Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Penofin Transparent Matte Natural Oil-Based Penetrating Hardwood Stain 1 gal is designed to elevate outdoor wood projects with a truly natural look. This oil-based penetrating stain drains color deep into the fibers, letting the wood’s natural grain shine through while providing durable UV protection. The matte finish delivers a restrained, sophisticated appearance that resists glare and maintains a true wood character.

  • Penetrating oil-based formula so color soaks into the wood, reducing surface cracking and peeling and preserving texture.
  • Transparent, natural brown color enhances the wood without masking its character; part of the Brown color family with a Natural hue.
  • Matte finish for a subdued, authentic look that pairs beautifully with outdoor environments.
  • UV resistant to help slow color fade from sun exposure, keeping decks, fences, and furniture looking better longer.
  • Coverage of 300–400 sq ft per gallon, depending on wood porosity and surface texture, making it suitable for decks, fences, and other outdoor wood features.
  • Versatile application with brush, stain pad, or plastic pump sprayer for flexibility on large or complex projects.
  • Recoat time: Ready to recoat after about 4 hours, speeding up maintenance and project completion.
  • No separate sealer required — this penetrating stain forms the protective color within the wood, without a film-sealing topcoat.
  • VOC level at 250 g/L, aligned with typical outdoor staining standards.
  • Convenient 1-gallon container ideal for mid-sized decking, fencing, or outdoor wooden structures.

Who should consider this stain? Outdoor wood enthusiasts, DIYers tackling decks, fences, pergolas, planters, or garden furniture who want a natural-grade finish that respects the wood’s grain while delivering lasting color. It’s especially well-suited for surfaces where you want a tranquil, earthy brown tone that complements a wide range of wood species and exterior colors.

Why choose Penofin Transparent Matte Natural Oil-Based Penetrating Hardwood Stain? Because it combines a true penetrating finish with a matte, natural look, delivering durable UV protection without sacrificing the tactile feel or character of the wood. If you’re after a low-film alternative that keeps wood breathing and looking authentic over time, this 1 gal solution from Penofin stands out for outdoor projects that demand both beauty and resilience.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
