The proprietary catalyst in CretoWood allows it to penetrate through the layers of cells in the wood, where CretoWood reacts with both the acids and the alkali present in the individual cells of most woods forming an areo silica gel membrane on the surfaces of the cell walls. |
|
This membrane forms an internal seal and
barrier against water and other causes
of deterioration.
Over the 6 to 12 months following application, the aero silica gel membrane formed will hydrate and harden into glass petrifying the wood treated and is effective whether applied on surfaces which will be above or below grade.
CretoWood will not permanently alter the texture of the natural wood to which it is applied.
CretoWood provides a prepared surface 300% more effective than wood in the bonding of varnish, stains, paint and mastics.
