User questions & answers

Question:	Does this product penetrate like a mineral oil or does it have some body to it? Does it sit on the surface to give almost a polyurethane finished look
Answer:	It is a penetrating natural oil finish that leaves a wax micro-film layer on the surface. It gives more of a natural oil look with the forgiveness similar to polyurethane.
Question:	Would the osmo polyx be okay on a fireplace mantle that gets pretty warm
Answer:	Yes, it will be fine after the full cure time of two weeks.
Question:	Is this product (osmo polyx-oil high solid 3031 clear matte) a suitable option for finishing glue-down forna cork floor tiles
Answer:	Don't know. Are the tiles wood? If so should work. Sorry for not being more helpful.
Question:	Why are there so many (ignoring satin/matte/glossy choices) variations in the product line? what are the purposes for extra-thin, etc
Answer:	What you use mainly depends on the type of wood you are working with. The extra thin absorbs more easily and is a good first or second coat. The Polyx-Oil will sit more on the surface. Be sure to watch a YouTube on application. It is much different than the more traditional applications.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product recommended to use on Ipe wood outdoor furniture
Answer:	Yes, most definitely.
Question:	Would this product work on my pressure treated deck? I know there is a pressure treated product from Penofin, but would this work as well
Answer:	Red label works excellent on pressure treated wood. We just recommend it be fully dried out before applying, typically installed for 6+ months prior.
Question:	Will this product protect my wood windows that have been fully sanded down exterior? They receive almost no direct sunlight
Answer:	It is an oil based product and will protect. I have used it on a cedar fence I made and on cedar outdoor benches, and have found that they turn black over time. Don't think I'll use it anymore.
Question:	Can this stain be painted over with a solid stain type. I wish to use it as a preservative undercoat
Answer:	This is a question for the manufacturer, however they do have many colors already blended into this product that may serve this dual purpose in one application.

User questions & answers

Question:	I used cedar -seal on a cedar fence about 10 months ago and my fence looks worst than it would have looked if i used nothing at all. how do i remove
Answer:	This paint is way below sub-standard and turned my whole two decks gray and turned brand new wood to look like they 20 years old very BAD product and damage should contact the manufacture for damages.
Question:	Can this be used on stained pine
Answer:	Yes it says stain first then seal, works on all types of wood,... goes on milky dries clear mat finish
Question:	How much is in the can, a gallon or quart
Answer:	A gallon
Question:	What is best way to remove agra life cedar seal. this product was applied about 10 months ago and has not performed well at all
Answer:	If your wood turned gray, its normal. Fences and decks of cedar require maintenance. When outdoors, the wood needs a sealer then paint or stain if they are to hold up. On the softer wood side of the scale if cedar is used for walkways, it will wear, eventually flaking on the surface. Salt applied to decks during winter affects cedar as well. Cities experience black soot issues. If color is desired, apply a waterbased stain or paint that is 'cedar colored' to suit your eye. Since it was sealed, no primer needed. Hot water pressure washing usually works for paint or sealants.

User questions & answers

Question:	How can i get the msds for this product
Answer:	https://www.penofin.com/product-support/product-literature
Question:	what is the coverage for one gallon
Answer:	Based on my experience putting it on ipe (Brazilian ironwood), if it's a first coat on non-oiled wood, I wouldn't plan on a gallon covering more than about 200 sq ft. You need to apply a second coat within 3-4 months to reinforce it, and that may cover more like 300 sq ft, depending on how long between the coats. You might squeeze out more coverage each time if you're judicious applying it. Assuming the deck boards are 5.5", I would recommend using a or 9" staining pad on a handle for first putting it on, then wipe it in with a rag or staining pad. You have to wait 30 minutes before wiping it in, so I would do four boards, skip the next four (so I have a place to stand when coming back to wipe it), do the next four, skip four and so on. Then later I would come back to do the other groups of four boards. Don't roll anything like a grill across the deck for at least two days after having oiled it, so it needs lots of time to fully cure. It can look terrific when you're done.
Question:	Would this be appropriate for use on the exterior of an antique southwestern style wood front door
Answer:	not sure on door - i used it on ipe decking - not happy with it - turned black - lost all of the beautiful colors of ice wood.
Question:	Is it required to sand an ipe deck before applying ipe oil
Answer:	No. The only instance where this is required would be when other types of finishes had been applied in the past and may prevent penetration.

• WATER-BASED, CRYSTAL CLEAR WOOD STAIN – This environmentally friendly, water based, clear deck stain prevents graying caused by the harmful effects of the sun, while adding little to no change to the natural look of your wood. It's great for staining wood decks, fences, siding, playsets, outdoor patio furniture, and more.
• FORTIFIED WITH ZINC NANO-PARTICLE TECHNOLOGY– It’s like sunscreen for your wood. Tiny zinc particles dispersed throughout the stain reflect damaging UV rays, preventing premature graying and color loss.

The result is a quality semi-transparent deck stain that typically lasts a season or two longer than competitive products. Keep your deck, fence or siding looking great for longer by using DEFY premium wood stains.
• EASY TO MAINTAIN – When it’s time to do a maintenance coat, there’s no need to sand or strip the surface again. Simply brighten the wood with DEFY Wood Brightener and apply a single maintenance coat of DEFY Extreme Wood Stain.
• 250 VOC COMPLIANT - Ships to all states except California. California residents can purchase DEFY Extreme 40, which is VOC Compliant in California.

User questions & answers

Question:	will this work in paint gun
Answer:	yes it will, that's how I applied it.
Question:	Will be applying to white cedar fence. How dry does the wood have to be
Answer:	I did not heed the "one year" to dry on the new portion of my deck. Did old and new at the same time when the new portion was perhaps 2 months old. There was a definite difference. I washed and brightened both. Also did two coats. The 2nd coat was done while the first coat was still wet as per instructions. Also brushed vs. rolled. The stain seeped into the older wood much better and the color is richer. Don't believe the stain will last for years. In covered areas yes, it does. But my deck area that gets full S.Carolina sun, does not last the year. I re-stained last year and will be doing a layer of water proofing on horizontal surfaces this year in hopes that I won't have to stain again for a while. I am still happy that I bought the water based just because of the clean up and the ease of re-staining even if I feel I had to do it much quicker than if I had used oil based.
Question:	Can I use this on my new cream colored bamboo blinds? Unsure about the method they were colored, but almost no sheen. Want stain protection in kitchen
Answer:	Hard to say without looking at the wood , but if the wood still looks porous enough we're the Stain can soak in some I would think a light coat possibly 2 would do it. It's very thin milky color but dries clear
Question:	I am applying this to a fence. Would you recommend it for fences? Also, if you have used this product how well is it holding up
Answer:	Using it for 10 years, great on fences. Apply W weed oil sprayer. Brush W 4" throw away brush as needed. Time between coats varies W the look you want. 2-3 years looks great. At 5 years fading is noticeable. Apply when cool. Dampen surfaces to get soak in.
