Description
Owatrol H4 Wood & Stone is a colourless Hydrophobic coating which offers water proof protection to exterior wood and stone. It allows the ageing process to take place naturally in wood, allowing it to grey and age in a natural way free from water, pollution, moss or dirt damaging or affecting the wood. The Hydrophobic properties are highly water repellent, it is completely clear and will not affect the colour or appearance of the wood. H4 is silicone free and helps prevent environmental attack including mould and water – and its long-term effects such as splitting and cracking.
H4 Wood & Stone can also be added to water-based finishes (such as paint or stain) to enhance their water repellent characteristics and optimise performance. Simply add 10 – 20% to the finish.
Ideal Uses
- Maintaining and protecting wood that has greyed naturally
- Maintaining and protecting stone, cement, plaster, limestone, marble etc.
- Allowing new wood to age naturally whilst still protecting it
- Keeping a natural look to fencing
- Add to water-based finishes to enhance their water repellent characteristics
Caution
- Cover everything you do not wish to coat, including plants and shrubs.

- Always work the entire length of a board or piece of wood to a logical break.
- Never stop application in the middle of a board or piece of wood.
- After spray application, always back-brush or back-roll to improve penetration and uniformity of coverage.
