THIS ISNOORDINARY WOODFINISH

A new chemical formulation has permitted the development of a transparent wood finish by Penofin which will preserve and enhance the natural grain and beauty of wood while protecting and s€aling it from the destructive forces of our environment.

The linseed oil based formulas that are still prevalent in the industry today date back to 17th Century Europe. These archaic mixtures were long overdue for a change in our technological world of science and chemistry.

UV Proteclion

A remarkable combination of Brazilian Rosewood Oil, transoxide pigments (strategic metals ground to microscopic size), a leadless dual catalytic system and a mildewcide build an effective transparent finish that filters more than 90 percent of the sun's ultraviolet rays.

Penotin's Oulstanding Fealures

Penofin seals the wood and creat€s a microoorous finish that allows moisture to enter and exit only as a vapor. This prevents rapid expansion and contraction of the wood, which is one of the major reasons for warping, twisting and cracking.

Penotin dries quickly dust free and can be applied to fresh, green wood. Penofin seals the nails and prevents them from bleeding.

Penofin does not contain pentachlorophenol or any carcinogens.

Penof in has available special exterior transparent finishes for redwood, cedar and other sott woods. Penofin also offers an interior line for hardwoods and a durable Marine product for the boating industry.

Whatever your wood finishing needs are...Penof in will keep your wood f resh and bright.
