wood treatment
e.g. of facade / cladding.
Possibly slightly general; there may be a more specific term.

--------------------------------------------------
I see from your next question that it does indeed include the façade of the building, along with window frames, etc.
It is a kind of protective treatment/coating, e.g. varnishing.

--------------------------------------------------
That said, the coating would appear to penetrate the surface of the wood more deeply than normal varnish, so wood staining could be more appropriate.
e.g.

"Lasure spéciale pour intérieur/extérieur"
"Couche de finition pour l’intérieur et l’extérieur, imperméable à
l’eau, aux intempéries. Pénètre en profondeur, élastique."
