wrinkling may occur. Discolouration from
knots may occur, especially on light colour fi-
nishes. Knots may be plugged or filled with a
suitable filler, but they will always be visible.
Other colour variations such as yellow lines/
surfaces may occur. Other irregularities such
as lumps of resin may also appear in the sur-
face treatment. The lumps may be randomly
spread out or situated along the wood grains.
The resin may also penetrate the coating
and form little droplets on the surface. After
a while, when the droplets have crystallised
on the surface, they can be lightly brushed
or scraped off without damaging the surface
treatment.
Wood elements with a high content of resin
may occur. In such cases, larger quantities of
resin may seep through. Production is car-
ried out industrially providing benefits such
as uniform, high quality and treatment of all
surfaces.
If nothing else has been agreed, glazing
beads, etc. have been mounted using a nail
gun whichmeans that the surface treatment
has been penetrated. For further advice on
maintenance, please consult the paint ma-
nufacturer.
For facades facing south that
are exposed to strong sunlight
and sea air or moisture from inside
the building maintenance intervals
should be adapted to the conditions.
