Very pleased with product. Excellent value for money as it goes a long way. Also so easy to apply and no unpleasant odour. Drys quickly and super fast delivery. Thoroughly recommend this product.

Very easy to apply (I used a cheap spray gun) and goes into the wood very easily. Don't forget to vigorously shake the containers beforehand as the contents do settle out!

IT has the same consistency as water and soaks in to the wood easily. We applied to all surfaces of all wood components prior to assembly. Hopefully the effort will be rewarded with a rot free cabin for many years ! Would be nice to have the option of a 5L container but it does go a long way.

After ordering our log cabin I thought it a good idea to seal it so a phone call later to a very helpful lady we had the correct amount on its way .good stuff!!!

Very easy and quick to apply. Absorbed by the wood instantly.

we used the clear fluid and the only problem was remembering which piece had been coated as it dried quickly but had plenty of fluid so some had two coats.not a bad thing.

Quite a thin liquid... Covers we'll. time will tell if it does the job.. But looks good at the moment

Appears to be good, but obviously time will tell with this product

To be honest its a bit difficult to review this. It goes on like water and as I had it clear there is no real visible sign of it doing anything. However I trust Tuin so having spent a fair bit of money on the cabin I figured to spend a little bit more was worthwhile to help prolong its life and prevent damage.

This product is very easy to apply and should be, in my opinion, used every time.,

Easy to apply, but care needed to apply evenly. We used a cloth to wipe it on; easier than a brush. Photo shows two coats,
Tuin reply: Silver grey Fluid

For me the impregnating fluid was a must given the guidance from Tuin, so easy to apply and gives peace of mind before you apply the finishing preservers,
The initial delivery saw the container punctured, contacted Tuin next day and they immediately sent a replacement arriving next day, great to work with an excellent company ,

The Impregnation fluid is a super-easy to apply and dries very quickly. If I was purchasing again I would purchase a tinted variant as it was difficult to keep track of where it had been applied. Brushes were very easy to clean after use. All in all a great product.

Goes on really easily, no smell, gets into the corners :)

although it makes the inside a bit darker - I chose silver grey- its an attractive effect. Seems fine and glad I had it done as sweat to do in situ

Excellent value goes a lot further than you would think. Good coverage, quick drying, would recomend.

Really easy to apply just sinks in like it is water, only issue is keeping track of where you have painted. Time will tell if it works, but everything from Tuin has been good, so I assume this will do exactly what it is meant to do.

The impregnation fluid was ordered on line from Tuin arrived within a couple of days.
Very easy to apply brushed on, its as thin as water used the grey coloured one.
Excellent product

A bit messy due to it being so watery. 0.75ml has been enough to do the inside of a 3x3 cabin inc ceiling and underside the floor boards.

Went with Silver Grey but it ended up a bit darker than the example on the website and it's easy to see where you've put more on, like in the corners, it is quite dark. We have left it with no further treatment on the ceiling but gone over the internal walls with white Carefree and we like the effect.

Impregnation fluid
its a little expensive , but worth it generally to impregnate timber to a high standard. ive given my ,log cabin 2 coats on the outside and 1 coat on the inside . hopefully it will resist insects and fungal attack, so generally happy.

As was to be expected from Tuin the fluid arrived very swiftly from ordering. It was easy apply and made a good base for our Chloe cabin. Not the cheapest option but worth paying the extra! Very pleased!

Easy to use, dries very quickly, loved the grey shade that still lets the grain of the wood show through.
Mr. Stuart Barrington

This product is very easy to apply and gives peace of mind to protect against wood rot from damp, fungus, etc. Goes on clear, so you have to be methodical in your application... Other than that... Very happy I purchased this to treat my cabin.

Very good, covered the entire outer cabin with plenty to spare so will be using it on the floor and inside

Great product goes on well and the coverage Fine goes a long way
Sean Bere

Very easy to apply and coverage was pretty much as per the instructions. Used as an undercoat and treatment prior to painting and I'm sure it made painting easier.Only problem we had was it was difficult to remember where we had treated. Little masking tape help solve the problem.
Anyway

The impregnation fluid from Tuin is a lovely product. We bought the clear version since we liked the natural colour of the logs. My friend bought a wide brush since the fluid is not thick and he used a tray to pour it into before using the brush to apply it. It was easily done and with careful application he managed to thoroughly coat the interior walls of our 5m by 4 m cabin twice without any problem! We have the peace of mind that with this, our log cabin interior is securely guarded against the formation of damp spores and fungus, as well as rot. It does not cost a fortune and is a great investment that will go a long way to extend the life of a cabin and I highly recommend it. Money worth spent after having invested in any of Tuin's long lasting log cabins that add value, functional space, and beauty to a property.

I bought the clear fluid, it goes on very easy almost like water and dries very quickly. Doesn't stain or leave any residue on your hands but beware don't get any on your grass or plants as it will kill it.

This is like applying water it slighter makes the wood paler where it has been applied but you need to concentrate where you have brushed it on as not easy to see. On the new wood it really soaks up so we used much more than the recommended coverage and had to buy more. It seems to have done a good job so hopefully no rot in the future

Ordered 2 lots of Impregnation fluid as a base coat (inside and out) of a newly purchased Riina Log Cabin. The fluid is quite watery and is therefore easy to apply with a brush. Coverage is good and it seems to offer peace of mind, although at this early stage, hard to know if it actually works or not. That said, I have no reason to doubt the marketing information as so far I have had a very positive experience with all aspects of my purchases, from the quality of the product to customer service and overall advice offered on the website. First class!

The impregnating fluid is easy to use, it soaks into the wood quickly and goes a long way. I used mine just on the inside to hopefully protect against mould. As others have said, you need to be methodical in application as the product dries clear so it’s very hard to see what you’ve done.

Ordered this extra impregnating fluid along with some extra logs. Colour match is spot on. Tuin team processed order very quickly and kept me updated at at each stage of process. The customer service is second to none.

A great product from Tuin. Easy to apply and seems to spread well and looks good too.

Fast delivery of the impregnation fluid from Tuin. Easy to apply and can be stained and sealed over. Only time will tell if it has worked.
Had a problem with the colour I chose but the staff at Tuin were pleasant and replaced it straight away with no quibble. I would definitely recommend Tuin to anyone wanting or building their own cabin.

Easy to use, worked it in at the log ends & corner joints; also along the base bottom edge log. All of summerhouse done but for piece of mind get extra rather than recommended amount.

Used this for tor the flooring and interior

Does not leave any marks on the wood at all

The Impregnation liquid is really good, and I'm pleased I went to the "effort" of applying this to the inside of my cabin prior to full treatment. It's viscosity and colour is similar to water, goes on really easily and relatively fast to apply. Only thing I would say, is use a largish brush, and apply liberally- I was using a smaller brush initially and it was taking me ages! if you want to be safe in the knowledge that you've treated your cabin properly, don't hesitate and buy the proper stuff which this is. I'm going to use this on the cabin floor as well as the internal side roof and eventually outside prior to treatment as well. Only thing I would say is use it in a well lit environment as it can be hard to see what you've already done.

Great product coated all the logs before assembling the log cabin goes along way and is easy to use.
Mr. Steve Leaver

Seems like good stuff. Goes on easily, but you need to keep track of what you've done as it's clear! Time will tell if it does what it says, but I'm confident it will.

A clear and colourless product. It is very fluid and so very easy to apply but it is not easy to see which bits you have already done so pay attention. Make sure you wear rubber gloves and eye protection to guard against splashes from what is a hazardous material.

I bought this product to treat a new Klass log cabin I had purchased, it went on really well, very thin like water, I treated the cabin before I assembled it which made it much easier to use than trying to do it after building it.

Good stuff, easy to apply, you may need a little more than you think though.

The impregnation fluid was easy to apply and covered a surprisingly large surface.
Elizabeth Pigott

I have used the fluid and it as clear in colour. It was difficult to see what I had actually painted. The size was disappointing as it was much smaller than it appeared in the advert. I am not sure yet whether is has cured the mould, it will be next spring before we can be sure it has done its job. We also added extra ventilation to the cabin so this should help as well.

Good product used to protect my new log cabin. Applied very easily and spread well.

I read about impregnating fluid so decided to purchase some when I ordered my Gitte cabin. I made the mistake of not ordering enough as this fluid spreads like water and I didn't have enough to cover the whole of the inside of my build. I applied it from the ground up with a paint brush and it was like painting with water. Not thick or sticky worked fine.

Bought the impregnation fluid to treat our Log Cabin as we erected it. The Silver/grey fluid we bought weathered enough to see the natural beauty of the wood through the treatment. We shall let it stand over the winter before we paint it with a clear breathable mat varnish so as to give a weathered appearance. We are very pleased with Tuin; a reliable quality company. Enjoyed the experience.

Very easy to use and soaks quickly into the wood. I am using it for wood repairs to a conservatory. Too early to say how effective the product will be, only time will tell.

The impregnation fluid is very easy to spread as it has the same fluidity as water. Seemed to go a long way . I was able to cover the inside of a 5 x 3m Aiste cabin with 2.5l of the impregnation fluid. Time will tell if it is as good as it says it is.
Dr. Andrew Schofield

I'm not sure that painting on impregnation fluid is that effective but I figured it can't do any harm either. This goes on like water and goes a supprisingly long way. In inside and out of a 3x4m cabin.
