This 2.5L Urban Slate decking stain is a tough, water-based formula designed specifically for timber surfaces. It provides a rich, semi-transparent slate grey tint that allows the natural wood grain to remain visible beneath the finish. The product features a double-action formula containing invisible microbeads to increase surface traction. It is an ideal choice for homeowners or contractors who require a durable, weather-resistant coating that enhances both the appearance and safety of wooden structures.
This stain is suitable for a wide range of outdoor applications across the UK. You can use it on residential garden decks, timber patios, or low-level boardwalks to improve aesthetics and safety. Because it includes an integrated algaecide, it is particularly effective at preventing green algae and mould growth during damp British winters. Beyond domestic gardens, the slip-resistant properties make it appropriate for commercial walkways, raised platforms, and public outdoor spaces where foot traffic is frequent. It ensures surfaces remain safer underfoot even when the timber becomes wet.
Preparation is vital for a long-lasting finish. Ensure the timber surface is completely clean, dry, and free from old coatings before you begin. You must apply this stain using a brush only to ensure the invisible microbeads bond correctly to the wood grain. Do not use a roller, as this can interfere with the even distribution of the anti-slip particles. Allow sufficient drying time between coats depending on the ambient temperature to achieve a professional result.
This product is supplied in a single 2.5L tin which provides ample coverage for medium-sized decking projects. The Urban Slate colour offers a semi-transparent grey finish that protects timber from harsh weather elements. It features an integrated algaecide to combat mould and uses a water-based formula for easier application. The double-action formula includes invisible microbeads to provide essential slip resistance on various wooden surfaces.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use a roller to apply this stain?
No, you must apply this product using a brush only. Using a brush ensures that the invisible anti-slip microbeads are worked into the timber correctly, which is necessary for the safety of the finished surface.Will this stain hide the natural wood grain?
This is a semi-transparent stain rather than an opaque paint. While it adds a slate grey tint to the timber, the natural texture and grain of the wood will still show through the finish.How does the product handle wet weather?
The formula is weather-resistant and contains an algaecide to prevent green algae and mould growth. This helps maintain a clean surface and provides better traction during the frequent rain typical of the UK climate.How much area will a 2.5L tin cover?
Coverage depends entirely on the porosity and condition of your timber. You should always check the specific absorption rate of your wood to ensure you purchase enough volume for your entire decking area.
