ThewoodFinish That Keeps Its Promise

PENOFIN@ transparent oil finishes are a unique and effective way to preserve and enhance the natural beauty of wood.

Special features:

MICROPOROUS FINISH AND SEALER

Allows wood to breathe. Moisture can enter and exit only as a vapor. This prevents rapid expansion and contraction of the wood, the major cause of warping, checking and cracking.

ULTRAVIOLET PROTECTION _

Microscopically ground strategic metals block 90 percent of the sun's ultraviolet rays which protects the wood from discoloration.

BRAZILIAN ROSEWOOD OIL _ rNis exotic tropical oil is the base of Penofin@. It is formulated with other quality ingredients to produce a deep penetrating oil that will not yellow or darken with age.

SAFE TO USEContains no known carcinogens nor pentachlorophenol.

The Wood Finish Line

Penofin@ offers a complete line of exterior and interior finishes. Formulations for redwood, cedar, pine, fir, oak and other species of wood are available in pints, quarts, l, 5, 30 and 55 gallon containers.

WEATHERBLASTER@

This potent wood cleaner restores the natural color to aged wood. WEATHERBLASTER@ is recommended for use prior to the application of Penofin@ when restoring old wood.
