Wood can have colour - and still remain wood.
Three functions. One product. OLI-NATURA® COLOUR hardwax oil is a pigmented oil-wax combination. Plant-based oils impregnate the wood from within, carnauba wax provides additional surface protection, and lightfast colour pigments create a natural, transparent colour effect.
Colour and protection in one application. Open-pore, robust and without a lacquer character - for natural wood surfaces indoors.
Which types of wood and applications is OLI-NATURA® COLOUR hardwax oil suitable for?
OLI-NATURA® COLOUR hardwax oil is the right choice when the colour of the wood is to be changed and protected at the same time - without prior staining and subsequent separate final treatment. This saves an additional application step.
Whether furniture, dining tables, kitchen worktops, stairs, doors, wall panelling or windowsills - the pigmented hardwax oil is suitable for almost all types of wood and wood-based materials indoors, including solid wood, glued laminated timber, veneer, plywood, multiplex, OSB, bamboo and cork.
Do light woods need to remain as light as possible? Cotton White reduces the natural intensifying effect and yellowish tinge - ideal for a light Scandinavian look. Light White also visibly lightens the wood. For colourless protection, OLI-NATURA® hardwax oil Natural is the right choice.
What does wood look like after applying OLI-NATURA® COLOUR hardwax oil?
The natural wood appearance is retained. The grain and structure remain visible and tactile - only the colour changes.
The final colour effect results from the interaction between the wood and the oil. The type of wood, its natural colour and the sanding determine how the same colour will look later. A sample surface on the original wood therefore shows the colour most reliably. All colours are also available as samplers.
Cotton White reduces the natural intensifying effect and yellowish tinge on light woods. Light White also visibly lightens the wood. Dark colours appear more intense on light woods, while light colours appear correspondingly more subtle on dark woods. All colours can be mixed with one another and individually softened with OLI-NATURA® hardwax oil Natural. A second application intensifies the colour effect; with OLI-NATURA® hardwax oil Natural, it is retained.
Lightfast colour pigments slow down the natural colour change of the wood caused by UV light and help maintain the colour effect for as long as possible.
How easy is OLI-NATURA® COLOUR hardwax oil to apply?
It is easy to apply evenly. One application is usually sufficient for furniture. A second application is recommended for stairs and heavily used worktops - without intermediate sanding.
Hardwax oil is not lacquer. Apply thinly - that is sufficient. The surface is hard-wearing, dirt- and water-repellent, and easy to maintain. Scratches and signs of use can be repaired locally or simply refreshed at any time - without sanding. The oil does not crack, peel or flake. If the colour is to be retained, the second application should be made with OLI-NATURA® hardwax oil Natural.
What can you rely on with OLI-NATURA® COLOUR hardwax oil?
Once fully cured, the surface is harmless to people, animals and plants. It remains open-pore and breathable, supporting a pleasant indoor climate. Suitable for children's toys. For kitchen worktops, OLI-NATURA® hardwax oil Natural is recommended as the final coat.
