One of the most unique coatings available. This product is designed to maintain the natural look of timber and is applied as a very thin coat. It uses a small amount of white pigment to neutralize the sort of look that can develop in timber as it yellows. Obviously, all timbers when exposed to light tend to yellow to some degree but raw can offset this to a noticeable extent.

Retain the natural appearance of light colored timber.

Additional Advice:

Polyx®-Oil Raw is a priming oil designed to reduce/slow down the natural yellowing of timber. Polyx®-Oil Raw contains a small quantity of white pigment, which counters this yellowing of the wood’s colour, leaving the surface looking as near to natural as possible.

One thin coat will keep the timber looking “Raw” as though it had nothing on it. For interior use only. It’s uses include wooden flooring and wall paneling, and furniture. It is only suitable for use on light coloured wood species such as oak, pine, spruce, blackbutt and tasmanian oak etc.

It is not recommended for use on dark timbers such as some rimu, jarrah and kwila, as it may give a chalky appearance to the timber.
