## Description

Product Description Wolman WOODLIFE CopperCoat Green Wood Preservative provides a multi-purpose, EPA registered insecticidal preservative for exterior untreated or pressure-treated wood in below ground, ground contact, fresh water contact or above ground installations. Paintable and stainable wood treatment is ready to use and preserves wood against termites, beetles and ants. Protects against infestation of wood destroying organisms including subterranean termites, drywood termites, wood destroying beetles, powderpost beetles, carpenter ants and decay fungi. Apply by dip, roller or brush on lumber, end cuts, timber, rail ties, posts, poles, freeway fencing, siding, boats, piers, docks, boxes, roofs, shakes, cedar shake roofs, shingles, porches, steps, fences, rails and beverage cases. From the Manufacturer Use on below-ground, ground contact or water contact wood installations (especially non-pressure-treated lumber) to protect the structural integrity. Prevents termite and other insect attack, mold, mildew and other fungi attack, and dimensional change caused by water absorption.

Review: Follow directions - So far so good. Easy to apply. Very low viscosity so it goes on like water. In the attached picture, I did the edges first and then went back to start at the top. You can see the different color where it was applied, but that was while It was wet. Looking forward to my ramp, lasting for years and years.
Review: Excellent exterior wood preservative - This is my favorite product for preserving wood exposed to weather. It is very effective and worth its price. Basically, it is topically applied pressure tested chemicals, that can make untreated wood resist rot and insects damage. In addition to the chemicals, it seals the wood surface and "plugs" end cuts so it doesn't wick water inside. It has a strong smell and green color, but these vanish over time. When dry, it can be sealed with an oil based primer to lock in the color to paint over with light colors. The can arrived securely taped - no clips, like described in other reviews. I applied it liberally with a 2in chip brush Note that this a "stronger" version than the clear one. The clear one is only for above ground uses, whereas the green product can preserve wood below ground (like posts) when used properly. I only use the green one, even above ground

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can any one tell me what percentage is "Copper Naphtehnate"?**
A: Two quotes from the can:

"Copper Naphthenate (CAS No. 1338-02-9) ... 9.1%*"
"* Equivalent to 1% metallic copper"

**Q: Is this product approved for treatment in vegetable greenhouses?**
A: person below is WRONG (or at least, wrong for the reason they give: ) I just got off the phone with rustoleum and point blank asked them: I want to use this on lumber to build a raised bed garden. is this safe? he said absolutely. the copper based ingredient does not leach into soil or into the root system of plants. he said the only thing they recommend against is treating it in wood that woul then be submerged in drinking water, and I would suspect that is just an abundance of caution. but for greenhouses or raised bed gardens, he said there is no concern at all. an answerer to another question posted this helpful pdf that looks like the product insert sheet http://www.homedepot.com/catalog/pdfImages/6c/6c4778d3-b6fe-4468-944b-80c038ab71e7.pdf and in there it also , among the list of uses, says "planters". I know in this day and age of heightened concerns of "pure" and "natural" etc there will be people like the below answerer who will kneejerk react and say "no way, chemicals!1!!1!" but people, come on. I guess, if you want to go all natural, then weave yourself a wicker basket and tend to it weekly. if you want wood that wont rot that you can plant food next to, use this and dont freak out.

**Q: What can be used as a dipping container?**
A: Yeah I don’t see why not. Be careful not to drip it all over though because it’s very odorous.

**Q: How long does a coat of this last?**
A: This is intended to give cut pressure treated lumber and, I suppose, non-pressure treated lumber, some of the protection of copper compounds used in pressure treating lumber intended for use below ground. It is intended to be buried, as it is in my application, so is not subject to inspection or practical reapplication.  I use it to allow PT lumber to reach its life expectancy. My longest experience with the product to date is 5 years and counting. To me it is not so much how long it lasts as that I know untreated lumber in ground contact will be vulnerable to insects and rot.
