Hej
Ursäkta jag skriver detta mejl på engelska - jag är en nybörjare på svenska.
We have moved into a house in Skåne (so a damp climate) that has clear/unpainted pine windows
I am guessing they need to be sanded, oiled and lacquered each season?
Can someone recommend which products to use on the windows each season here in Sweden?
Tack på förhand!
Stuart

I would go to a paintstore and ask them what they think 
Maybe not the answer you wore hoping for, but I am pretty sure they know what's best.
I would try "Nordsjö idé & design". They are a PRO-store, great products and pricey.

Here are two choises of different brands:

http://www.cuprinol.se/produkter/outdoor/dorr-och-fonsterfarg-v/
I have only used Alcro myself.
Go to a real paint shop and the will help you with oil, tools and all you will need.
And welcome to the Bygga Hus-forum Stuart!
PS
Right now it is probably much too humid to do outdoor painting.
You had better wait a cople of months before you start.

Tack för alla svar och rad - och den varma välkommen!
If the windows are unpainted, (and not brand new), they have probably been treated with oil every seson. It is a solution if one does not want painted windows. The oil to use is okokt/rå linolja.
If you want to paint the windows I suggest to use linoljefärg. It is an old classic, and still the best in my view.
Linolja and linoljefärg and knowledge about how to use them is provided by f ex Ottossons (https://ottossonfarg.com/). You can also try with byggnadsvård (google).

Oldboy is right. He's not only old, he's wise as well.
