Some of these products bridge the gaps between oil and varnish and preserver and opaque colour. They are specifically for outside use only. They are all useful. A highlight is the Owatrol Deks Olje (pronounced " Deks Oil") system: a 2 part oil/varnish which starts inside the wood. Please look at the data sheets or call us for more information.
Many other products in the wood finish part of this website are of course for exterior use. Please refer to product information to make sure if the products you choose are suitable for the application you intend.
