Penetrol is a quality paint conditioner that improves the penetration of Woodguard and other oil based finishes. It allows finishes like Woodguard to spread easier and faster, giving more uniform flow and coverage. Penetrol also works well to keep paint additives like Bug Juice properly mixed with oil based finishes. Not recommended for use with ProLuxe (Sikkens) finishes due to a lack of testing. Sold by the quart. Made in the USA.
MSDS Cannot Ship to Alaska.
