The finish also contains active ingredients to aid in the prevention of mould, fungi, and algae growth. The transparent/clear oil and wax formula imparts excellent water repellence to both softwood and hardwood, giving a microporous finish which is resistant to flaking, peeling, cracking and blistering.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from dirt and grease.
- Reverse wood silvering using Barrettine Wood Reviver
- Confirm compatibility/remove previous coatings
- Allow new wood to acclimatise in situ, up to 6 weeks for tannin-rich species
- Remove any resinous deposits with a scraper and wipe with Barrettine Methylated Spirits
- Fill any cracks or gaps as necessary, using a suitable wood filler
- Sand wood to a smooth finish with medium grit sandpaper
- Treat with Barrettine Mould & Mildew Cleaner
- For unpreserved timber, treat with Barrettine Universal Preserver/ Barrettine Cut End Preserver
- Stir thoroughly with a flat-bladed paint stirrer before and during application, ensuring good ventilation (preferably apply outside). Protect areas not intended to be coated with impermeable sheeting/masking tape and if in doubt, confirm suitability before use.
Test Area: Depending on wood type and condition, Armourflex UV Oil will darken the surface but this will usually fade back after a period of time and when the product has fully cured. We highly recommend carrying out a small test area first to make sure you will be happy with the final finish.
- Apply 2-3 coats evenly using a high-quality brush and/or roller. (Armourflex roller is recommended)
- First coat – apply generously until wood is saturated
- Subsequent coats – apply sparingly, gloss will increase
- Allow minimum 4 hours between coats and 10 hours until fully dry
- Protect from rain/frost until dry. Cold/damp conditions cause a hazy appearance.
Moisture content <20% - Application/drying temperature - 5-30°C - No rain forecast within 12 hours and >2 days since heavy rain - Relative humidity <80%, ideally <60%
Always follow manufacturer's instructions found on the tin
Wash with Barrettine Mould & Mildew Cleaner to remove dirt and kill surface mould spores, ideally twice annually.
Re-coat annually, or on the first sign of weathering. If breaches in the film begin to show, (cracks, flakes, blisters, wood greying) then a maintenance wash and re-coat are needed ASAP. Early Spring or Early Autumn is the best time to wash and recoat.
If weathering is not treated, cracking and flaking may occur. Remove the top layer by sanding, reverse any wood greying with Barrettine Wood Reviver, then re-treat with Barrettine UV Protection Oil.
Maintenance requirements will depend on wood location and position. Expect sunny, exposed, south facing and damp areas to require annual re-treatment, whilst sheltered and drier areas will need less.
Harsh chemical cleaners, alcohols or physical methods e.g. jet washing/steam cleaning are not recommended and may damage the surface.
To remove the coating completely, Peelaway7 would be recommended.
Store between 5-30°C, out of direct sunlight and protect from frost. Once opened, close lid tightly between uses. If a skin forms on the surface, this can be removed and discarded but the drying time may be decreased from then onwards. If stored correctly, unopened tins will have a shelf life of two years from date of manufacture.
Q. How will Armourflex Ultimate Cladding UV Protection Oil protect cladding?
A. Wood cladding is often exposed to moisture, which can lead to issues like rotting, warping, or cracking. This protection oil helps repel moisture, preventing it from penetrating the wood and causing damage. It forms a breathable yet water-resistant barrier that allows the wood to expand and contract naturally while keeping it protected from excessive moisture. The oil provides excellent UV protection, helping to prevent the wood from fading, graying, or becoming discolored due to exposure to sunlight. UV rays can be damaging to wood surfaces, causing them to deteriorate over time. Armourflex Ultimate Cladding UV Protection Oil creates a barrier that shields the wood from harmful UV radiation. It will also strengthen and reinforce the natural structure of the wood, enhancing its durability.
