Introducing a new product range - exterior wood care
Wood Care
Wood is a beautiful and versatile product, used in a large variety of products for both in as outside your home. From furniture, natural wooden flooring, internal and external beams and supports to wall/roof cladding and decking.
It breaths, shows its natural character and is one of the rare products that - if treated correctly - becomes even more beautiful with time.
Clear Oil Finish
For all exterior wood you want to show/keep its true natural character, Saicos Clear Oil Finish is The Perfect Option for you.
It is a colourless oil based wood finish for all wood species and many purposes. It's transparent, slightly satin-mat, water and dirt repellent, durable and non-slip (produced in accordance with the latest results of scientific research and based on natural vegetable oils - environmental friendly with no biocides or preservations).
This oil penetrates into the wood, keeping it healthy and elastic, and protects the surface against weather influences and moisture. Swelling and shrinking of the wood is reduced.
It becomes a permanent part of the wood, the finish will not crack, flake, peel or blister. Therefore no sanding or scraping in case of renovation - just apply another coat.
Let nature take its course, naturally

The Clear Oil Finish, being colourless, does not offer any UV protection. Your exterior wood will, according to its unique nature, darken or bleach normally by the influence of sunlight. It is therefore a perfect product for those wood species where natural "greying" is appreciated, such as Red Cedar which over time develops a special uniform silver-grey surface. This also happens with various European wood species - larch, sweet chestnut etc.
Non-slip
Another big advantage of the Clear Oil Finish, especially for outdoor floors, wooden decks etc: it is absolutely non-slip!
Fields of application:

- A top-coat and additional protection against weathering over microporous, oil-based finishes on for instance wooden deckings, garden furniture, shutters, doors etc (1 coat)
