SICO PROLUXE

​​Is Sikkens and Sico the same?

Yes! In 2013, PPG attained the rights for Sikkens stains in North America. In the USA, it is marketed as PPG Proluxe; In Canada, the branding changed to Sico Proluxe. The Sikkens name is no longer on the cans, but you can be assured that it's the same trusted product.

Area Prep:​

All wood surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of dirt, grease, grime, mildew, mill glaze, and previous coatings before application. Spray all wood surfaces with clean water, thoroughly wetting the wood. Apply a cleaning solution of four ounces of 100% powdered Tri-Sodium Phosphate (TSP) or phosphate-free substitute with one quart of liquid bleach and three quarts of water to the wood surfaces with a garden sprayer or a heavy nap roller cover. Scrub the surface with a hard bristle brush for 15-20 minutes to help remove mill glaze or weathering. Do not allow the solution to dry on the wood surface. Power wash the wood surface clean with fresh water using 500- 800 psi with the nozzle 8-12 inches away to remove the cleaning solution. Allow the surface to dry for 48 hours, or to have a moisture content of 18% or less before application. Sand all cleaned wood using 80-120 grit sandpaper for vertical surfaces and 60-80 grit sandpaper for horizontal surfaces. Always sand in the direction of the wood grain and remove sanding dust. Finish should be applied within one week of preparation for horizontal surfaces (decks) and four weeks for vertical surfaces (siding), provided that the surface remains free of dirt, grease, grim and mildew. â€‹
