Hard wax oil works by penetrating deep into the wood fibres. The oil component nourishes the wood, infusing it with moisture, while the wax component forms a resilient protective layer on the surface. This shield is highly resistant to scratches, stains, and wear, ensuring the longevity and durability of your timber surfaces.

What sets hard wax oil apart is its ability to let the wood breathe. Other finishes, such as polyurethane or lacquer, hard wax oil doesn’t create a plastic-like layer on the surface. This allows the wood to expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity without the risk of cracking or peeling. It’s a blend of protection and preservation.
