Sansin Enviro Stain

Wood is a tremendously versatile material—and as long as it’s protected, a strong and durable one.  Unlike traditional petroleum and acrylic-based coatings that protect wood by forming a surface film, Sansin’s penetrating formulas let wood breathe more freely, improving dimensional stability and allowing wood to adjust naturally to moisture levels in the environment.  

Sansin penetrating finishes form monolithic bonds with wood that aggressively repel condensed water while allowing moisture vapor to escape.  In addition, Sansin’s modified natural oils and resins are impregnated with special UV protectants, so every cell is protected.  Because of their unique formulation, Sansin Enviro Stains help protect naturally against wood rot, giving woods the long-lasting, beautiful protection they deserve, just as Mother Nature intended.

Sansin for Exterior Siding and Shingles 

Sansin SDF Finish is a superior penetrating finish for vertical surfaces, such as siding, decks and fences.  SDF provides exceptional UV protection in a wide range of natural, semi-transparent and solid colors.  Thanks to its unique waterborne formulation and proprietary nano technology colorants, SDF provides lasting protection in just one coat, enhancing the natural beauty of wood.

And, because SDF is designed to be highly water-repellant, it’s a natural choice for homes and other structures in moisture-rich environments. Not only does SDF protect the surface of your wood by repelling water, it also protects beneath the surface by allowing wood to “breathe,” which prevents moisture from being trapped in the wood and causing rot and cracking, peeling or blistering in the finish.

Sansin for Exterior Trim & Doors

Sansin ENS Finish is a durable two-coat finish that can be applied to virtually any exterior surface, including wood or fiberglass windows and doors, garage doors, dry log substrates, trim, millwork, furniture and siding.  Highly durable and low in VOCs, ENS is highly resistant to wear, doesn’t discolor over time and provides some of the toughest UV protection available.  And, because of its excellent adhesion, ENS can be applied over other water- and oil-based products to improve the performance of those coatings.  

ENS Companion Products:

Sansin ENS Naturals Topcoat (wood tone; good adhesion on other wood finishes for maintenance)

Sansin for Decks

Sansin DEC Finish is durable protection for high wear horizontal surfaces, such as decks, docks and balconies.  DEC provides excellent UV and weather protection, without cracking, peeling or blistering.  Rated as best overall deck finish by Professional Deck Builders Magazine, DEC is a penetrating waterborne alkyd finish that promotes dimensional stability and reduces warping, shrinking and checking.  Use DEC on Cedar, Spruce, Pine, Fir, exotic hardwoods and pressure treated lumber.

Sansin for Log Homes

Sansin Classic 1-2-3 is a penetrating three-coat finish for log and timber-frame exteriors.  Low in VOCs and water repellant, Classic is engineered to penetrate wood of variable moisture content, providing exceptional UV and weather protection while allowing the wood to breathe.  Use Classic on log home and other wood exteriors, including shakes, shingles and timbers, where a beautiful, natural, low luster non-film forming finish is desirable.
