WOODCRAFTER'S TIP
Penofin® Interior Wood Stain Applications
PENOFIN ®
Gold
Label Interior Oil Stain is a high-performance penetrating oil finish
that protects and enhances the natural beauty of exotic and domestic hardwoods
and softwoods. Use on all professional woodworking projects that require
a durable, long-lasting, natural finish. PENOFIN is transparent, dries
quickly, and does not bleed back or cause raised grain. Further, it prevents
yellowing fading, and darkening. Being a penetrating oil, it has no surface
film to chalk, peel, or crack. Application
Interior Paneling: Apply one generous coat
of Penofin Interior Wood Stain and wipe entire surface after 30 minutes.
Protects the wood from moisture damage and discoloration. Woodworking: use
PENOFIN on cabinets, flooring, furniture and exotic art objects. For custom
woodworking, professionals use a wet sanding method for hand-rubbed beauty.
Wet sanding with PENOFIN creates a natural paste that fills the pores of
the wood and eliminates the need for a sanding sealer or paste filler. For
a high-gloss finish, use this method with multiple coats.
Wet-sanding method:
1. Sand smooth with the wood grain, using
150-grit or finer sandpaper.
2. Apply PENOFIN Interior Wood Stain generously, flooding all areas.
After 15 minutes, add more PENOFIN to dry areas and end grain. Thirty
minutes later, remove excess with a clean, dry cloth. Allow to cure at
least 24 hours.
3. Apply PENOFIN to a small area. With 400- to 600-grit wet/dry sandpaper,
sand with the grain and keep the area wet with PENOFIN oil. Wipe the area
dry and repeat the process until grain is filled and desired patina is
achieved. Buff to a polish with a clean, soft cloth. If desired, a polyurethane
varnish or lacquer may be applied over PENOFIN after waiting one week.
Colors
PENOFIN Interior Finishes are available
in the following colors: Natural, Appalachian Oak, Medium Walnut, Dark
Walnut, Golden Oak, and Mahogany.
Color Test
It is best to apply PENOFIN to test strips
in order to determine the color desired. The shade can be affected by
the manner applied, the length of time the oil is left on and by the number
of coats. If desired color is attained with one coat of a pigmented formula,
the wet sand process may be done with PENOFIN Natural.
Maintenance
Burnishing with a soft dry cloth or buffer
will maintain the beauty of PENOFIN-enriched wood. Because PENOFIN is
a penetrating oil, damaged areas, scratches or stains may be repaired
using the wet sanding process with PENOFIN Natural or a tinted formula.
Clean
Up
Use Mineral spirits or paint thinner.
