Step 2 Select Your Texture

The wood texture you choose for your cladding not only affects its appearance, but can also influence its maintenance requirements.

Textured

The textured finish is an ideal solution. It allows the wood to absorb a greater amount of finishing products, which can provide added durability and extended lifespan for cladding.

Brushed

This texture is a hybrid between rough and sanded finishes. Using a metal brush, the softer parts of the wood are compressed, creating a beautiful textured relief.

Smooth

This option reveals the full beauty of the wood, allowing its natural grain patterns to show through.

Step 3 Select Your Finish

The finish you choose will influence not only the appearance of your cladding, but also the level of maintenance it requires. Several options are available—from Vintage Grey Plus, which requires no maintenance, to hybrid finishes offering a warranty of up to 15 years, as well as semi-transparent finishes that deliver irresistible beauty but require more regular upkeep.

Hybrid

An ideal solution for low-maintenance wood cladding. The hybrid finish captures the character of wood while providing superior, long-lasting protection.

Opaque

An ideal solution for low-maintenance wood cladding. The opaque finish offers an endless range of colors while providing superior, long-lasting protection.

Vintage Grey Plus

Ideal for cedar cladding, this aging product is a natural treatment that penetrates and activates the tannins present in the wood, creating a weathered wood effect in a short amount of time.

Semi-transparent

An ideal protective finish to showcase the full character of the wood. Penetrating oils with rich pigments deliver a deep, refined look to wood cladding.

Step 4 Select Your Color

Hybrid

The two-tone hybrid finish combines color and transparency to highlight the wood grain. Backed by a 15-year durability warranty and available in over 70 colors, it delivers the look of wood without the maintenance.

Opaque

The opaque finish delivers long-lasting color while preserving visible wood texture, backed by a 15-year warranty. Color options are virtually unlimited; however, darker shades may fade more quickly under sun exposure, especially on southwest-facing façades.
