Jotun Trebitt Woodcare
Jotun Trebitt Woodcare is a semi-transparent water-based wood treatment oil. Specially developed for outdoor use, this oil gives wood a natural and warm appearance while keeping the grain visible. It is a non-film-forming product, meaning it penetrates deeply into the wood rather than forming a surface layer. This allows the wood to retain its natural look and breathe. The oil protects your wood against mould, moisture, and UV rays, delivering a stunning result.
Pros and Cons
- Keeps the wood grain visible
- Deeply penetrates the wood
- Water-repellent and UV-resistant
- Requires regular maintenance
Jotun Trebitt Woodcare is semi-transparent, meaning the wood's surface is partially covered while still showcasing the natural grain and texture. This ensures a subtle and natural finish that’s perfect for outdoor surfaces. The non-film-forming feature ensures that the wood can regulate moisture effectively, reducing the risk of cracking or splitting. Since it doesn’t form a film, there’s no chance of peeling, which helps extend the lifespan of the protection. This product is ideal for cladding, fences, and garden furniture.
What is Jotun Trebitt Woodcare used for?
Jotun Trebitt Woodcare is ideal for the decorative and protective treatment of outdoor wooden surfaces. Applications include fences, wooden cladding, pergolas, and other garden structures. It not only provides a beautiful aesthetic but also long-term protection, making your wood resistant to water and mould.
What does “semi-transparent” mean?
Semi-transparent means the product offers partial coverage. This means the wood surface is partially protected with a layer of colour while still leaving the natural grain and texture clearly visible. The result is a balance between protection and a natural appearance.
What does “non-film-forming” mean?
A non-film-forming product penetrates deeply into the wood instead of creating a hard, visible layer on the surface. This allows the wood to breathe and better regulate moisture. It also reduces the risk of peeling or cracking compared to traditional film-forming coatings.
What is the coverage per m² for this product?
The average coverage of Jotun Trebitt Woodcare is 8–12 m² per litre. Coverage depends on the texture and absorbency of the wood. For rougher wood, the coverage is typically 8–10 m² per litre, while planed wood can yield 10–12 m² per litre.
Which brush or roller should I use?
Jotun Trebitt Woodcare can be easily applied with a brush or roller. For an even application, we recommend using a quality wood oil brush, especially on surfaces with grains and grooves.
Are there alternatives to this product?
Koopmans Houtdecor: This is a semi-transparent, non-film-forming oil based on linseed oil. While it shares similar properties, Koopmans Houtdecor has longer drying times.
Sikkens Cetol Novatech: A semi-transparent stain with minimal film-forming properties, designed for outdoor structures. However, this product creates a thin protective film on the wood instead of fully penetrating it.
