Hardwax Oil for Durable, Natural Timber Protection

Gilly’s Hardwax Oil is a premium timber oil designed to protect, seal, and enhance timber furniture 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 wax/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 wooden furniture, cabinetry, tables, benchtops, doors + more. 100% natural, and VOC free, it's high coverage, easy maintenance, and spot repairs are simple.. no need to sand the entire surface in most cases.

Key Benefits

  • Premium hardwax oil for timber protection
  • Natural, durable, hard-wearing finish
  • Won’t blister, crack, or peel over time
  • Easy spot repair without full sanding
  • Sustainable, solvent-free and low-tox formulation
  • High coverage up to 40 sqm per litre

Ideal For

  • Interior timber
  • Furniture and cabinetry
  • Kitchen tables and benchtops
  • Doors, trims, and window frames
  • General interior wood finishing

Features

  • 100% natural formulation
  • Solvent-free
  • Contains carnauba wax and heat-treated oils
  • Easy maintenance and long-term protection

How to Apply

Surface Prep

Ensure surface is clean and dry. Best to strip any previous coatings before using for the first time.
Application
  1. Apply with a clean, lint-free cloth following the grain.
  2. Buff back with another lint-free cloth or buffind pads. A fine applicator pad can also be used, which may be easier.
  3. Allow to sit for 30 minutes, then firmly wipe over the entire area, buffing off any excess.

NOTE: The product can appear thick and gel like. A strong shake for 10-20 seconds, will make it fluid again.

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.
