UV Clear Wood Paint

Pure clear wood paint with UV protection that is totally transparent to show the full beauty of the grain.

High performing exterior and interior eco wood paint with minimal V.O.C.s suitable for any application inside or outside.

Translucent wood paints need to be treated like wood stains and the appropriate painting technique adopted. They are often not suitable for overcoating solid colour coatings and work best on fresh timber or in maintenance of a similar coating. Best applied with a small amount on the brush or roller, working the paint in well and spreading it out in small methodical stretches, painting with the grain and up to still wet paint to avoid patches and streaks.

For UV Clear we recommend applying 3-4 coats to make sure that the coating is nice and strong. With coloured coatings you can see when you’re painting, easily noticing if you’ve missed any sections or if any parts are thin and streaky offering little protection. With UV Clear it isn’t so easy to spot thin or patchy painted areas so painting 3-4 coats will make sure that you haven’t missed anything and your timber is fully protected from the elements.

    Pure clear wood paint with UV protection that is totally transparent to show the full beauty of the grain.

    A pure clear protecting timber from UV and anything else nature and you can throw at it. Perfect top coat for if you only want to apply one coat of a coloured paint but still need the full 2 coat protection, or if you’ve watered the paint down for a wood stain effect this will provide full protection on top.

    It’s easy to transform and protect any timber surface with Thorndown Clear Wood Paint, allowing you to be as creative as you like with it. Whether you paint straight from the tin, choose to mix colours or dilute it for a stain effect, we just want it to be fun. But remember not to reward yourself with a cider until the painting is done.
