Penofin and Log Homes

There's no tougher combination than Brazilian rosewood oil and transoxide pigments to defy the destructive forces of moisture and the sun...and to enhance the natural beauty of the wood. Outdoors or indoors.

Brazilian rosewood oil penetrates deep into the log, coating the individual wood fibers with tough transparent protection. This assures superior moisture protection yet allows the wood to breathe. The full natural beauty of the wood shows through...without surface cracking, peeling or the shininess associated with regular surface coatings.

Penofin is the most beautiful, natural, long-lasting protective finish you can apply to your log home... outdoors or indoors.

Transoxide Pigments Block UV Damage
Microscopically fine, reflective metallic oxides bounce back the sun's damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays. They add deep rich color without hiding the natural beauty of the logs. Our semi-transparent colors mimic the tones of weathered wood...and two even transform the green of pressure-treated wood into a rich brown. Contractors specify PENOFIN because its rich good looks and durable protection outlast the competition.

 

Contractors and homeowners praise the way Penofin keeps its good looks and its protection...for years!

Here are just a few reasons why contractors and owners of premium homes keep coming back for more:

  • Tough Brazilian rosewood oil base locks out moisture yet lets wood breathe
  • No surface film to trap moisture, blister, crack or peel
  • No high-gloss surface shine
  • Natural oil base...not polyurethane
  • Transoxide pigments virtually eliminate ultraviolet-caused darkening and weathering
  • Wide selection of rich traditional and contemporary colors...even two for pressure-treated woods
  • Transparent colors never hide the woodgrain
  • Interior, exterior & low-VOC* products available

At Performance Coatings, our concern for the environment is not just a marketing ploy.
