How To Use Capture Log Stain • Bare Wood/New Construction: Apply 1 coat of Capture and 1 coat of Cascade for the normal build. Be sure to allow each coat to dry at least 8 hours before applying the next coat. • Maintenance Coat: Capture will need a maintenance coat after several years. Do not allow Capture to weather down to bare wood. Instead, Capture is ready for a maintenance coat once it has lost its sheen and starts looking dull. At this point, first clean the logs to remove dirt and mold. Once the surface is clean, in most cases one coat of Capture will be sufficient. Sashco Capture Coverage Rate • 1st coat: 150-250 sq. ft. per gallon. • 2nd coat: 250-350 sq. ft. per gallon.• As with all stains, coverage will vary depending upon roughness and porosity of the wood. Tint Cartridge Sizing• Use one full 10.5 oz. cartridge for every 5-gallon pail of Sashco’s Capture neutral base.• Do not dilute the tint pack. Using less tint will diminish overall stain durability and performance. Capture Flex Tint Mixing Instructions1) Remove peel & stick color label from cartridge. Apply to 5 gal. pail next to the lot #/UPC label near the pail lid.2) Remove lid from 5 gal. pail of Capture Log Stain neutral base.3) Cut cartridge nub with Exacto knife or cigar cutter.4) Insert cartridge into standard caulking gun. Engage plunger until just secure in the gun.5) Gun out product. Empty the entire contents of the cartridge into a 5 gal. pail of Capture Log Stain neutral base. When empty, a small amount of the tint will remain at the very top of the cartridge. The cartridge is filled with a little extra so final color is not affected.6) Mix thoroughly using a drill-driven paint mixer for 5 to 7 minutes. Tint should be evenly distributed and no solids left in the bottom of the pail. There should be no streaks or milkiness.7) Mix stain periodically throughout application. Turn the drill on for a few seconds every 20-30 minutes to ensure tint remains evenly distributed and doesn’t settle to the bottom. Cleanup and Storage:• While still wet, clean tools and equipment with soap and water. Discard empty containers in the trash.• To avoid dislodging cartridge plunger, do not crush. Follow pail storage instructions for mixed stain. Do not dilute tint.
