cle times and productivity in shops of

customers more choices to address their
requirements.”

pound) epoxy primers, F4921WH and

Cabot Woodcare Launches
Cabot Gold
Cabot Woodcare is launching a new
luxurious finish, Cabot Gold. The new
product will be available at home improvement retailers beginning this spring.
Perfect for decks and outdoor furni-
ture, Cabot Gold mimics the appearance
of interior hardwood floors outdoors for
a luxurious look through two coats, the
company stated. The first coat penetrates,
while the second coat adds dimension as
it seals, to protect against UV sun dam-
age, extreme temperatures and rain and
moisture.
Designed to withstand time, Cabot
Gold is applied in three steps.
• Bring to Bare: Remove all existing
stain, paint or sealer. Then clean and
sand the bare wood so Cabot Gold
can penetrate properly and seal
beautifully.
• Apply Two Coats: Let the first coat
dry at least 24 hours before applying
the second coat. Let dry for three days
before returning furniture to a deck.
• Celebrate the Beauty: Applied properly, Cabot Gold will wear gracefully
without peeling.
Cabot Gold is available in four different stain colors and can be used on both
cedar and pine. Stain colors include Sun-Drenched Oak, Sunlit Walnut, Fireside
Cherry and Moonlight Mahogany. The
product is available at Home Centers and
Independent Paint and Hardware Stores
in spring 2016.

solvents,” she said. “With the innovative
HOBA Purair internal powder liner, PPG
offers a high-performance sustainable
solution that helps maximize product
utilization while minimizing environ-
mental impact.”
