Surface must be dry and clean. Remove all dust, dirt, mildew, oil, loose wood fibers and other contaminants. Remove loose, peeling stain
by sanding, scraping or wire brushing. To ensure proper adhesion, weathered, dirty or mildewed surfaces should be cleaned with FLOOD
Wood Cleaner prior to applying stain. After rinsing, allow wood to dry. Remove grade stamps or pencil marks by sanding.
WARNING! If you scrape, sand, or remove old paint, you may release lead dust or fumes. LEAD IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD
DUST OR FUMES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN
SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a properly fitted NIOSH-approved respirator and prevent skin contact to control lead
exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself and your fam-
ily by contacting the USEPA National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead. In Canada, con-
tact a regional Health Canada office. Follow these instructions to control exposure to other hazardous substances that may be
released during surface preparation.
PRECAUTIONS
DANGER! COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID AND VAPOR. HARMFUL OR FATAL IF SWALLOWED. CAUSES RESPIRATORY TRACT AND
EYE IRRITATION.
Inhalation of high concentrations of vapor may affect the central nervous system. Repeated exposure to high vapor concentrations may
cause irritation of the respiratory system and permanent brain and nervous system damage. High vapor concentrations can cause headaches, dizziness,
drowsiness and nausea and may lead to unconsciousness. Can enter lungs and cause damage. Keep away from heat and flame. Do not breathe vapor or
mist. Do not swallow. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Wash thoroughly after handling. Provide fresh air
ventilation during and after application and drying. Avoid the inhalation of dust, particulates, spray or mist arising from the application of this preparation. Use
personal protective equipment as required. DANGER - RAGS, STEEL WOOL OR WASTE SOAKED WITH FLOOD SEMI-TRANSPARENT ALKYD/OIL STAIN
MAY SPONTANEOUSLY CATCH FIRE IF IMPROPERLY DISCARDED. IMMEDIATELY AFTER EACH USE, PLACE RAGS, STEEL WOOL OR WASTE IN
A SEALED WATER-FILLED METAL CONTAINER. Note: These warnings encompass the product series. Prior to use, read and follow product-specific
MSDS and label information. FIRST AID: If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). Call physician immediately. Do not induce
vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. If in eyes, rinse with water for 15 minutes. Check for and remove any contact lenses. If on skin,
rinse well with water. Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops. If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If experiencing respiratory symp-
toms call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. Keep out of the reach of children. For workplace use, an MSDS is available from your retailer or by calling
(412) 492-5555. EMERGENCY SPILL INFORMATION: (412) 434-4515 (U.S.).
While this product provides a mildew resistant coating, growth may still occur if the substrate is not properly prepared prior to painting and/or
if the substrate is consistently exposed to conditions conducive to mold, mildew, and algae. Examples of these conditions include, but are
not limited to, under eaves, behind shrubbery and trees, and in areas that are consistently damp with little to no direct sunlight.
FOR EXTERIOR USE ONLY.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Apply when no precipitation is expected for 24 hours, and when air and surface temperatures are 50°F (10°C) to 90°F (32°C) and will remain
above 50°F (10°C) for the next 24 hours. Avoid staining in direct sunlight or on hot surfaces. DO NOT THIN. Intermix containers to ensure
color uniformity. Stir thoroughly and often during use. Apply to a small area and allow stain to dry to ensure acceptable appearance. Apply
one thin coat with a high quality brush, roller, paint or stain-pad, or with spray equipment. When applying by roller or spray, always back-
brush for best results. To help avoid lap marks, apply to only a few boards at a time, and maintain a wet edge. Do not saturate or puddle
on horizontal surfaces.
