¹Spread rates are based upon properly sanded wood applied with a buffing machine. Spread rates can be lower if a trowel is used for application, and significantly lower if hand-applied with a cloth or rag. Porous or “punky” woods (e.g.: reclaimed, soft, porous, barn wood, rough-sawn, dry wood, etc.) will reduce spread rates.
