Wood preservative PINOTEX Classic Colourless AE 1 L — clear protective coating for exterior wood

PINOTEX Classic Colourless AE 1 L is a clear wood preservative formulated for exterior timber surfaces that require transparent protection. The product is designed to penetrate the wood structure, reduce the effects of weathering and provide a protective barrier against moisture and biological agents while preserving the natural appearance of the wood. Supplied in a one-litre container, this clear protective coating is intended for use on fences, facades, decking and garden furniture where a non-tinting finish is required.

Advantages

This clear wood preservative penetrates to strengthen and protect fibres without forming an opaque surface layer, allowing the wood’s original colour and grain to remain visible. It helps slow down moisture ingress and reduces the likelihood of biological deterioration such as mould and rot when applied correctly. The transparent formulation is suitable for substrates where changes to appearance are unwanted and enables easy re-treatment and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Exterior wooden facades and cladding that require unobtrusive protection
• Garden furniture and wooden benches where the natural wood look is desired
• Wooden fences and gates exposed to weather
• Decking and outdoor timber surfaces needing penetrating, transparent protection

Key specifications

• Form: clear, penetrating wood preservative suitable for exterior use
• Container size: 1 litre
• Finish: transparent, non-opaque, retains natural wood appearance
• Primary function: protection against weathering, moisture and biological attack
• Application surfaces: exterior timber including fences, facades, decking and garden furniture

How to use

Apply the product to a clean, dry and structurally sound wooden surface. Stir well before use. Apply evenly with a brush, roller or low-pressure sprayer following the manufacturer’s recommended coverage rates. Allow the preservative to penetrate; excess surface material should be removed after a short open time if necessary. For best results, treat all sides of cut ends and joints. Recoat intervals depend on exposure and wear; follow regular inspection and maintenance schedules to retain protection.

Usage recommendations

Test the product on a small, inconspicuous area first to confirm compatibility with the wood species and desired appearance. For heavily weathered or previously coated surfaces, carry out appropriate surface preparation such as cleaning, drying and, where required, removal of loose coatings before application. Store and dispose of the container according to local regulations and keep out of reach of children.
