Product Information

Treatex Hardwax Oil Natural can be used in two different ways:
1)  as a base coat which is designed to neutralise the colour change caused by applying Treatex Hardwax Oil Clear. To change the appearance of light coloured timbers such as oak as little as possible, brush (not roller) on a thin coat of Treatex Hardwax Oil Natural on to unfinished timber, before sealing with clear Treatex Hardwax Oil. Treatex Hardwax Oil Natural should not be used as a base coat on darker coloured timbers.
2)  as a top coat on top of our Spruce Colour Tone. For a whiter white seal our Spruce Colour Tone with two coats of Treatex Hardwax Oil Natural.

Preparation:   If the surface to be treated is rough or if a previous surface coating finish is present, sand to smooth bare wood with 80-120 grit sandpaper. Most previously oiled surfaces can be overcoated, without sanding. When overcoating a previously oiled surface a trail application is essential. Remove dust, dirt and any contaminates which may lead to uneven absorption of Treatex Hardwax Oil. Make sure the surface to be treated is thoroughly dry. Stir tin and ensure the product is at room temperature before use.

Application:
Method 1 – as a base coat. Treatex Hardwax Oil Natural should not be used as a base coat on darker coloured timbers. To change the appearance of light coloured timbers such as oak as little as possible, brush (not roller) on a thin coat of Treatex Hardwax Oil Natural. Allow to dry – maintaining warmth and ventilation will enable the surface to dry within 3-6 hours. Once dry, seal with two coats of Treatex Hardwax Oil Clear Matt, Satin or Gloss as described below.
Method 2 – as a top coat. For a whiter white seal our Spruce Colour Tone by using a brush or roller to evenly apply Treatex Hardwax Oil Natural allowing roughly 30g per m2. Allow to dry – maintaining warmth and ventilation will enable the surface to dry within 3-6 hours. Apply with a brush or roller a second coat of Treatex Hardwax Oil Natural, again allowing roughly 30g per m2. Allow to dry thoroughly overnight before the surface is lightly used. The surface will reach maximum hardness after a further 24 hours.
