Sikkens SIKCHLSPLO 1L Cetol HLS Plus Translucent Woodstain Light Oak

Sikkens Cetol HLS Plus Translucent Woodstain is a sophisticated low build, solvent-borne semi-gloss woodstain designed to enhance the beauty of wood while providing exceptional protection. This versatile product serves both as a base stain and as a finishing coat, making it an ideal choice for various exterior applications.

Product Features

Cetol HLS Plus is specifically formulated to be highly translucent, allowing the natural grain of the wood to shine through. The formulation offers the following benefits:

- Protection against mould and algae

- Resistance to UV radiation, preventing fading and discolouration

- Durability against peeling and cracking

- Microporous and water-repellent, ensuring that the wood can breathe while keeping out water

Suitable Applications

This woodstain is suitable for use on both exterior softwood and hardwood substrates, making it versatile for many projects. It can be effectively applied to:

- Cladding

- Fascias and soffits

- Rough sawn timber

- Fencing

In addition to these finishes, Cetol HLS Plus can also be used as a base stain for:

- Exterior softwood and hardwood joinery

- Windows and doors

However, it is important to note that while Cetol HLS Plus performs excellently as a base stain, it should not be used alone as a finishing coat for hardwood timbers.

Application and Coverage

The application process is straightforward, and the product can be easily absorbed into the timber, providing a robust foundation for further finishing coats if desired. For areas such as cladding, decking, and garden furniture, Cetol HLS Plus can be used by itself. When seeking additional protection and aesthetics, it may be applied as a base coat prior to using Cetol Filter 7 Plus or Cetol THB Plus on windows and doors. Coverage for this woodstain ranges from 7 to 14 m² per litre, depending on the texture and absorbency of the wood surface.

Sikkens Cetol HLS Plus is available in a selection of attractive colours tailored to enhance the natural beauty of your wood:

- Dark Oak

- Ebony

- Light Oak
