Sugi – Weathering Stain Silver
Exterior
DESCRIPTION
Our Sugi siding and paneling is sawn from straight, high-grade Japanese logs that are graded for color and grain. Substitute on projects where North American cedar or cypress are specified. Our unique silver weathering stain is designed to mimic the look of aged, silver wood, with coloring that will continue to change and patina over time. This combination is only suitable for exterior installations.
FINISH DETAILS
Weathering Stain
Our silver weathering stain is based on the Cape Cod gray aesthetic. It is designed to be maintenance-free as it develops a bleached coastal patina over time. This coating has two components. The first is a binder-free silver pigment that will wash off within the first year. The second is a mineral that reacts with tannic acid in the wood to develop a natural silver color. Delivered ready to install.
Patina Scale: 9
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.
CONSIDERATIONS
- This siding product has a unique living finish (AKA “patina”).
- Designed to weather from pigmented silver to faded silver over time.
- Due to its composition, the factory silver stain may appear uneven in color and tone.
- Alternate for many cedar or cypress specifications.
