USE ON RAW WOOD
- The wood must be clean and dry, free of dust, oily residues or products that can limit adhesion.
- Sand the surface using 150–180-grit sandpaper and remove the sawdust.
- Mix the product thoroughly and apply it with a brush (with synthetic bristles).
- Within 1-2 hours, the second coat of product can be applied without sanding. After 2 hours, it is necessary to sand with 280-320 grit sandpaper to improve adhesion between coats.

USE ON PREVIOUSLY FINISHED WOOD
- Sand with 100–120-grit sandpaper until the existing coating is completely removed.
- Proceed as stated above for use on raw wood.

ICA RECOMMENDS
- For a better aesthetic effect, rusticate the raw wood with a brush with iron bristles.

How to create a metallic effect on your wooden shed

Do you want to give a metallic effect to your wooden shed? Great choice! Follow this brief guide to get the most out of ICA's IMV series. The metallic pigments of these water-based impregnating agents will protect the surface against UV rays, besides giving it a more elegant look.

Instructions
Step 1

Start by sanding your wooden shed with a 150/180 grit sandpaper. Make sure to wipe off any dirt, residue and resin between one board and another with a dusting brush and a dry cotton or microfiber cloth. 

Step 2

Now you need to use the IMV impregnating agent! This product, available in different colors, from gray to brown, protects well the wood surface, penetrating into its pores. Our tip: when opening the can, mix the product well for at least one minute to reduce its high density.

Step 3

The application of the IMV wax-like metallic water-based impregnating agent is a key step. Follow the wood grains along the boards, paying special attention to hidden parts and intersections. Once applied the first coat, wait at least 1-2 hours before proceeding with the second coat.


More information
Thanks to the zero-waste edge technology of their packaging, which allows to use 100% of the product, ICA for You products are at your side. Do you have any doubts about which type of brush to choose? For the best application choose a large flat brush with synthetic bristles. IMV water-based impregnating agent is the ideal solution to obtain an aged and original effect!

I used metallic water-based wood stain and sealer with wax finish for exteriors and interiors, ash gray IMV01-0075b, for a lounge area in wood board recovered from pallets. I spray-applied the product... the end result is great and the color is beautiful! #furnishings #garden furniture #exterior #metallic
