Description
Heavy-Duty Exterior Tannin Blocking & Moisture Shield
Benjamin Moore® Fresh Start® Deck & Siding Primer is the definitive solution for harsh exterior wood environments. Raw woods like Cedar, Redwood, and Cypress naturally exude brown staining fluids (tannins) when exposed to moisture. This specialty exterior primer creates an chemical lock that traps those wood extracts permanently within the primer film, keeping your final solid color stain or exterior paint clean and bright.
Best Used For:
• Exterior wood decks, boardwalks, porches, staircases, and wooden gates
• Western Red Cedar, Redwood, and Cypress wood sidings or shingles
• Weathered pressure-treated lumber showing deep checking and fiber gaps
• Perimeter wood fencing, wooden pergolas, custom gazebos, and outdoor structures
Key Benefits & Features:
• Severe Weather Flexibility: Acrylic-modified resins retain extreme elasticity after curing, expanding and contracting alongside seasonal weather spikes without cracking.
• Deep Grain Anchoring: Penetrates deep into dry, porous wood cells, preventing atmospheric driving rains from severing the coating’s bond.
• Uniform Base Profile: Evens out uneven wood absorption, allowing solid stains to go down smoothly in fewer layers.
