Maximum 2 coats recommended. Apply at room temperature. Fiddes Hard Wax Oil is formulated for application directly, and does not require thinning. |

FIDDES Ultra Raw
Hard Wax Oil
Fiddes Ultra Raw Hard Wax Oil offers a dead flat-matt ‘raw timber’ effect, with minimal colour change.
Formulated to maintain the natural appearance of untreated wood, Ultra Raw Hard Wax Oil retains this lighter tone, counteracting the ‘wet look’ commonly associated with traditional oil, wax or resin based finishes.
Perfect for lighter coloured woods such as Pine, Oak and Maple.
