Based on a stain formula that was originally created for the extreme conditions that logs undergo, Transformation Stain Siding & Trim is no stranger to high performance. It moves and flexes with the wood to maintain a protective coat that remains beautiful over time. It’s about Transformation: Old and weathered wood siding brought to life again, or trim stained with color to create the perfect accent. These are the results stain was made for, yet rarely do we observe this in the real world. We see our neighbor’s stain peeling or are reluctant to repair our own siding due to its “big project” nature and the hefty price tag. Contrary to common wisdom, having a great quality stain is only half the battle. The other half is what is neglected the most: routine maintenance. Over time, routine maintenance is truly the key to easy and inexpensive staining. When applied correctly and maintained every 3-4 years, you can be assured that Sashco Transformation Stain Siding & Trim won’t peel. This eliminates the time and expense of sanding the surface before applying a maintenance coat. Simply do a light power wash, allow the wood to dry and apply another coat. It’s that easy, and you’ll find that your “big project” wasn’t so big after all. Use a quality stain like Sashco Transformation Siding & Trim and you’ll transform the look of your wood. Practice routine maintenance and you’ll discover a better way to stain.

Transformation Siding & Trim Application Instructions • Apply Transformation when the surface temperature is 40°F (4°C) and rising to 90°F (32°C) and falling. • In severe conditions (under 40°F (4°C) and/or 70%+ humidity), full rain resistance may take longer. • Plan to stain when the forecast is predicting clear, rain-free weather that will extend 1-2 days after the stain has been applied so the stain can dry properly. • Cover surfaces with plastic if rainfall or snowfall is expected within 24 hours after application. • Dries to the touch in 30 minutes or less in ideal weather. • Allow stain to dry a full 24 hours before walking on deck. Refrain from heavy foot traffic until stain is no longer tacky (approx. 2-5 days, depending on temperature and humidity). • Thoroughly mix the stain. The preferred method is to use a drill-driven, squirrel-cage type mixer. • Stirring the stain every 10-15 minutes throughout application to keep the pigments evenly distributed throughout the stain. • Spray on one heavy coat of Transformation Siding & Trim. If only a brush is used, be sure to drench-apply the stain to ensure adequate coverage. • Vigorously back brush the stain, pushing it into the wood, catching any drips. This promotes the best adhesion and penetration, and leaves an even, consistent coat of stain. • Do not apply to surfaces in direct intense sunlight and work in sections to avoid lap marks. • Clean up: While still wet, clean tools and equipment with water. Once dry, mineral spirits will be required on tools and equipment. Use citrus-based hand cleaners for any product that dries on skin. • Storage: Tightly reseal opened containers and store at temperatures between 50°F and 90°F (10°C - 32°C).
