Question of the Week:
👉 How do I know if my topcoat is still working or if I need to replace it?
Answer:
We recommend checking your topcoat twice a year using the simple water bead test 💧🪵
Here’s how:
✔️ Spray each wall with water
✔️ Watch how the water reacts
If the water sheets off and the stain color DOESN’T change:
✅ Your clear topcoat is still there and doing its job.
If the stain darkens when water hits it:
⚠️ Your clear topcoat has started to weather off and water is making contact with the stain.
What to do next:
1️⃣ Wash the wall with Log Wash
2️⃣ Let it dry completely
3️⃣ Apply another coat of Advance topcoat
A quick test now can help prevent bigger maintenance later!
