Choosing the right finishing products is crucial for a project involving a watercraft. It is recommended to take the necessary time to choose recognized brand products that have proven their effectiveness. It is important to consider the long-term resistance of the finish as well as its ease of maintenance. 

The first step is to apply a potential coloration, in this case a stain or a tinted oil with UV resistance should be chosen. If a tinted oil is selected, it is essential that it does not contain wax, which is a contaminant for all coating products used for finishing.
