Acclaimed British woodcare specialist Fiddes have expanded their range with the launch of their new water-based stain-blocking primer “Full Stop H2O”.
Although they’re probably best-known for their range of superior woodcare products, especially the ever-popular Hard Wax Oil, Fiddes already have a presence in the primer market with their Full Stop Stain Block. The original Full Stop is a fast-drying white shellac-based primer, ideal for covering stains on interior surfaces including new and previously painted wood, plaster, metals, glass and tiles. New Full Stop H2O offers many of the same benefits, but in a water-based formulation.
The many advantages of using this new product include:
- Permanently blocks most stains and odours in just one coat
- Penetrates and seals porous surfaces
- High adhesion primer which accepts oil- acrylic and water-based top coats
- Low VOC
- Water-based – easy clean-up with soap and water
- Anti-mould properties
- Suitable for interior and exterior use on surfaces including new and previously painted wood (two coats required on new wood), dry wall, plaster, existing paint and varnish, aluminium, glass and ceramic tiles.
- Seals knots
- Application by spray, brush or roller
- Fast-drying – recoat in 45 minutes
The product is not recommended for use on ferrous metals, floors, exterior decking or roofs.
A family-run and proudly British company, Fiddes started out in 1896 with founder Albert Fiddes selling paints and distempers in and around Bristol. At the end of the Second World War, the company relocated to a converted stable block in Cardiff, from where they expanded their product range to include shellac and wax polishes, wood dyes and oils.
Now in the 21st century, with four generations of the Fiddes family having been involved in its development, the company operates from a purpose-built manufacturing site (still in Cardiff). They strive to use the latest technology and finest raw materials to produce their range of sustainable products which are distributed around the world.
