NB - the clear finishes offer comparitevly less UV protection than Sikkens translucent woodstains or opaque paints, which contain more pigment and therefore afford better protection against UV. Consequently the Oak sets require re-coating more regularly than the White or Hardwood sets, in order to maintain the integrity of the protective finish.
Oak sets will typically require re-coating every 12 months depending on location. If longer maintainence schedules are preferred, any colour from the Sikkens Filter 7 Translucent range is recommended.
