Free Samples

If you are interested in ordering our solid oak products but want to see and feel then before you do the best thing to do is visit our showroom in Hinckley, Leicestershire.

However we appreciate for many of you this is a long way to travel. As a substitute we are happy to send you a solid oak sample free of charge. The sample you receive will be taken from one of our doors, skirting or related products.

Please be aware as wood is a natural product there will be variations in both the colour and the grain.

Many of our customers order a sample with Treatex samples to test the colours against the wood. This can save you both time and money during the fitting process as you will already know what colour and how many coats you require.

After a significant amount of time testing different Oils, waxes and Hardwax oils we are pleased to recommend Treatex Hardwax Oil as our preferred method of finishing for our INTERNAL Oak Doors, the reason for this is simple, the finish is the best by far. As the treatex range has a higher wax content than most on the market the wax will fill up the grain on the door providing a very smooth finish and at the same time helping to slow moisture transfer between wood and the atmosphere.

Treatex Hardwax Oil preserved and enhances the appearance of all types of internal joinery, manufactured on a base of natural and sustainable raw materials including: linseed oil, sunflower oil, beeswax, carnauba wax and candelilla wax.

Being a mix of Oil and Wax, the oil will soak into the wood enhancing the grain, the wax will sit on the surface and fill the grain, ensuring a smooth finish.

Application

Apply with a brush or lint free rag

Ready to use - you don't need to thin it, simply stir it well.

Apply the 1st coat thinly, thoroughly and evenly along the wood grain, removing any surplus immediately. Allow this coat to dry for at least 8-10 hours ensuring good ventilation.

Apply the 2nd coat as you did the first - this coat will flow much easier than the first. Again allow 8-10 hours for drying and ventilate well.

When the door is thoroughly dry, you may buff or polish by hand or with a machine to enhance the sheen.
