Frequently Asked Questions

Is it harmful to use HEMEL Timbercare Aqua Impregnation products indoors?

There is no harm to health. Wood impregnated with the product must be completely dry before being installed indoors. If you are going to apply impregnation to the assembled wood, make sure that the application area is well ventilated to ensure complete drying.

Can I protect my wood by just applying HEMEL Timbercare Aqua Impregnation?

HEMEL Timbercare Aqua Impregnation product alone is not enough to protect your wood. HEMEL Timbercare Aqua is an impregnation material and your wood; It does not protect against mold, fungus, and infestation and does not protect against outdoor weather conditions. By applying breathable varnish, oil, or wood paints, you extend the life of your wood by protecting it against external weather conditions and sunlight (UV).

Which wood types is HEMEL Timbercare Aqua Impregnation used for impregnation?

Soft texture woods such as pine can be impregnated. Hardwoods such as Iroko and teak have both natural durability due to their dense texture and the product can't penetrate due to this dense texture. For this reason, hardwoods do not need to be impregnated.

Is there any point we should pay attention to in the usage areas of HEMEL Timbercare Aqua Impregnation?

• Hemel Timbercare Aqua Impregnation product is used only on soft texture woods above ground level that are not in contact with the soil. It is recommended to apply breathable varnish/paint or oil-based products to protect your wood against external weather conditions and sunlight after application.
• If it is a wood to be used at ground level or in contact with the soil, it must be treated in impregnation facilities with a vacuum pressure system to extend the life of the wood. (e.g. deck, flowerpot, vineyard stake)

Does the color of the wood change when I apply HEMEL Timbercare Aqua impregnation?

Although impregnation is a colorless product, there may be very little color difference compared to the tree genus.

Despite my application of HEMEL Timbercare Aqua impregnation, does the wood sound like a wolf? What should I do?

Such problems may occur if not enough impregnation is applied to all surfaces of the wood (front, back, and head parts) during impregnation application, or if the impregnation has not already reached the area where the Wolf is located. If there is paint on the surface, it is mistreated, re-impregnated and Hemel Timbercare Aqua is injected into the Wolf holes with a syringe to get rid of this problem.
