Dryden WoodOil
Description

Dryden WoodOil is a water-repellent, non-filming, timber protector. With its water repelling properties it helps prevent the absorption of water deep into timbers, reducing excessive warping, cupping, and splitting of timber, thus extending the lifespan of those timbers.

It is a migrating oil that does not film on the surface and therefore will not crack, flake or peel.

Maintenance

Dryden recommend annual maintenance inspections and soft washing to keep the building in optimum condition. In some circumstances, due to localised environmental conditions soft washing will be required more regularly.  

Inspections help with the early identification of maintenance requirements and minor issues before they become large expensive problems. 

For more information and detail on maintenance, refer to the Dryden WoodOil Cleaning & Maintenance Guide.
