Penofin Ultra Premium Transparent Matte Sable Oil-Based Penetrating Wood Stain (1 gal) delivers a premium exterior finish that emphasizes natural wood texture while providing tough, long-lasting protection. The transparent sable shade sits in the brown family to enrich grain without hiding it, and the matte sheen offers a refined, timeless look for outdoor projects.
-
Penetrating oil-based formula delivers deep protection from within the wood, not just a surface film, helping to guard against moisture and weathering.
-
UV resistant finish helps minimize color fade and graying so your deck, fence, or siding retains its warm sable hue over time.
-
Water-repellent properties reduce swelling and moisture intrusion, contributing to the wood’s longevity in outdoor environments.
-
Transparent color (Sable) preserves the natural grain while adding a rich brown tone, ideal for enhancing rather than obscuring wood texture.
-
Matte sheen provides a sophisticated, low-gloss appearance that resists glare in bright outdoor lighting.
-
Coverage: 300-400 sq ft per gallon — a practical choice for decks, fences, and exterior siding, with one gallon handling typical projects with even application.
-
Application options include brush, stain pad, or plastic pump sprayer, offering flexibility for vertical or horizontal surfaces and large areas.
-
Recoat time about 3 hours, giving you a quicker return to use and faster project completion (recoat after the recommended dry interval).
-
Outdoor use and VOC level: 250 reflect its suitability for exterior wood care while meeting environmental considerations.
