Finishing Products
|
| |
|
Broadleaf recommend & stock the OSMO range of Waxoil finishes. These traditional style finishes, based natural oils & waxes, are easy to apply & maintain and are, in our opinion the best on the market. For advice on the pros and cons of Waxoil finishes click here

|
OSMO Polyx Oil is the original Hardwax Oil. It offers a traditional style satin matt finish which will patina with age and can be locally repaired. Clear in colour, it will bring out the natural tones of any timber and is stain and water resistant. Polyx Oil is available in 2.5l and 0.75l tins, with 2.5l covering 30m2 for 2 coats.
|
|
OSMO Wood Wax Finishes are a step up from conventional stains offering greater control over the depth of tone achieved. Walnut lightly applied is ideal for creating a slightly aged look, and Birch whitens timber for a more contemporary feel. Other colours include Cherry, Mahogony & Oak. These are all available in 2.5l and 0.75l tins, with 2.5l offering 50m2 coverage. When used on flooring, we recommend 2 coats of Polyx Oil to seal.
|
| |
|
 |
OSMO Thin Oil is used as an undercoat for Polyx Oil on timbers such as Rhodesian Teak and Merbau whose natural oil content causes them to resist finishing products. Thin oil is deep penetrating and offers a 'key' for Polyx Oil to be used as normal. Thin Oil is available in 2.5l and 0.75l tins, with 2.5l covering 40m2. |
