Frequently asked questions – wood finishing
Oil, wax or lacquer – which to choose?
Oil penetrates the wood, keeps a natural look and is easy to renew. Lacquer forms a hard film with maximum mechanical resistance. Wax gives decorative items a silky surface. For demanding surfaces, consider a 9H ceramic coating as well.
What is the right exterior wood finish?
Outdoor wood needs UV protection and water repellency – use exterior oils (Hybrid Wood Protector, SunShield) or glazes. Clean and de-grey the surface before finishing.
How do I treat wood that touches food?
Treat cutting boards and kitchen utensils with food-contact certified oils and waxes – mineral oil, beeswax or certified hardwax oils.
