Description
Cetol Filter 7 Plus is a silk-gloss transparent wood protection for your dimensionally stable exterior wood.
This product based on a new generation of high-solid alkyd resins has a higher percentage of solids compared to traditional alkyd resins. As a result, you get greater film formation and a thicker layer, thus offering better protection and durability.
Another advantage: this stain can be applied to all types of wood after priming with Cetol HLS Plus or Cetol Novatech.

- Highly transparent, so that the wood structure remains clearly visible

How long does Sikkens Filter 7 last?
If you regularly maintain your wood with Sikkens Filter 7, your wood can last a lifetime. When is it really necessary to re-stain your wood? After five to seven years, there is an urgent need to re-stain your wood to protect it from sun and rain. And there is no harm in applying a new coat even before then. With a transparent stain, we actually recommend an extra coat every three years. However, if you prefer to wait five to seven years, that's no problem for your wood, but it will just look a bit worse. So it is not the case that your wood stain will fall off in flakes. So you shouldn't be afraid of that.
How long will this Sikkens Cetol stay on wood?
Cetol Filter 7 will not flake or fall off your wood. In fact, this product has good adhesion if you use the right primer such as Sikkens HLS Plus or Sikkens Cetol Novatech. After about seven years, you may well notice that a stain pulverises a bit, in which case it is high time to sand and apply a new coat of this Sikkens Cetol filter 7 plus stain.
How long protection against UV rays?
Is your wooden surface facing the sun or does it mainly catch shade? It all depends on how often and how long your wooden window frames, garden shed, ... are in full sun. For example, UV protection varies from 3 to 7 years. So it varies a lot. But the trick to keep in mind: if your wood discolours, it will need a new protective layer of stain to be better protected against UV rays. However, after 5, 6 or 7 years, does your wood still have its beautiful hue? Then fortunately it is still protected from the sun's rays and you can go on for a while.
