Timco Finishing Nails FAQs
Can Timco finishing nails be used outdoors?
While primarily designed for interior use, if using outside, ensure they are galvanised or stainless steel to resist corrosion.

Use a nail punch to drive the nails slightly below the surface, then cover with a matching wood filler for a professional look.
Are these nails compatible with all nail guns?
Check the gauge and length compatibility with your nail gun. Most finishing nailers will accept Timco nails, but always confirm fit first.
