Xyladecor Tuinhoutbeits – Fence stain for rough garden wood

Xyladecor Tuinhoutbeits is a water-based, quick-drying stain specifically developed for protecting and colouring rough wood. It provides a weather-resistant finish that allows the wood to breathe.

Description

Xyladecor Tuinhoutbeits is the ideal choice for those looking for an efficient and budget-friendly way to enhance and protect large surfaces of rough wood. This stain is specifically intended for treating garden screens, wooden partitions, and fences. Unlike lacquers that form a thick film, this stain partially penetrates the fibres of the rough wood, preserving the natural texture without the risk of peeling.

Thanks to its water vapour permeable formula, moisture within the wood can escape, reducing the risk of wood rot. Furthermore, the stain is very user-friendly: it is virtually odourless, dries very quickly, and can even be applied directly over older layers of carbolineum. This makes it the perfect solution for refreshing aged wooden fences. We would even go as far as to say that Tuinhoutbeits is the ultimate favourite for rough wooden partitions and fencing.

Frequently Asked Questions

For which projects can I use Xyladecor Tuinhoutbeits?
This Tuinhoutbeits is the best stain for partitions and fences made of rough wood. Garden screens can also be perfectly refreshed with this stain. Which projects do we advise against? Horizontal surfaces such as garden furniture and terraces should be avoided. For those, you are better off using Garden Furniture Oil and Terrace Oil.

How many coats do I need for a good result?
For an even colour and solid protection, it is best to apply 2 to 3 coats on untreated wood. For the maintenance of previously treated wood, 1 to 2 coats are usually sufficient. Please note: never let your wood turn completely grey, as this requires a lot of extra work. If you apply a fresh coat regularly and on time, your fence can last a lifetime.

What is the best way to apply Xyladecor Tuinhoutbeits?
Ensure the surface is free from dust and loose particles. Stir the stain well. Apply the stain generously with a flat brush. Since the stain is intended for rough wood, a brush works best to push the stain into all cracks and grains. Always stain in the direction of the wood grain.

Do I need to pre-treat the wood against wood rot?
While the stain protects against weather influences, it does not contain biocides. For complete protection against fungi and rot on new wood, we recommend a coat of Xyladecor Tuinhoutbeschermer as a primer. If your wood has been treated before, this base coat is, of course, not necessary.

Which colours are available for Xyladecor Tuinhoutbeits?
This stain is available in classic wood tones that fit perfectly in a natural garden environment, such as Light Oak, Rustic Oak, and Pine Green. Keep in mind that the colour often turns out slightly darker on rough wood than on a sample, as rough wood absorbs more product.

Why choose Tuinhoutbeits instead of Tuinhoutolie (Garden Wood Oil)?
The main difference lies in the substrate. Tuinhoutbeits is the champion for rough wood (unplaned) and large surfaces like long fences. It is more economical and specifically made for the coarse structure of this type of wood. However, if you have smooth, planed wood, then an oil like Xyladecor Tuinhoutolie is the better choice.
