Features & Benefits

Product Highlights
  • Sansin Wood Sealer is a low VOC water-borne protective wood treatment that aggressively repels water while allowing wood to breathe. Over a short time, the wood will weather uniformly to a beautiful silver gray tone. Wood Sealer provides exceptional protection and won’t break down with exposure to sunlight, retaining its water-repellency and protecting against weathering and wood rot. Because it erodes gently with time, maintenance is easy – just apply a fresh coat of Wood Sealer.
  • Wood Sealer is designed to bring dimensional stability to wood by reducing moisture absorption up to 74% during wetting periods.
  • Wood Sealer dries clear, will not peel and can be used for interiors as well as exteriors. Wood Sealer is ideal for log homes, decks, fences, wood shingles, gazebos, yard furniture and wood siding.
