Uses:
Cabot Semi-Transparent Acrylic Stains combine the penetrating properties
of traditional oil-based stains with the easy soapand- water clean-up
of water-based finishes. These stains are specially formulated to provide
long-lasting, vapor-permeable protection that beautifies and enriches
exterior wood surfaces. Containing a special acrylic resin, these products
are ideal for all types of natural wood siding, shingles, roofs and
log homes. Superior ultra-violet protection is achieved through the
use of non-fade, earth-tone pigments, in addition to a superior 100%
acrylic resin. Semi-Transparent Acrylic Stains are formulated to weather
slowly over time –without cracking, peeling or blistering. Cabot
Semi-Transparent Acrylic Stains are formulated for application on new
or properly reconditioned wood, including siding, shingles, shakes,
fences, roofs and on log homes. These beautiful stains provide outstanding
results on all natural wood species such as cedar, redwood, fir, pine,
spruce and cypress, including pressure-treated wood and plywood panel
siding. These stains may also be applied to new, unprimed fiber cement
siding.
