Lifeline Interior Wood Finish is a water-based, semi-transparent stain that enhances the beauty of your interior logs and wood and seals out household odors and contaminants. Lifeline Interior can be used as a color coat or sealing coat when you want to apply an interior clear coat for additional protection or luster. Another advantage of interior finishes is that they leave a smooth finish that is easy to clean.
Lifeline Interior breathes to allow trapped moisture to evaporate from logs. While Lifeline Interior provides excellent UV protection, adding UV Boost to the first coat of Lifeline Interior significantly reduces the “picture frame effect” that can be caused in sun-exposed locations. Apply a durable clear topcoat of Lifeline Acrylic for additional protection and depth for your stain color.

- Excellent ultraviolet protection

IMPORTANT: Use Wet Samples to choose stain color.
Before purchasing stain, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND testing wet samples of the stain on your home in the color or colors that you are considering—for the following reasons:
- Stain color on your computer will look different on your home.
- The appearance of a stain color is affected by the wood being stained—due to factors such as wood species, texture, and porosity.
- Wet samples of stain are available at no or low cost.
- Choosing your stain color by first testing wet samples to know how it will really look on your home will ensure that you get the color that is just right for your home.
