Scrape off surface tar carefully. If wax layers are present, strip first with Lithofin WAX-OFF. Apply Lithofin OIL-EX as a thick poultice, cover with cling film, and leave overnight. Remove, scrub with Lithofin WEXA, and rinse. Re-seal with Lithofin TC Impregnator after complete drying.
Expert tips
- Cotto is highly porous and tar can penetrate deeply
- Multiple treatments may be required
- Old wax layers may trap tar residue underneath
