A Transparent Color Natural Wood Finish

This wood finish adds a transparent color finish to interior wood. It's suitable for the following interior applications: wall paneling, molding, trim and beams as well as doors. You can also use it for edge-glued panels, chipboard and MDF. Ideal as a color base coat for wood floors and for re-finishing darkened wood surfaces. We also recommend it for furniture and children’s toys, as it is non-toxic and sweat and saliva-resistant once completely dry.

Unlike other wood finishes, no sanding is needed to touch up this finish, and it won't crack, peel or flake. Choose this finish for truly low maintenance and the natural look and feel of plant oils and waxes.
