Woca Wood Lye

Pre-treating surfaces with WOCA Wood Lye provides effective protection against yellowing caused by UV rays. It bleaches woods like maple, ash,
oak, beech, and birch, protecting them against yellowing.

Treatment using Woca Wood Lye also opens up the pores in the wood, allowing it to fully absorb the pigments in a later basic treatment with white oil in a way that looks especially gorgeous. Available in White or Grey – using Wood Lye Grey gives Colour Oil 314 Extra Grey or 114 Grey even greater color intensity when applied afterwards.

The product is recommended for its organic qualities that meet high healthy living standards, so you can use it to treat worktops, Kitchen surfaces, and even children's toys without any worries.
