Rubio WoodCream is a breathable hydrophobic wax-based cream that colours and protects wood and makes it water-repellent. The hydrophobic Rubio WoodCream technology in combination with its unique cream structure offers both on product as on application level important benefits. This moisture-regulating cream provides a water-repellent and self-cleaning wood protection. The long contact technology ensures a perfect absorption of the cream into the wood’s pores, without covering them, thus ensuring the wood’s natural moisture balance and structure.
Rubio WoodCream gives wood surfaces a semi-transparent, aged, or covering look and is available in 3 colour collections: The Grey Collection, The Traditional Collection, and The Scandinavian Collection. A transparent version (#0) is also available in order to create a noncoloured effect. While this version has no UV-filter it allows the wood to age naturally, but it still protects the wood and makes it water-repellent.

Depending on the chosen colour, wood type and orientation of the vertical wood, the colour will last between 5 to 10 years. After about 5 years, the pearl effect (water-beading) will gradually diminish.
If you want to decrease the colour intensity of the existing Rubio WoodCream colours, you can dilute them with Rubio WoodCream Softener.

· The pearl effect makes the surface self-cleaning
· The water-repellent and self-cleaning effect reduce the risk of micro-organism growth (algae, molds, fungi) and frost damage
· Breathable and moisture-regulating
· The wood pores remain open; this allows the wood to breath and guarantees an optimal moisture-regulation
· Cream structure
· Penetrates deep into the subsoil
· Low usage: 50 to 80 g/m² per layer, depending on the absorption of the substrate
· Easy to apply on all vertical wooden surfaces
· Easier to apply on other paint systems and surfaces than other paints and wood treatment products (no dripping, no masking tape, easy to apply overhead)
· Can be applied in 1 or 2 layers depending on the look you want
