pressure treated wood before starting construction.
Did you know?
" Pressure treated wood may be
painted or stained to match any
outdoor color scheme.High-quality
latex-based paints and oil or latex
stains are recommended. Make sure
the wood is dry and free from surface
deposits before applying any coating.
" Water repellent coatings can be
applied to enhance the long-term
weathering performance.
" Only wood that is visibly clean and
free of surface residue should be used
for patios,decks and walkways.
" To help maximize surface protec-
tion and to keep your wood looking
better longer,GP recommends
applying a surface water repellent
every two years.

What is ACQ?
Q
Alkaline Copper Quaternary (ACQ) is a
A
chemical solution used as a preservative
treatment for wood to help provide long-
term protection from rot, decay and termites.
The main active ingredient in ACQ is copper,
which has long been established as the
most cost-effective preservative component
used in preserving timber. Quaternary acts
as the co-biocide in the ACQ preservative,
providing additional protection from decay,
fungi and termite attack that copper alone
would not control. Copper and quaternary
solutions similar to ACQ are used for the
control of fungi and bacteria in swimming
pools and spas.
