Prep tip: Follow Penofin Pro-Tech order for the wood you have. Softwoods often use Cleaner #2 then Brightener #3 when weathered. Hardwoods commonly need Cleaner #2 and Brightener #3 to open dense pores; new hardwoods often use First Step Prep. Strip old film finishes before cleaner and brightener. Always confirm dry time on the can before staining.

FAQ

What is the Pro-Tech sequence?

Typical sequence: strip if needed (Step 1), Cleaner #2, Brightener #3 when wood is weathered or for hardwoods, then dry thoroughly before stain. First Step Prep is for new hardwood prep per Penofin.

Stain & Sealer vs Verde?

Stain & Sealer is Penofin's stain-and-sealer line in the catalog. Verde is labeled Zero VOC and is the choice when you specifically need a zero-VOC exterior stain option. Match the product to local VOC rules and the look you want.

Is Penofin for interior furniture?

These Penofin lines are positioned for exterior wood such as decks, fences, and outdoor wood. For interior furniture color, shop interior wood stains instead.
