How much, and how long between coats
Coverage rates vary significantly between smooth and rough-sawn wood, and the recoat windows are not the same across the three lines. Get the numbers before you quote the job, not after.
Work out quantities →Painters, builders, architects and dealers get a phone number that reaches someone who has actually used the product, and the paperwork you need to specify it and support the job through inspection.
You do not all need the same thing from us, so start with the one that sounds like you.
Coverage rates vary significantly between smooth and rough-sawn wood, and the recoat windows are not the same across the three lines. Get the numbers before you quote the job, not after.
Work out quantities →Our sheets ask for 5 °C to 25 °C and around 50% relative humidity. If your window is tight or the elevation is large, pre-finished cladding means you are not waiting on the weather.
Architectural wood →VOC content, coating type, substrates and maintenance intervals, plus ready-to-edit specification wording for MasterFormat Section 09 93 00, Staining and Transparent Finishing.
Spec language →We are selective about where BRODA sits on a shelf, because it needs someone behind the counter who can answer a question about it. Tell us about your store and your market.
Enquire about dealership →Substrate, prep, previous coating, application, recoat timing. If you send a photo we will tell you what we would do with it.

Open technical →Pint samples, $10 each. Species and mill finish change the colour more than most people expect, so test on the actual boards.
Order samples →Coverage worked out per coat for decks, siding, fences and concrete, in metric or imperial, with the rough-sawn allowance built in.
Open calculator →Cladding, panelling and soffits factory finished before delivery through our sister company Crisp Wood Co, so the finish is applied under controlled conditions rather than on site.
