Common Problems UK Customers Face

1. Frequent Recoating
   Many off-the-shelf treatments fade or peel quickly, leading to constant touch-ups and rising costs.

2. Harsh Chemicals & Strong Odours
   Traditional wood treatments can release pungent fumes and harmful solvents, making application unpleasant and raising safety concerns.

3. UV Damage & Weathering
   Intense sun can bleach wood, while rain and cold cause swelling, cracking, or mould growth over time.

4. Poor Adhesion & Flaking
   Cheap finishes often form a superficial layer that peels away under stress—ruining the wood’s appearance.

5. Limited Colour Range
   Many standard wood stains or paints offer minimal colour choices, leaving you with unexciting or mismatched finishes.

If you’re grappling with any of these frustrations, Lacq Produra provides a practical, earth-friendly alternative that lasts longer and looks better.

How It Works (Simplified)

1. Natural Components
   Vegetable oil deeply penetrates the wood, nourishing it from within. Meanwhile, the water-based formula ensures low odour and quick drying.

2. Minimal Solvents, High Efficacy
   While many finishes rely on heavy solvents, Produra uses advanced chemistry to deliver professional-grade protection with a smaller environmental footprint.

3. Flexible, Non-Cracking Film
   Once cured, Produra forms a breathable layer that expands and contracts with the wood—preventing cracking, peeling, or blistering.

4. UV Protection
   Built-in UV filters help maintain the wood’s colour, reducing the bleaching effect of harsh sunlight.

5. Breathable Shield
   Allows moisture to escape from the wood, preventing rot or mould development while keeping external elements at bay.

Expert Advice & Tips

1. Surface Prep

• Remove dirt, old finishes, or debris.
• Lightly sand if needed, especially if the wood is rough or previously coated.

2. Application

• Stir thoroughly before use.
• Apply evenly in the direction of the wood grain with your preferred tool.
• Avoid over-application—better to use multiple thin coats for a uniform finish.

3. Drying & Recoating

• Wait around 6 hours before adding a second or third coat.
• Ensure good ventilation if applying indoors—while Produra is low in solvents, airflow speeds drying.

4. Maintenance

• If the wood is in a high-traffic or weather-exposed area, inspect yearly for signs of wear.
• Clean occasionally to remove dirt or algae and maintain the finish.

5.Colour Testing

• Always test on a discreet patch to confirm how the chosen colour reacts with your wood type.

FAQs & Troubleshooting

1. Can I apply it over previously painted or varnished surfaces?
   For best results, remove or sand down old coatings. Produra’s penetrative benefits work best on bare or lightly finished wood.

2. Is it safe for indoor wood projects?
   Yes, its low-solvent formula and minimal odour make it suitable for interior use as well.

3. How many coats do I need on untreated timber?
   We recommend 2–3 coats for long-lasting protection and consistent colour.

4. Will it prevent mould or algae growth?
   While it resists moisture, ensure proper cleaning and maintenance for surfaces prone to algae or mildew.

5. What if the colour appears different than I expected?
   Factors like wood species and porosity can affect colour. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
