Hi there I’m looking into using this on a woodland playground. So I need to know if it’s toxic to animals/ plants and it’s safe to use around kids equipment? Also would it be ok to use outside.

This product has not been tested as animal/ plant safe so unfortunately we cannot confirm this.

Could you tell me how any square meters 5L will cover please.

The product will protect 20m² of timber per 5lt.

We are required by building regulations to use this to coat external wood cladding on the side of our house. The wood is European oak. The new oak is a yellow colour when first put up, but it turns to silver after a year or so. Will this solution stop this natural fading or will the wood continue to do this? We want it to turn to silver! Thanks.

Hydron Nu-Flame Clear Impregnation offers protection against the spread of fire but not protection against UV so it will not prevent the natural silvering of the timber.

Will Class 0 Certification be maintained if product is applied to new timber and then overcoated with a water based stain such as 'Ronseal One Coat'?

The product data sheet states; Over-coating: Any treated timber which is to be over-coated with a varnish, stain or paint should be tested for adhesion and compatibility purposes prior to fully over-coating. It is advisable to overcoat with water based or acrylic decorative paint finishes to ensure that the fire retardant properties are not compromised.

Please can you advise if this has been tested re: class 0 surface spread of flame and if so, where cam i download the certification?

Hydron Nu-Flame Clear Impregnation has been tested to achieve Class 0 surface spread of flame on both interior and exterior timber. A certificate of supply can be requested following purchase and application but if you require any testing information prior to any purchase this would need to be requested from the manufacturer directly.

Is this product compatible with Sadoline extra wood stain and berrettine used as an overcoat ?(https://www.google.com/shopping/product/17066715910191917418/image?hl=en-GB&ie=UTF-8&q=sadoline+extra&gws_rd=ssl&prds=cid:17066715910191917418,sgro:iv,cs:1&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj2-MCr2IXfAhVKBMAKHTnDAHwQ-K4BegUIDxCkAQ) or berrettine (https://www.google.com/search?q=barrettine&hl=en-GB&source=android-browser&prmd=smivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwirhoXm2YXfAhXoIcAKHV6lBocQ_AUoA3oECBYQAw&biw=360&bih=525#imgrc=M-fpWqFCkQLr_M:&isa=y) .

Always difficult to determine the overcoating effect; Sadolin in wet form White Spirit & Naptha based, not a good start Barrettine in wet form Oil / Solvent / Spirit based, again not a good start White Spirit & Naptha will logically at some stage evaporate off, leaving whatever it is carried in Oil could theoretically remain indefinitely re-contributing to overall flammability Plus of course the compatibility issues between an oil based & water based products, causing all sorts of problems, including blooming. There are more compatible finishes available, generally the water based finishes are better suited.

ColourPicker Explained

In general we sort colours for products into 2 main groups - ‘Ready Mixed’ and ‘Tinted’.
Tinted colours will always be more expensive than Ready Mixed colours as they need to be produced at the time of order using a tinting machine dispensing colourant into a base*.
During busy periods, this means that tinted colours could take longer, for example – a ready mixed colour ordered on a 3-5 day delivery might arrive within 3 days, however a tinted colour might take the full 5 days to arrive.

To find Ready Mixed colours, search "ready mixed" or select the Ready Mixed 'colour chart'. To see Tinted colours select a colour chart such as RAL, BS, NCS, etc. or search for a colour/hue to see available or related options.

To ensure fair pricing, we split colours into ‘Price Bands’ to group together similar priced colours. If you wish to search for the cheapest tinted colours, always select Price Band 1.

We make every effort to list all available colours, however we also offer a colour match service which can be accessed by contacting our Technical Team on 0113 245 5450 (option 2) or emailing [email protected]

*Colours are sold in the nearest tin size but actual paint volume per tin may vary up to 10% depending on colour
