CUTEK Extreme High Performance Oil-Based Wood Stabilizer

CUTEK Extreme High Performance Wood Oil represents a breakthrough in wood protection, offering homeowners an innovative oil-based solution that penetrates deep into wood fibers to provide unmatched stability and beauty enhancement.

Revolutionary Self-Healing Wood Protection

CUTEK Extreme stands apart from traditional wood coatings through its unique self-healing properties. Unlike conventional stains and sealers that sit on the surface and eventually crack, peel, or flake, this advanced formula diffuses throughout the wood structure, creating a protective barrier that adapts and responds to environmental changes.

Applied as a clear oil, CUTEK Extreme will allow wood to naturally silver over time. Mixing in one of the 18 CUTEK Colortones will help to enhance and maintain the freshly oiled natural look of your wood or alter your wood color to meet your design requirements. 

Note: sold in both single and double strength. Single strength comes with one tube of colorant and double strength comes with two tubes of colorant. Check color chart to select your desired color and strength.

Key Performance Benefits:

• Deep Penetration Technology - Migrates deep into wood fibers for comprehensive protection from within
• Zero Flaking or Peeling - Self-healing formula eliminates the frustration of surface coating failures
• Dimensional Stability Control - Minimizes warping, cupping, and splitting by managing moisture movement
• Natural Beauty Enhancement - Highlights wood grain and texture while maintaining authentic appearance
• Extended Service Life - Significantly improves wood longevity through superior moisture management
• Simplified Maintenance - No sanding or stripping required for reapplication

Advanced Moisture Management System

The science behind CUTEK Extreme lies in its ability to control both liquid and gas phase moisture within wood. This dual-phase protection system prevents the dimensional changes that cause wood to warp, cup, and split over time. By stabilizing the wood's moisture content, CUTEK Extreme maintains the structural integrity of your wood surfaces, whether they're decking, siding, fencing, or outdoor furniture.

Climate-Tested Durability: Originally developed in Australia for extreme weather conditions, CUTEK Extreme has proven its effectiveness against harsh UV radiation, temperature fluctuations, and moisture variations. This real-world testing ensures reliable performance in diverse climates, from humid coastal regions to dry inland areas.

Customizable Color Enhancement with CUTEK Colortones

CUTEK Extreme offers unprecedented flexibility in achieving your desired wood appearance. Applied as a clear oil, it allows wood to develop a natural silver patina over time. For those preferring to maintain or enhance wood color, the system includes 18 CUTEK Colortones that can be mixed directly into the base oil.

Colortone System Advantages:

• Transparent Color Technology - Enhances rather than hides natural wood characteristics
• UV Protection Enhancement - Colortones provide additional protection against sun damage
• Natural Fade Pattern - Colors gradually fade rather than peel, maintaining aesthetic appeal
• Double Strength Option - Two colortones per gallon provide richer color and enhanced UV protection
• Grain Visibility - Knots, grain patterns, and natural wood variations remain visible
• Design Flexibility - Alter wood color to match specific design requirements

Professional-Grade Application Process

CUTEK Extreme's application system is designed for homeowner success while delivering professional results. The two-step process ensures optimal penetration and long-lasting protection.

Step 1: Surface Preparation Proper preparation is essential for maximum performance. Wood surfaces must be clean, dry, and free from contaminants. The moisture content should be below 17% for optimal penetration. Remove any existing coatings, dirt, or chemical residues that could interfere with oil absorption.

Step 2: Protection Application Apply CUTEK Extreme in thin, even coats using a brush or paint pad applicator. The key to success lies in applying multiple thin coats rather than single thick applications. For new construction, apply one coat to all wood faces before installation, followed by a second coat to exposed surfaces after construction completion.

Drying and Penetration Process: Unlike surface coatings that dry quickly, CUTEK Extreme requires 3-5 days of dry conditions for complete penetration and diffusion. This extended process allows the oil to migrate throughout the wood structure, creating comprehensive protection. The wood will feel non-greasy when ready for additional coats.

Long-Term Performance and Maintenance

CUTEK Extreme's unique formulation continues providing protection even as surface appearance changes over time. The oil remains active within the wood structure, maintaining dimensional stability and moisture resistance regardless of surface weathering.

Maintenance Advantages:

• No Sanding Required - Simply clean and reapply when surface renewal is desired
• No Stripping Necessary - New coats penetrate and blend with existing protection
• Flexible Timing - Reapplication based on appearance preference rather than protection failure
• Continued Protection - Wood remains protected even if surface shows weathering
• Easy Equipment Cleanup - Tools clean with mineral spirits, soap and water, or CUTEK Quickclean

Ideal Applications and Wood Types

CUTEK Extreme performs exceptionally across various wood species and applications. Dense hardwoods benefit from the deep penetration technology, while softer woods gain enhanced dimensional stability. The system works effectively on both new and weathered wood surfaces.

Recommended Uses:

• Exterior decking and boardwalks
• Siding and cladding systems
• Fencing and privacy screens
• Outdoor furniture and structures
• Pergolas and gazebos
• Dock and marine applications
