Wood care products for customers in West Yorkshire 

For all Your Interior and Exterior Woodcare Needs

Interior Woodcare
BEWARE: When finishing new interior woodwork - particularly laminate doors - do read the small print hidden in the fitting instructions first. They can be very specific about the type of woodstain, varnish or oil that can be used. Some specify water based products only, some say woodstain but not oil. Your guarantee will be invalid if you use the wrong one.

Taking the above into account, we stock a massive range of gloss, satin and matt woodstain, varnishes , dyes, waxes and oils from many leading manufacturers. Wax oils from Osmo, Sikkens TS Interior, ultra-tough two pack varieties from Rustins, Coo-Var yacht varnish, and of course the full range of Johnstones Trade Woodworks interior & exterior finishes.

To complement our woodcare offer we have fantastic woodfillers from Toupret, Filltite, Rustins & Brummer, as well as everything you need to prepare your woodwork and apply the finish to a professional standard.
Exterior Woodcare
It's biggest enemy is the sun. Clear finishes for outside use have improved a little over the years. Osmo UV Extra Protection Oil is one of the best but it's a high maintenance approach compared to a stained finish. The Sikkens Filter 7 system has long been held by top class decorators and carpenters as the best- but they don't make it in clear. The protection from bleaching and silvering is in the pigment.

We are not fans of using multiple coats of varnish on doors and windows. Water gets trapped behind it and black spots and rot result. The best finishes for outside use are both flexible and breathable like Osmo & Sikkens.

Traditional Primer/Undercoat/Gloss are now giving way to much longer lived flexible and breathable satin/gloss finishes in thousands of colours . Many of them are water  based and can outlast the more traditional oil based ones. We have a massive range of both in Johnstones Trade Stormsheild, Woodworks and The Little Greene. You can even paint those white UPVC windows whatever colour you like!
