Introduction

Why Garden Rooms Need Protection

Timber offices and studios mix indoor comfort with outdoor exposure. Moisture gets trapped behind non-breathable paints, causing rot.

Why Lacq Produra Excels

The flexible, translucent film lets vapour escape, so insulation stays dry. UV-stable pigments keep modern colours crisp for years.

How to Stain and Protect a Garden Room

1. Clean & Inspect
   Remove cobwebs; check moisture below 18 %.
2. Light Sand (Optional)
   For a smooth interior feel, sand lightly; dust off.
3. Stir & First Coat
   Brush/roll vertical boards top-to-bottom. Avoid lap marks by keeping a wet edge.
4. Wait 6 h, apply second coat.
5. Third Coat (Optional)
   South-facing walls or exposed sills benefit from an extra layer.
6. Cure & Furnish
   Safe to occupy after 24 h; full hardness in several days.
