PENOFIN - the PENetrating Oil FINish

Penofin transparent and semitransparent wood finishes were formulated to enhance and protect the natural beauty of fresh, untreated wood. Penofin's ingredients were chosen because of their performance not their cost. This perspective has made Penofin the finest wood finish available.

Penofin was the industry innovator in the use of transoxide pigments. They were first developed in the automotive industry and are the same pigments that create the long-lasting metallic finishes of cars today. The transoxide pigment particles are large enough to provide a 90-percent ultraviolet block, yet small enough so as to not disrupt the uniformity of the Penofin surface. These microscopic strategic metal particles are the perfect balance between ultraviolet protection and uniformity of color and surface.

Brazilian Rosewood Oil (Oiticica Oil extracted from Oiticica Nuts) is the base oil of Penofin. It is a strong, flexible, water-resistant oil which is also ultraviolet resistant. Our economic-environmental synergy with Brazilian Rosewood seed oil from the dry plains of Brazil, for instance, has resulted in no trees being cut to furnish Penofin with the amazing, penetrating, sustainably harvested oil that wins the "Battle of the Stains" penetration tests against all other wood finishes. We are very proud of our environmental record in protecting the world's wood resource.

The Penofin product line was developed to offer the user a wide variety of finishes for any woodworking project. Penofin comes in a full spectrum of transparent finishes along with semitransparent architectural shades in gray and white and colors to cover the "green" of pressure-treated lumber. A complete line of Penofin exterior and interior finishes are available in quarts, one-, five-, 30-, and 55-gallon containers.
