Exterior Cleaning and Maintenance

Hybrid Wood Protector should be reapplied before the colour fades. This depends on wear and tear and the exterior elements it is exposed to. On a deck, it may need a maintenance coat 6-12 months for the first year and thereafter less frequently. It is important to reapply the oil before the colour fades. Reapplications will require less oil; and you may prefer to mix the colour with HWP Pure oil if you don’t want to put down too much pigment.

Rubio® WoodCream is used on vertical surfaces and requires less maintenance than products used on horizontal surfaces. A maintenance coat should be done with the original colour or the Softener.

Rubio Monocoat WoodCream is based on hydrophobic technology especially developed for maximum wood protection. Its unique and active self-cleaning formula intensely nourishes the wood, preserves the breathable structure, and makes it water-repellent, which results in a long-lasting pearl effect. WoodCream is available in 27 colours to achieve a semi-transparent, aged or covering look. A transparent version is also available, which allows the wood to age naturally, but protects it and makes it water-repellent. Its cream structure makes this product easy to apply, especially on vertical wood.

To achieve a semi-transparent or aged look? Rubio WoodCream must be mixed with Rubio® WoodCream Softener. Rubio® WoodCream Softener is also the ideal product for maintenance solutions on wooden surfaces treated with Rubio WoodCream.
