Xyladecor Terrasbeits Antislip

Xyladecor Terrasbeits Antislip - Protective Wood Stain

Description

A wooden deck can become treacherously slippery during rain or damp weather. Xyladecor Terrasbeits Antislip solves this problem thanks to a special, invisible anti-slip grain in the formula. This grain provides extra grip without changing the texture or appearance of the wood. This stain is transparent (available in wood tones) and matte, ensuring the wood grain remains beautifully visible while the wood is protected against all weather conditions.

In addition to the safety benefits, this stain also offers excellent resistance to weather conditions and UV rays. This slows down the natural graying of the wood and keeps your deck in top condition for longer. The water-based formula is virtually odorless, dries quickly, and is very easy to apply, making it the ideal choice for your wooden deck that needs refreshing or protection.

Also an excellent choice for outdoor wooden stairs, as you'd rather not slip there either.

Frequently Asked Questions

For which projects can I use Xyladecor Terrasbeits Antislip?

This stain is specifically developed for horizontal outdoor wooden surfaces, such as decks and walkways. It is suitable for most common hardwoods and softwoods. For vertical surfaces such as fences or garden sheds, we recommend other Xyladecor products .

How many layers of anti-slip stain do I need for a good result?

For optimal protection and an even result, we recommend applying 2 layers to new or untreated wood. For maintenance of an already treated layer, 1 refresh layer is usually sufficient, provided the substrate is still in good condition.

What is the best way to apply this anti-slip stain?

Ensure the deck is clean, dry, and free of grease. In this deck staining step-by-step plan we go deeper into the preparation. Stir the stain very well before and during use, so the anti-slip grains remain evenly distributed. Apply the stain generously with a flat brush in the direction of the wood grain for the best penetration.

Which colors are available for deck wood?

Xyladecor Terrasbeits Antislip is available in popular, natural shades such as Natural, Teak, and Anthracite. Because the stain is transparent, the final color will always be influenced by the original color of the wood species. The Natural color is therefore the most true-to-life shade Xyladecor offers for this product, but it is not a "clear varnish" or completely colorless product. It gives the wood a slight tint, which is necessary to deliver the promised protection against graying.

Why choose Xyladecor Terrasbeits Antislip instead of Terrasolie?

Stain is the "stronger variant" for your deck, especially for softwoods that are extra vulnerable to weather conditions. While an oil mainly focuses on nourishment and aesthetics, this stain offers a superior shield against UV radiation and rain. Furthermore, the unique anti-slip finish provides safety that simply isn't achievable with a standard oil.
However, when you have a deck consisting of hardwoods like bangkirai or teak, traditionally Terrasolie is chosen. But you can also apply this stain to these after sanding the substrate. If you choose this anti-slip stain, you will need to re-treat your wooden deck less frequently than with a deck oil (Terrasolie).

How long does this deck stain retain its anti-slip function?

This Xyladecor Terrasbeits Antislip itself continues to protect against rain and sun for at least 3 years. The anti-slip function, on the other hand, may wear down sooner with heavy foot traffic and intensive rainfall. If you want a continuous anti-slip function, it is best to check the surface sooner.
