Wood ReNew
Sodium Percarbonate Wood Cleaner and Restorer
Gray, weathered wood often needs more than routine washing. Renew wood finish projects excel after ultraviolet exposure changes the surface or stubborn discoloration remains after normal cleaning.
Wood ReNew restores exterior wood without relying on harsh chlorine bleach. It prepares surfaces for the next step while helping bring back a cleaner, more uniform appearance before refinishing.
The formula contains a thickener that helps it adhere to log walls and siding. Use it to return wood to its original natural color before applying any of our quality wood finishes.
Shop Available Sizes
Weathering affects every project differently. Renew wood finish is available in convenient purchasing options that help match the amount of cleaner to the condition and size of the surface being restored.

How to Store
Extended storage is common between restoration jobs. Reseal wood renewal products after use and keep the container upright to help preserve product consistency. Check the contents before the next project and mix if separation has occurred.
How to Apply
Coverage is easier to control on a thoroughly dampened surface. Apply renew wood finish evenly and let it fizz. That indicates an attack on dirt and grime. Wait ten minutes for the process to complete. Then, scrub the area and rinse thoroughly. Wood ReNew should not be used for spot cleaning since it may cause blotching of the surface.
Maintenance
Sun, rain, and shade affect walls in different ways. Walk around the home during routine exterior maintenance and watch for sections that begin losing a uniform appearance. Planning the next full cleaning before discoloration becomes widespread helps produce more consistent results.
