Standard Material Yield Specs & Guidance:

  • Smooth Planed Wood Coverage: Typically yields ~9-11 m²/L (350-420 ft²/gal) per coat.
  • Rough & Weathered Timber: Absorbency increases stain consumption by 20% to 35% (~6-8 m²/L).
  • Railing Calculation: Spindles and posts present 2.5x to 3x surface area relative to linear footprint.
  • Prep Wash & Sanitizer: 1 Litre of wood prep concentrate sanitizes approx 15m² - 20m² of deck timber prior to staining.
