Product Description Sikkens Cetol THB Plus is a high-performance, solvent-borne translucent woodstain formulated to protect and beautify exterior wood surfaces. Designed with advanced alkyd resin technology, it delivers exceptional durability, water resistance, and UV protection, making it ideal for use on hardwood and softwood joinery such as windows, doors, and cladding. This premium woodstain enhances the natural character of wood with a rich, satin finish that highlights the grain while providing a breathable, microporous coating. This allows moisture vapor to escape, reducing the risk of blistering and flaking over time.
