T3-465403

An alfresco area that runs straight off the kitchen is where five random faces and an outdoor rating pay off together. The pale natural clear stain reads like blackbutt and holds its colour where a timber deck would silver off and want oiling every year. The satin texture is lightly textured, enough tooth for bare feet on a covered patio without catching the broom. Mix a few cartons as you go, since five faces is a moderate count. Boxes hold five planks at 200 x 1000 mm, 1.00 m2 per box and 20 kg. Glazed ceramic 9 to 9.5 mm, rated for outdoor use under cover.

• Can T3-465403 go in an alfresco area?

  Yes. T3-465403 is rated for outdoor use, so a covered alfresco, verandah or balcony can have a timber deck look that never needs oiling or re-staining.

• What grout joint should T3-465403 be laid with?

  T3-465403 is a curve-edge plank rather than a rectified one, so lay it with a 3 to 5 mm joint. That spacing takes up the small natural variation along the plank and reads like the gap between real boards.
