FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

We’ve collected some of the most frequently asked questions about Wood Guard. Below are some of the most commonly asked questions about our product, application, and care and maintenance.

What types of wood can Armus Wood Guard be used on?

Armus Wood Guard is suitable for use on a wide range of wood types, including cedar, redwood, pine, oak, and more. The wood surface should be natural, unpainted and untreated prior to applying Wood Guard.

Is Armus Wood Guard effective in extreme weather conditions?

Yes, Armus Wood Guard is designed to provide protection against a wide range of weather conditions, including extreme heat, cold, and moisture. Its UV inhibitors help prevent sun damage, while its moisture-repellent properties protect against rain and humidity. However, in particularly harsh environments, more frequent reapplication may be necessary.

Can I use Armus Wood Guard on already damaged or rotten wood?

Armus Wood Guard is primarily a preventive and protective wood treatment. It is not designed to repair or restore already damaged or rotten wood. For damaged wood, you should consider appropriate repair or restoration methods before applying Wood Guard for future protection.

Is Wood Guard compatible with pressure-treated wood?

Armus Wood Guard can be used on pressure-treated wood, but it's essential to wait for the wood to dry adequately after the pressure treatment process before applying Armus Wood Guard. As pressure-treated wood is denser, additional coats of Wood Guard may be required.

How does Wood Guard work?

Armus Wood Guard works by penetrating deep into the wood's fibers, forming a protective barrier. This barrier repels moisture, and protects against oil while keeping wood looking natural. Protecting against water damage prevents warping and cupping and can prevent wood rot as well.

Can I apply Wood Guard indoors?

Yes, Armus Wood Guard can be used indoors on various wooden surfaces. It's suitable for protecting indoor wood furniture, cabinetry, and other wooden structures. Ensure proper ventilation during application and allow the treated wood to dry thoroughly before using the indoor space.

Will Wood Guard prevent sun-fading?

No, Armus Wood Guard does not prevent sun-fading. While it provides protection against a wide range of water-related damage, such as rot, warping and cupping, it does not have specific UV inhibitors to shield wood from the effects of UV rays. Your treated wood surfaces will still age beautifully and all the beautiful features of your wood surface like color and grain still shine through and will still age naturally without rot.

How often do I need to reapply Wood Guard?

The frequency of reapplication depends on factors such as the type of wood, exposure to the elements, and climate. In general, it is recommended to reapply Armus Wood Guard every 1-3 years for optimal protection. Inspect the wood periodically and reapply when necessary.
