Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain Clear Matt 701 750ml

Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain Clear Matt 701 is a premium exterior wood finish designed to protect exterior timber while maintaining a natural matt appearance. Ideal for vertical exterior wood surfaces, this clear oil-based wood finish enhances the natural character of timber without creating a glossy surface coating.

Based on natural vegetable oils, the microporous breathable formula penetrates into the wood to provide a water-repellent and weather-resistant finish that will not crack, peel or flake.

Osmo 701 Clear Matt is commonly used as a clear matt top coat over pigmented Osmo exterior finishes to reduce sheen levels and create a more natural-looking exterior wood finish.

Important Information About UV Protection

Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain 701 Clear Matt does not contain UV-resistant pigments and therefore is not recommended for exterior timber exposed to strong direct sunlight.

For this reason, Osmo 701 is most suitable for:

• Covered outdoor areas
• Vertical timber surfaces
• Roof soffits
• Carports
• Exterior timber cladding
• Garden buildings
• Summer houses
• Clear matt top coats over pigmented Osmo exterior finishes

Natural Matt Exterior Wood Finish

Many exterior wood coatings create an artificial glossy appearance that hides the natural texture and character of timber. Osmo Clear Matt 701 is specifically designed to produce a low sheen natural finish that allows the grain and structure of the wood to remain visible.

This makes it particularly popular for modern timber cladding, contemporary garden buildings and exterior joinery where a subtle natural appearance is preferred.

Microporous Breathable Protection

Unlike traditional exterior varnishes and film-forming coatings, Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain penetrates into the timber rather than forming a brittle surface layer.

The breathable microporous finish allows moisture vapour to escape while helping reduce the risk of:

• Peeling
• Flaking
• Blistering
• Cracking
• Excessive swelling and shrinkage

Ideal As A Matt Top Coat

Osmo 701 Clear Matt is widely used as a matt top coat over pigmented Osmo exterior wood finishes including:

• Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain
• Osmo Country Colour
• Osmo One Coat Only HS Plus

Applying Clear Matt 701 as a top coat helps reduce sheen levels and creates a more natural matt exterior wood finish.
