For centuries, pine tar has been used outdoors to protect wooden roofs, shingles, gates, etc. At certain times, house facades have also been coated with pine tar. Pine tar has also been used for driving tools and for the surface treatment of outdoor forging.

Properties: Protects wood against erosion and leaching. Penetrates into the wood. Water repellent. Non-toxic natural material. Temperature sensitive – sticks at high temperature. Can only be painted over with paints containing pine tar. “Once tar, always tar”.

Suitable for: New wood surfaces, planed and unplaned. Old tarred wooden surfaces. Forging.

Color: Transparent yellowish brown. Can be broken into other colors. Gives a matte surface with a nice luster.

Consumption: One liter is enough for 1 sqm on a highly absorbent surface, when re-tarring to 2-6 sqm.

Durability: 5-20 years. A south side needs to be re-tarred more often than a north side. A new tarred surface should be retarred annually until the surface is formed.

Thinning: Thinning can also be done by heating in a water bath to 30-50 degrees.

Tools: Brush with stiff bristles.

Drying time: Never really dries. However, it gets a dry surface when it is cold outside, but becomes soft again when the sun warms.

Storage: Unlimited storage time. Withstands freezing temperatures.

Brush washing: Brushes are washed in turpentine. Hands are cleaned with linseed oil soap, butter or other fat that dissolves tar.
