Most oil-based wood sealers have petroleum solvents that are hazardous. Rubio's Hybrid is the first zero VOC oil-based finish to raise the bar and offer long-lasting wood protection without the off-gassing of toxic chemicals.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRubio's Hybrid Wood Protector is a one part system and requires no catalyst*.

This is a translucent stain. It comes in 20 beautiful colors.
