Indigo Sleek Anti-Termite Solution – Anti-Termite Treatment for Wood

Indigo Sleek Anti-Termite Solution: Essential Wood Protection

Before you apply any polish, paint, or veneer, ensure your valuable wooden furniture is protected from its greatest threat: termites and borers. Indigo Sleek Anti-Termite Solution (Wood) is a ready-to-use, highly effective chemical treatment designed to penetrate deep into the wood fibers, creating a barrier that eliminates and prevents wood-boring insects. This odorless solution is the crucial first step for ensuring the longevity of new wardrobes, doors, windows, and any wood used in construction.

Using this wood preservative is an investment. It stops existing infestations and provides long-term protection, preventing the costly damage that termites and borers can inflict, thereby safeguarding your final finish, whether it’s Asian Paints PU or Indigo Melamine.

Why is Anti-Termite Treatment Critical?

Termites destroy wood from the inside out, making the damage invisible until it’s too late. Indigo Sleek Anti-Termite Solution (Wood) offers preventative benefits:

• Kills Existing Infestation: The active chemical composition targets and eliminates larvae and termites deep inside the wood.
• Long-Term Protection: Leaves a permanent residue within the wood that deters future termite and borer attacks.
• Deep Penetration: The low viscosity allows the solution to soak into the cellular structure of the wood, sealing off entry points.
• Odorless Application: Unlike older, kerosene-based treatments, this formula is virtually odorless, making it suitable for application inside residential spaces.

How to Apply Indigo Sleek Anti-Termite Solution

Application must be thorough to ensure maximum effectiveness:

1. Surface Prep: Ensure the wood is completely dry and free of any old polish, varnish, or paint. Sand the raw wood with 180-grit sandpaper.
2. Application: Apply a liberal, saturating coat of Indigo Sleek Anti-Termite Solution (Wood) using a brush or cotton rag. Ensure the cut edges and ends of the timber receive extra attention.
3. Swabbing/Dipping: For loose timber pieces, dipping or swabbing the wood is highly effective for full saturation.
4. Drying: Allow the treated wood to dry for at least 60 minutes before proceeding to the priming or sealing stage, such as applying Asian Paints NC Sanding Sealer.
