CWF®-UV5
Premium Penetrating Wood Finish
Premium wood finish and wood sealer formulated to protect against UV
rays and water damage
CWF-UV5 is a premium oil-based exterior wood
finish that protects, waterproofs and beautifies exterior wood. CWF-UV5
wood sealer is specially formulated to guard exterior wood finish from
its two biggest enemies – water and sun. CWF-UV5 is fortified
with Flood's exclusive Penetrol® which deeply enriches the wood
with superior penetration providing maximum protection. CWF-UV5 also
contains transparent iron oxides to effectively absorb and block the
harmful rays of the sun.

Wood Protection Preparation

Warranty to apply.
• Surfaces must be thoroughly clean, dry and free of dirt, mildew
and previous coatings.
• Remove mildew with a solution of one part household bleach to
four parts water.
• Clean weathered wood with Flood® Dekswood® Deck Cleaner
and Brightener.

penetration and uniformity of coverage.
