How much of our BORON product will you need for surface and injected Woodworm treatments?

Use 1 litre of Boron Boracol for every 4 to 5 square metres of surface, for each coat applied.

We recommend two light coats, to avoid missing patches and to ensure even coverage, without dripping.

One light coat is sufficient on smooth or planed timber.
