Extra Information

The LD 85 is intended for the first work step when structuring wooden surfaces.
The steel wire brush removes softer wood fibres and helps reveal the harder grain structure.
For a smoother final finish, follow the texturing step with the correct intermediate or finishing brush where required.
Always test on a scrap piece of the same timber before working on the final surface.
Different wood species will produce different texture results depending on hardness, grain and feed speed.

Pro Tips

Work with the grain of the wood for the most natural and attractive textured finish.
Use light, even pressure and allow the brush to do the work; excessive pressure can create uneven marks.
Test the brushing depth on offcut timber first, especially when working with visible furniture or feature panels.
After the steel wire brushing step, remove dust thoroughly before applying stain, oil, wax or lacquer.
For a refined finish, use the correct follow-up brush or sanding step after the initial LD 85 texturing process.
