  • New Timbermate Wood Filler and Wood Repair Putty is a water based product that is not prone to cracking, shrinking, sinking or falling out like many water based fillers:
    • Fills cracks, holes and gouges.
    • Dries hard and smooth in about 30 minutes.
    • Sands easily.
    • May be stained when dry or just add stain. Other fillers have trouble accepting stain.
    • Compatible with Wood-Solv™ and LamantorPlus™ finishes.
    • Non-flammable, indefinite shelf life.
    • If Timbermate dries out, just add water so there’s never any waste.
    • Other wood-fillers are solvent, latex, or acrylic based and they tend to shrink or crack.
  • New, Improved Double-Concentration Phase I™ Water-Soluble Odor Control Concentrate
    Phase I Water-Soluble Odor Control Concentrate
       Phase I solves the usual odor problems with so little effort. By simply adding one ounce of mint-fragrance Phase I per gallon of cleaning solution, those everyday odors are whisked away with the recovered water in your extraction machine.
       Phase I is a high-potency, super-concentrated, water-soluble deodorizer that eliminates very offensive odors by complex chemical interaction. It is NOT a mask for undesirable odors and does not in any way dull the sense of smell.
       Phase I will effectively control the source of most common odors.
       Phase I is an aqueous concentrate of emulsifiers, fast-acting glycols, liquifiers, couplers, perfume, dual-deodorizing system, and a quaternary ammonium chloride (a known germicide) at DOUBLE the concentration of the previous formulation.
    Not for use on stain-resistant nylon carpet.
    Use Concentration: 1 to 2 ounces per gallon cleaning solution.
    Use pH: 7
  • New, Improved Double-Concentration Phase II™ Solvent-Based Odor Control Concentrate Phase 2 Odor Control Concentrate
       For those more difficult problems such as smoke, urine, vomit, perspiration, medicines, and rancid food oils, we recommend Phase II.
       Phase ll is a solution of solvents, fast-acting glycols, liquifiers, couplers, perfume, dual-deodorizing system, and quaternary ammonium chloride (a known germicide) at double the concentration of the previous formulation.
       Phase II is a high-potency ready-to-use deodorizer that eliminates extraordinarily offensive odors by complex chemical interaction. It is not a cover-up or a masking agent. Phase II kills animal odors, human and pet "accident" odors, smoke damage odors, kitchen odors, musty odors and mildew odors.
       Phase II can be applied through a Viton sprayer, atomizer for cold fog application, or injected with an injection needle. Do not add Phase II to the solution tank or dilute it with water.
    Not for use on stain-resistant nylon carpet.
    Use Concentration: Undiluted.
    Use pH: 6 - 7
