Full product details, applications & manufacturer specifications

A translucent satin alkyd finish for exterior wood siding, logs and trim.

The high-solids formula builds a protective finish in two coats while keeping the wood grain visible. It is intended for properly prepared exterior vertical wood and helps accommodate normal wood expansion and contraction. Use a deck-specific finish for walking surfaces.
