Description
Imprex is a special light-coloured tar extracted from pinewood. It is practically free from acetic acid, phenols and mineral products. Imperex conservs the wood by making the surface water resistance.
The main area for usage is for wood and oakum and rope preservation. It can also be used with transparent colour pastes for making wood stains.For wood preservation Imprex shall be mixed with linseed oil before use. Petroleum solvent or gum turpentine can be used as diluents.
Instructions for use
For wood preservation, Imprex should not be used unmixed, a recommendable mixture is one third each of Imprex, boiled linseed oil, and turpentine. This compound gives a particularly light shade of tar to the wood. Make sure that the wood is absolutely dry before you tar it.
Imprex can also be used with transparent colour pastes for making wood stain. As any other Pine Tar Imprex will fade by the sunlight, it should be applied with a brush in thin layers. During rainy weather white spots may occur. They will disappear when the surrounding air is dry enough. Add linseed oil to avoid this.
