Premium finish formulated to protect against UV rays and water damage
CWF-UV5 is a premium oil-based wood finish that protects and beautifies exterior wood. CWF-UV5 is specially formulated to guard exterior wood from its two biggest enemies – water and sun. CWF-UV5 is fortified with Flood's exclusive Penetrol® which deeply enriches the wood with superior penetration providing maximum protection. CWF-UV5 also contains transparent iron oxides to effectively absorb and block the harmful rays of the sun.
