Treatex Hardwax Oils

We appreciate that people have a look in mind for their home when purchasing doors but a lot of people also overlook the importance of choosing the correct treatment to achieve their desired interior appearance.

Treating your doors will significantly change their overall look so its vitally important that you perform a test to make sure you are using the correct shade before moving on to treat the whole door. Our Treatex oil sample in light oak gives you the chance to see whether you are happy with the appearance before purchasing a full tin.

After a significant amount of time testing different Oils, waxes and Hardwax oils we are pleased to recommend Treatex Hardwax Oil as our preferred method of finishing for our INTERNAL Oak Doors, the reason for this is simple, the finish is the best by far. As the Treatex range has a higher wax content than most on the market the wax will fill up the grain on the door providing a very smooth finish and at the same time helping to slow moisture transfer between wood and the atmosphere.

Treatex Hardwax Oil preserved and enhances the appearance of all types of internal joinery, manufactured on a base of natural and sustainable raw materials including: linseed oil, sunflower oil, beeswax, carnauba wax and candelilla wax.

Being a mix of Oil and Wax, the oil will soak into the wood enhancing the grain, the wax will sit on the surface and fill the grain, ensuring a smooth finish.

Application

Apply with a brush or lint free rag

Ready to use - you don't need to thin it, simply stir it well.

Apply the first coat thinly, thoroughly and evenly along the wood grain, removing any surplus immediately. Allow this coat to dry for at least 8-10 hours ensuring good ventilation. After applying the first coat if you do not achieve the desired finish you're after, we recommend applying a second coat ensuring the first coat is completely dry.

Next, apply two coats of Treatex Clear Matt using the same method as you used before. Again allow 8-10 hours for drying and ventilate between each layer.

When the door is thoroughly dry, you may buff or polish by hand or with a machine to enhance the sheen.
