Elite Treated is Primed and Milled from Cox DuraPine Supreme (KDAT)
Dry Pressure Treated Lumber. KDAT (Kiln Dried After Treatment) minimizes
most shrinkage problems, and helps reduce warping, twisting, and
cupping.
All SIX sides of Elite Treated lumber are "encapsulated" with
Sherwin Williams Top Quality Oil-Based primer.
(End cuts must be primed prior to installation to minimize call
backs and warranty claims.)
Oil-based primers on wood products greatly increase the
durability of the substrate as recommended by the Forest Products
Laboratory and Southern Pine Council.
Oil-based primers are vapor barriers and will prevent absorption
of additional water into the board.
