Vermont Natural Coatings (VNC) Penetrating Water Proofer is a non-toxic exterior sealer for raw wood: wood siding, fences, outdoor furniture, garden boxes, and other outdoor wood surfaces.

Penetrating Water Proofer is non-toxic, zero VOC, and safe for people, pets, and the environment. It has a very low odor and contains no biocides, fungicides, or anti-microbial agents.

Penetrating Water Proofer is infused with juniper, nature's strongest natural wood preservative. It stabilizes and seals the wood from the inside, which controls moisture absorption and extends the life of the wood by reducing mold, mildew, and decay. Penetrating Water Proofer dries clear and leaves no topcoat, allowing the wood's color to age naturally. (If you prefer a color, please consider VNC Exterior Penetrating Stain.)

  • Clear finish, no topcoat left behind 
  • Available in quart, gallon sizes, and 5-gallon sizes

More About This Product

General
  • Safe for use over water
  • Protects against moisture, mold and mildew
  • Invisible when dry; allow wood to gray naturally
  • Available in quarts, gallons and five gallon pails
  • Easy application & cleanup
Surface PreparationIf new wood, be certain surface is thoroughly cleaned before applying. For pressure washing, do not exceed 1200 psi and use wide-spray nozzle. Allow to dry completely. For previously coated material, be sure all loose finish is removed, then clean thoroughly. Test to ensure wood  is able to accept finish by checking if water beads on surface, or soaks into wood. If water soaks in, the wood it is able to accept Penetrating Water Proofer.
Application
  • Stir well prior to use.
  • Apply with a brush and/or spray equipment without thinning to a properly prepared surface. Brush in any puddles of product on the surface.
  • Apply two coats. The second coat must be applied before the first coat dries. If the first coat fully dries it will not allow the second coat to penetrate. No sanding is required between coats.
  • Coat all wood surfaces and end-grain and apply in temperatures between 45° – 100°F and relative humidity of 40%-60%. Coating all surfaces increases the stability of the wood. High humidity or low temperature may lengthen dry time.
Drying/Curing TimeUnder normal conditions, surface will be ready for foot traffic in 2-3 hours after second coat. One gallon will cover approximately 300 sq. ft. depending on porosity of wood.
