Osmo UV-Protection-Oil Tints is a transparent, lightly pigmented and satin, natural oil based wood finish for exterior use. The microporous surface allows the wood to breathe and reduces swelling and shrinkage. The water-repellent surface will not crack, peel, flake or blister. As top coat on already colour treated wood, Osmo UV-Protection-Oil Tints prolongs the renovation intervals significantly. As a single product application, it blocks the greying process on vertical surfaces with a UV protection factor 12 in comparison to untreated wood when two coats are applied. Osmo UV-Protection-Oil Tints is furnished with active ingredients to protect the coating against mould, algae and fungal attack. Without sanding, simply recoat. Application is easy and seamless, and the finish stays workable while coating. Osmo UV-Protection-Oil Tints is ideal for all vertical wood surfaces in outdoor areas; doors, windows, window shutters (dimensionally stable elements), carports, timber cladding, balconies, fences, pergolas and summer houses (dimensionally unstable elements). It is also suitable for bamboo poles (e.g. in screens).
