Perfect for flooring where matte is deemed as leaving a lustre deemed too raw or where you wish to have the appearance of a finish with minimal sheen on furniture. What is a Hardwax Oil? It is a relatively new product, far more commonly used in Europe but is gaining in popularity here in Australia. Originally marketed as a flooring finish, hardwax oils are taking the high-end furniture industry by storm due to its many positive properties. As the name suggests, it is a combination of wax and oil. Neither of these finishes produce a strong hard wearing film on the surface on their own. Hardwax Oil is an oil based finish that soaks in, lightly colours the wood and forms a protective film on the surface of the wood. It’s for applications where the end user wants a more natural wood finish while also having some sort of protective layer on the surface. Its also for those working with timber that want a beautiful, long-lasting, hard wearing, yet easy-to-apply natural finish. Main Benefits: Extremely high coverage rates, approximately 30m2 per litre!
