PENETRATES WOOD REGARDLESS OF MOISTURE CONTENT
ONE COAT PROTECTION
ULTRAVIOLET (UV) SHIELD

WOOD BREATHES NATURALLY
ACCEPTS TOP-COAT OF STAIN & SEALANTS
 
 
Sawmill and Diptank Users:
TM5-FT is specifically formulated to be effective on freshly cut, newly debarked wood. Treatment should be applied immediately (within 24 hours) to protect logs from deterioration and damage that can occur from UV rays, rain and moisture during storage and processing.
 
Dilution Directions:
Organiclear's™ TM-5FT for commercial use is packaged as a water dilutable treatment. The suggested dilution is two (2) parts water to one (1) part Organiclear™ TM-5FT (2:1). Sawmills and exporters who require greater protection may require less dilution. Refer to product label for dilution instructions.
 
Dipping Instructions:
Carefully empty TM-5FT into the diptank. Add the total amount of water at the proper ratio (2:1 or less). Logs or lumber should be totally immersed to ensure that all wood surfaces are completely treated. For best results, soak lumber for five minutes or longer for each inch of thickness.
 
Drying Time:
Allow 12-24 hours for drying, depending upon the temperature and humidity.
 
Proper Clothes In Handling:
To protect against skin irritation, always wear a long-sleeved shirt, long pants and goggles. Also use an OSHA approved mask to protect against inhaling the vapors. For your information and safety, please take the time to read the product label carefully before use.
 
Care and Maintenance:
See our Log Home Care And Maintenance Guide.
 
Packaging:
Available in 1,5,and 55-gallon containers. The most convenient container for diptank applications will be 55-gallon drums.
