FX LumberGuard/FX LumberGuard XT prevents treated materials from sustaining combustion by penetrating the material and becoming part of its molecular structure, a protective barrier is created to protect the treated material from igniting. Once the treated material is subjected to an extreme heat source (flames, sparks or embers) the protective intumescent (charring) barrier is activated, the intumescent barrier (charring) prevents combustion of the treated material. FRCT's fire retardant coatings meets the standards of ASTM, NFPA, ULC, UL and UBC and was tested by independent nationally-recognized accredited third party labs in Canada and the United States.

Species like White Wood, SPF, Pine and Doug Fir are not rot resistant If you are using one these species that starts to rot or decay, retreating or maintenance of fire retardant will have to be done. Power washing or cleaning the material is required before retreating. A wood sealer or paint of some type should be used to protect the wood from rotting, we recommend using a non wax based wood sealer, waterproofing sealer, stain sealer or paint.
Natural rot resistant species of wood are cedar, redwood and oak these species should not require a sealer or top coat unless there is heavy traffic on the material (decking or porch).
