is approximately 1 Litre of CUTEK® Wood Reviver per 5-8.5m2 of surface area, or 1 US gal of CUTEK® Wood Reviver per 200-350 ft2 of surface area to be restored.

CUTEK® Wood Reviver is a powerful wood restoring agent and can be used diluted or undiluted. Coverage can vary depending on the smoothness and density of your wood as well as the severity of staining and/or weathering. Always test to determine if your chosen dilution is effective in the restoration of your specific wood.

Application:

Wet your wood prior to applying CUTEK® Wood Reviver. Apply CUTEK® Wood Reviver liberally to wetted wood with a brush, roller, broom or low-pressure garden sprayer.

Let CUTEK® Wood Reviver do the work by leaving it on the surface for 1 hour to 24 hours depending on the severity of staining or discolouration. It may be necessary to scrub stubborn stains moderately with a stiff fibre brush.

Removal:

Rinse off thoroughly, using a pressure washer set to approximately 50 bar (750 p.s.i.) with a fan jet pattern. REMOVAL WITH A GARDEN HOSE IS NOT SUFFICIENT.
CAUTION must be used to avoid damage to the wood fibre and ‘furring up’. Adjust your cleaning process by reducing the pressure or your operating distance from the wood. DO NOT use “turbojets” on wood.

Rinse from the highest point and work down methodically using long even strokes in the direction of the grain, until there is minimal to no sudsing. The longer that CUTEK® Wood Reviver is left on the wood, the greater the rinse time required.

Note: certain types of wood surfaces may leave a raised grain effect after pressure washing is completed. Sanding or poly pad scrubbing may be required to smooth out this condition.

Clean Up:

Equipment may be cleaned with water. Ensure wash water is disposed in accordance with local regulations.

  • What steps should I follow when removing an existing coating?

    CUTEK® Extreme must be applied to bare, clean and dry wood. This allows the oil to freely penetrate/diffuse into your wood. Wood previously coated with a film forming product such as stains, linseed oil, paint, polyurethane, water-based oils, etc. can inhibit this penetration/diffusion and must be removed using the following steps:

    1. Remove previous coating using CUTEK® Wood Stripper. It is safe and user-friendly and is suitable to remove multiple layers of most commonly used wood coatings.
    2. Restore the colour and enhance the grain with CUTEK® Wood Reviver. CUTEK® Wood Reviver will bring weathered and stained wood back to life.

    After removing the previous coating, it is important to protect your exterior wood with CUTEK® Extreme to repel and displace moisture, and extend service life.

  • What is the difference between CUTEK® Quickclean and CUTEK® Wood Reviver?

    CUTEK® Quickclean is a powerful general purpose outdoor cleaner that removes dirt, grease and grim from outdoor surfaces. It is excellent to use to clean wood in preparation for a maintenance coat of CUTEK® Extreme.

    CUTEK® Wood Reviver is a wood restoration agent that restores stained, weathered and grey wood back to its original appearance. CUTEK® Wood Reviver is effective in removing stubborn stains caused by tannins, water, iron, resins, mould and fungus. It should be used for weathered wood, to remove stains from wood and/or to restore wood back to its original appearance. Typically, CUTEK® Wood Reviver is utilized to rejuvenate wood before the initial coat of CUTEK® Extreme is applied. It can also be used to prepare new wood for coating by removing common side effects of machining lumber such as “mill glaze” and excess extractives.

  • There are plenty of wood cleaners on the market, what makes CUTEK® Wood Reviver different?

    CUTEK® Wood Reviver is a commercial strength restoration agent with a thirty-year pedigree. Designed by professionals for professionals, it works quickly to remove heavy discolouration, greying, iron stains, water stains, mould stains, etc. from all species of wood, while brightening the natural grain.  Unlike most DIY cleaners CUTEK® Wood Reviver resists drying out on a hot day. It keeps working with a deep cleaning action, continuing the restoration process when others stop, without needing to keep the wood’s surface wet.
