Untreated Platowood Fraké ages to a silver-gray hue due to weathering. By means of the Natural Color Stain - a semi-transparent stain - Platowood provides its customers with the opportunity to retain the brown color of the wood. Bart Raymann, commercial director Platowood: "From an aesthetic point of view, color retention is often requested by architects and others. Through the new finish, Platowood is responding to this growing demand. And we can offer a finish with a long maintenance interval." Depending on weather conditions, the maintenance interval of the finish is 3 to 4 years. If maintenance instructions are followed, Platowood offers a 10-year warranty on this finish. To ensure proper stain adhesion, the stain is always applied to a brushed surface.
Natural Color
In addition to Natural Color Stain, color preservation is also possible using an environmentally friendly oil: Natural Color Oil. This oil, based on linseed, contains less pigment and therefore a lower amount of UV protection when applied correctly. As a result, the oil is degraded faster by weathering than the stain. As a result, the maintenance interval is shorter and there is no warranty on this finish.
