CUTEK® Wood Protection
CUTEK® Wood Protection is an advanced, oil-based wood stabiliser.
Specially designed to penetrate deeply into timber, providing long-term protection from within. Unlike traditional surface coatings that form a film and eventually peel or flake, CUTEK® works by diffusing into the wood’s core, minimising moisture absorption and reducing common issues like splitting, warping, and cupping.

FAQ's
Asked General Question
Q. What makes CUTEK® different from traditional wood coatings?
Ans:- CUTEK® penetrates deep into the timber instead of forming a surface film. This means it won’t peel or flake over time and offers long-lasting protection from within, making future maintenance easy and cost-effective.
Q. Can CUTEK® Wood Protection be used on all types of timber?
Ans:- Yes, CUTEK® is suitable for a wide range of timber species, including softwoods, hardwoods, and thermally modified wood. It’s commonly used for decking, cladding, posts, screens, and outdoor furniture.
Q. How often do I need to reapply CUTEK® Wood Protection?
Ans:- Reapplication frequency depends on environmental exposure and aesthetic preference. Typically, a top-up coat is recommended every 1–2 years, especially if you’re maintaining a specific colour tone or exposed to harsh conditions.
Q. Does CUTEK® protect against UV damage?
Ans:- CUTEK® clear oil protects against moisture and dimensional instability. To protect against UV damage and maintain timber colour, use CUTEK® with a suitable Colourtone additive. Without it, timber will naturally silver over time.
Q. Is surface preparation required before applying CUTEK®?
Ans:- Yes, for best results, the timber should be clean, dry, and free from previous coatings or contaminants. CUTEK® offers cleaning products like ProClean and Restore to prepare timber surfaces effectively before application.
