Hardwax Oil for Timber Floors & Interiors | Hardwood Floor Oil
Hardwood Floor Oil for Durable, Natural Timber Protection
Gilly’s Hardwax Oil is a premium hardwood floor oil designed to protect, seal, and enhance timber floors and interior wood surfaces. Made from renewable ingredients and free from toxic chemicals or synthetic resins, it penetrates deep into the timber while strengthening the surface for long-lasting durability.
Unlike traditional coatings that sit on top, this timber floor oil works from within the wood fibres to create a hard-wearing, breathable finish that won’t blister or peel. The result is a smooth, natural look with excellent resistance to everyday foot traffic, wear, and moisture.
Ideal for both floors and furniture, this natural hardwood floor oil offers high coverage, easy maintenance, and simple spot repairs without the need for sanding entire surfaces.

How to Apply
| Surface Prep |
Ensure surface is clean and dry. Best to strip any previous coatings before using for the first time. |
| Application |
This product is designed to bond with the timber fibres rather than ‘sitting’ on the surface, so each coat should be as thin as possible. Two coats should be all that is required. A third is optional and dependent on the timber/conditions. Wait 24 hours between coats. For large areas, the product can be thinned up to 20% for easier spreadability, with Gilly’s LoThin. The coverage is generously large – must be applied sparingly, as a little goes a long way. |
| Dry Time | 24 hours between coats. Allow longer in cold or humid conditions. Light use okay within 1 week – take care to avoid spills during this time. Full cure takes up to 4 weeks. |
| Coverage | Suggested coverage is 40 sqm p/L, though testing shows more should be achieved. Consider variances between soft and hard woods. Subsequent coats or maintenance coats will have much higher coverage. |
| Cleanup | Gilly’s LoThin, Gilly’s Liquid Soap. |
| Maintenance | Reassess the coating periodically. Generally, only spot repairs may be required, which can be achieved using the method detailed above. This coating will not blister or peel. Sanding won’t be required unless the timber is damaged. Use only light duty cleaners. Don’t allow water and spills to sit for too long. |
