How To Care For H3 treated pine timber Products
H3 treated pine timber is a popular choice for outdoor use due to its affordability and resistance against insects and moisture. However, to maintain the quality of the product and prolong it's lifespan, proper care and maintenance are essential.
Typically, H3 treated pine timber products have only been treated externally. This means that any newly exposed primed pine, such as H3 treated pine timber that has been cut or cracked, may not be protected against insects or the elements. Therefore, to ensure that your H3 treated pine timber does not rot or decay, H3 treated pine timber products should always be painted & never used below ground.
When painting your Treated h3 pine product, we recommend using a water based undercoat/primer, and at least 2 coats of the final colour. This will help prevent your Treated h3 pine product from cracking in the sun by providing an additional barrier, thereby stopping any untreated timber from being exposed.
Treated h3 pine products should never be left raw (nor oiled or stained) when being used outdoors as this leaves them susceptible to splitting and cracking. Additionally, due to the dye used in the treatment process, Treated h3 pine often has a blue/green exterior.
