Penofin ®

Penofin ® exterior finishes are formulated to safeguard the natural beauty of wood and to prevent discoloration from the sun's ultraviolet rays.

Penofin ® resists and retards bleeding caused by nails. Two key ingredients contribute to Penofin's exceptional abilities:

Brazilian Rosewood Oil provides tough, deep-down moisture protection while still allowing the wood to "breathe". There's no surface film to trap moisture, chip or peel.

Microscopically fine, trans-oxide pigments inhibit ultraviolet damage and darkening. They add deep, rich color without hiding the natural beauty of the grain.

Wax Emulsion

Wax is needed for cut ends to reduce checking and to protect the ends.

The manufacture recommends wax and it is on all our decking and lumber. 

 

 

You only apply it on cuts you make. The manufacture has already treated the ends of our lumber.

Note: Brush show is an example of what you can use to apply

BoWrench

BoWrench helps if you are installing Brazilian Decking by yourself.  Our decking is rarely bowed and for several years we did not carry this tool.  However, homeowners who are building their decks on weekends have asked us to carry this tool.  
We now offer BoWrench.

• A deceptively simple-looking tool, the BoWrench is a must have for both professional builders and do-it-yourselfers. The BoWrench gives you a fast, one-person way to straighten decking boards. This is great, because decking material... whether redwood, cedar, or pressure treated pine... is often warped, especially in 12 to 16 foot lengths.

• To operate the BoWrench, you simply slip the tool on a joist, pull the lever arm, and release. You can either push or pull boards into alignment, and when the handle is perpendicular, the tool locks in place, holding the board securely and leaving both hands free to drive nails or screws.
