Protect Your Timber and Masonry Surfaces with Cotec Woodland Repel Stain Treatment

When it comes to protecting your exterior surfaces from moisture damage, Cotec Woodland Repel delivers the kind of performance you can count on. Whether you’re working with timber cladding or concrete, plaster, and masonry substrates, this water-based treatment creates a lasting barrier against water penetration, mould, and mildew.

Woodland Repel works differently than traditional surface coatings. Instead of just sitting on top, it penetrates deep into the material and forms strong chemical bonds within the fibres or pores. This creates a hydrophobic matrix that stops water from getting in while still allowing the material to breathe. The result is protection that lasts years, not months.

For timber cladding projects, Woodland Repel is available in a range of semi-transparent stain colours that enhance the natural grain while providing UV protection. The formula won’t peel or flake like conventional stains because it becomes part of the timber itself. For concrete, plaster, and masonry applications, the clear formula reduces capillary absorption without clogging pores or affecting the material’s ability to release moisture vapour.

This is an environmentally responsible choice too. The formula is VOC-free and water-based, so you’re not introducing harsh chemicals into your home or the environment. It’s easy to apply with a brush, roller, or spray, and it dries quickly so you can get the job done without waiting around.

What Makes Woodland Repel Different:

Deep Penetration Technology – Goes beneath the surface to bond with timber or masonry at a molecular level, providing protection that won’t wash away or wear off easily.

Breathable Protection – Prevents water from entering while allowing moisture vapour to escape, which is critical for preventing trapped moisture and material degradation.

Versatile Application – Works on both timber cladding and concrete/masonry surfaces, making it the right choice for mixed-material projects.

Eco-Friendly Formula – Zero VOCs and water-based, so it’s safer for you and better for the planet.

UV Resistance – Timber formulations include UV protection to slow down the natural weathering process and keep your wood looking better for longer.

Long-Lasting Performance – Requires reapplication every 2-3 years for timber, giving you years of protection with minimal maintenance.

Perfect For:

– Timber cladding on residential and commercial buildings
– Concrete walls and facades
– Plaster and render finishes
– Masonry substrates including brick and block
– New construction and restoration projects

Woodland Repel is designed for bare, unpainted surfaces and is not intended for use on sealed surfaces or as a clear coat over existing finishes. For timber, it’s not recommended for horizontal surfaces like decks where the surface can become slippery when wet. For concrete and masonry, proper surface preparation and curing time (minimum 28 days) are essential for optimal performance.

Whether you’re protecting a new build or restoring an older structure, Cotec Woodland Repel gives you professional-grade protection that’s built to last.
