Pika-Pika – Linseed Oil Natural
Exterior
DESCRIPTION
Our Pika-Pika® yakisugi “shou sugi ban” products receive a double brushing to remove all loose soot. This reveals a textured wood surface with striped grain patterns. We then apply a natural linseed oil prefinish prior to shipment. This combination is only suitable for exterior installations.
FINISH DETAILS
Linseed Oil Natural
Our semi-transparent linseed oil stains are designed to balance raw, natural beauty with color longevity. These finishes absorb into the wood, to condition and enhance the grain. Linseed oil coatings are an excellent choice for owners who want to enjoy the inherent beauty of wood as it weathers. Organic fading and patina develop over time. The siding can either be left to weather, or it can be recoated with oil to freshen up the color, as desired. Delivered ready to install.
Patina Scale: 6
The Patina Scale has been developed by Nakamoto Forestry to approximate how its products will weather over time—from 0 (“less patina/more color longevity”) to 10 (“less color longevity/more patina”). However, every product weathers at a different rate due to local conditions, and the Patina Scale is intended as general guidance only, and is solely for informational purposes. Nakamoto Forestry makes no guarantees, representations, or warranties, express or implied, regarding the appearance or color longevity of its products after installation.

MAINTENANCE
This is a maintenance-optional siding product. We include touchup oil to match face color on end cuts, notches, and rips. Yakisugi should never be scraped, sanded, or pressure washed. A very weak TSP or soap solution, neutral pH cleaner, or simply clean water can be applied with a cloth or soft brush to wash off pollen, dirt, and dust. Exterior siding should be hosed down regularly to keep the appearance fresh and clean. For more detailed installation and maintenance guidance, see our Installation Guidelines.
