Cuprinol 5330417 Wood Preserver - Clear - 1L

Goods arrived early, securely packed and as ordered.

This is the third time I’ve bought this, never disappointed and does a brilliant job. One thing to be aware of is the lid initially is very trciky to get off so be aware! Otherwise it’s brilliant, goes on well, covers nicely and gives a great level of protection. It is clear so barely if at all changes the colour of the wood

Purchased to protect a wooden planter. I have had this in the past and it had a green tint to it, but this time is clear - looked like water which is what it is made of probably. Painted two coats on the wood, leaving over 24 hours to dry between coats. I have yet to stain the wood but time will tell if it works! Main gripe - who ever invented the lid needs to rethink this. The tin came with a a strange yellow plastic cap with an illegible 'diagram/sketch' on it. I had no idea how to open the thing and resorted to the internet for instructions.... I managed to pull up a 'hook' of plastic but then could not actually do much else. After a lot of twisting and tugging I had to ask my husband to help. With absolute brute force he pulled the yellow cap off to reveal an inner ring pull arrangement which needed to be removed to get at the product. Again, this was nearly impossible and I had to resort to using a Stanley knife tip to break the seal and get it off. Then the pouring out was a mess - the spout (I use the word loosely) was recessed into the tin, so when tipping it to get the stuff out, it went everywhere and into the pouring bit. According to the internet instructions, it sounded like pulling the yellow top off should have pulled out the inner spout, which would have made pouring much easier. It looked as if the yellow top could be screwed on and off but when I screwed it back on until it 'clicked' I could not get the thing off again without more brute force and potential for the stuff to spill. (incidentally pulling on the ring pull cut into my fingers and I had to use a cloth to protect them. So, after finishing painting with it, I just screwed the cap on lightly, which I am sure is not correct. To sum up - good product, awful 'instructions' and rubbish tin design. Certainly child proof though...

Pay attention as to how to open can. Product is easy to use and does a good job

Did a great job on restoring old teak garden furniture, having been pressure washed, sanded and tidied up. Good as new and withstanding the weather,

Great product Delay with delivery was due to courier rather than the retailer

I have used cuprinol golden cedar wood preserver since 2008 on the last 3 times i have order from amazon the 1st and 3rd 1 litre tins as been poor to apply its very steaky when brushed on it does not flow when brushed ease you have to keep working with the brush very poor and hard work on application , the 2nd tin was great like all the others before nice even flow easy to apply and great finish, the same as when used 4 litre tins but cannot get this from local stockist any longer shame.

It’s a bitch to open but Cuprinol has a good name.
