Online CPD Course:
Coating enhancement & maintenance of natural timber using transparent finishes

In this course Dulux will explore the need to coat exterior timber. By coating timber you protect it from moisture which improves the dimensional stability which reduces cracking, splitting etc. and which in turn increases the service life of the timber.

Transparent timber finishes are a challenging area of the decorative coating category; products are wide ranging and offer very different solutions. In this session, Dulux will have a quick look at the different type of coatings available with interactive tangible timber samples, plus time for discussion and questions and answers. The course covers:

Timber versus wood
Environmental sustainability
Volatile organic compounds
Water versus solvent based coatings
The impact of UV light
The difference between clear and transparent coatings
The difference between oils, stains and finishes for timber
The Intergrain exterior & interior product range
Maintenance requirements & project services support
