The brief answer to this question is that the very best finish for Jarrah depends on the look that you want to achieve.

OSMO POLYX

If you’re looking for low maintenance and really good color development and a very easy natural look, then the very best finish available for Jarrah is Osmo Oil, specifically Osmo Polyx. This is a tough, durable and easy to maintain finish.

Bona Traffic HD

BONA HD TRAFFIC

If you’re looking for a more traditional poly look, but with less yellowing than the old-fashioned solvent-based coatings, then the very best finish for Jarrah is made by a company called Bona, Bona Traffic HD Satin. This is a durable, heavy-duty waterborne finish.

SIEGELCOAT 2K

And if you’re looking for a higher build finish, one that perhaps is a glossier finish, then SiegelCoat 2K waterborne is the finish to choose from.

Summary

All of these finishes have pros and cons, but each of them stand as the very best finish of their type.

In hardwax oils, nothing is better than Osmo.

In waterborne finishes, then nothing is better than choosing a 2K finish. Bona Traffic HD Satin is a 2K finish, and SiegelCoat 2K is also a 2K finish, though with a slightly different look.

As always, at VCS, we invite you to come into the showroom and view examples of these products so that you can see for yourself how the different looks appear in natural light, as well as understanding the pros and cons of ongoing maintenance.
