Please Read First!

• CretoWood is a onetime application that must be applied to new or unfinished wood. If you already have a coating it must be removed before applying CretoWood.
• CretoWood is intended to prevent internal rot and decay. It will not stop the Sun's UV rays from discoloring the wood. You will need to clean and treat your wood with a tinted stain/seal on a regular basis if you want to prevent the wood from turning gray.
• The benefit to this product is it is a onetime application that will petrify your wood, preventing rot and decay.
• CretoWood will not hinder any top stain/sealers from properly penetrating the wood. It will not create a film on top of the wood. When moisture is an issue below/under the wood, CretoWood will help your top coat/stain in performance by not allowing the moisture to repel the top coat/stain.
• CretoWood is not intended to "bead" water.
• Do not use this product on Hardwoods such as: Teak, IPE, Ironwood, Mahogany

As Permanent as the Pyramid
CretoWood was developed to permanently harden wood products. CretoWood is water based, non-toxic and non-flammable.

The proprietary catalyst in CretoWood allows it to penetrate through the layers of cells in the wood, where CretoWood reacts with both the acids and the alkali present in the individual cells of most woods forming an aero silica gel membrane on the surfaces of the cell walls.

This membrane forms an internal seal and barrier against water and other causes of deterioration.

Over the 6 to 12 months following application, the aero silica gel membrane formed will hydrate and harden into glass petrifying the wood treated and is effective whether applied on surfaces which will be above or below grade.

CretoWood will not permanently alter the color, texture, or any other physical characteristic of the natural wood to which it is applied.
