Osmo Uv Protection Oil Tints

Osmo UV-Protection Oil Tints are premium, natural oil-based wood finishes designed specifically for exterior use. Enriched with pigments and active ingredients, they offer high-performance UV resistance, protecting exterior wood from the damaging effects of sun exposure while adding a subtle, decorative tint.

Formulated with a microporous finish that allows wood to breathe, this product reduces the risk of cracking, peeling, or blistering. It is ideal for use on vertical wood surfaces such as cladding, fencing, doors, and window frames.
