Comparison of store-bought and homemade antiseptics

A weak solution of sodium fluoride is used to impregnate wooden surfaces of household structures. Its content is from 0.5 to 4% (from 50 to 400 g per 10 l of water), depending on the purpose of the structure. Less concentrated mixtures are sufficient for indoor use, while saturated solutions are best used outdoors (gazebos, benches). To visually control the completeness of application, 10 g of potassium permanganate (manganese) are added to the resulting solution. The intense color will not be durable and will disappear soon after the surface is coated. The solution should be applied with a sprayer or a wide brush;
Sulfate mixtures with a target component content of 10-20% (1-2 kg per 10 l of water) are used to treat pillars and structures buried in the ground. Such compositions require particularly careful drying and a long soaking time to improve the effect of application. The quality of the antiseptic application is controlled by the degree ofhungary mobile database coloring of the product, which is facilitated by the rich color of the copper sulfate solution. The parts of the wood that will subsequently be exposed to negative external influences are soaked in the resulting preparation.
To prepare the water mixture, you will need a source of hot water, a container for preparation, and a spatula for mixing. Using the solution after settling allows you to load it into the sprayer, improving the uniformity of the coating and reducing the consumption of reagents. The impregnation can be applied immediately after cooling. Solutions can be stored for several days until suitable weather conditions are established.

Preparation of water solutions can be done at home or outdoors. At home, you need to be especially careful not to spill excess solution on things or in hard-to-reach cracks. The total time for preparing the antiseptic rarely takes more than an hour.

To avoid errors in dosing components, study the characteristics of the wood you are going to process. There are complex approaches to processing, including cutting off a layer of wood and varnishing the surface impregnated with salts.

Advantages of a DIY solution:

lower cost;
high efficiency in case of bitumen or oil composition;
lower toxicity;
minimal probability of purchasing counterfeit products.
