Very Satisfied Customer - A-Chem's "Timbashield Solvent Based Wood Stain Products"

Very Satisfied Returning Customer - My 3rd lot of "Timbashield Solvent Based Wood Stain - Mahogany". Fantastic Product. Applies well and looks great. Used it on my Summer House, Bike Shed, Lawn Mower Shed & Decking edge border late Summer 2020. This was it's 2nd lot of two coats as all 3 buildings came pre stained (sprayed) with this product when installed in my garden October 2016.

Just brought another so I can re-stain the decking where it has been worn down over the last 3 years.
You can spray it on or just use a brush like I do. On vertical surfaces just remember not to put too much on the brush and start from the top and work your way down. The product penetrates the wood well and dries quite quickly. All my 3 buildings are almost 5 years old and with this Product still look Brand New.
I also used Timbashield Solvent Wood Stain - Mahogany on a hard wood chair rocker and garden bench. Both came up better than I expected then finished them off a week later with a coat of teak Oil.

I totally recommend Timbashield Solvent Based Wood Stain - Mahogany if you want a great finish that protects the wood and lasts ages and does not peel.
In the past I have also bought "Timbashield Wood Stain - Light Oak" and that gives a brilliant finish too, but it can give a darker result on new pine wood, but I have this nailed down now with some mixing/dilution of the Light Oak.

On application it does smell, but over a short time this goes away. Very water repellent.
Our neighbours always remark how good our buildings and decking look, even after a long hard winter.

First class delivery service from Timbashield - Now my one stop shop for all my Wood Staining and Protection needs. Mahogany is my Favourite and I just love it's warm golden look.

Thank You Timbashield Guys.

Kind Regards, DaveG, Telford, Shropshire

Excellent company …

Very quick process from order to delivery. Although I received the wrong paint brushes, the correct ones were sent next day. I cannot fault the service given.
