Key Features

Fast-Acting Restoration in Just 15 Minutes

Cuprinol's advanced formula penetrates weathered wood to remove surface greying, revealing the natural wood grain and tone beneath — all in just 15 minutes.

Restores Original Wood Colour

Perfect for restoring the natural appearance of hardwoods like teak, eucalyptus, and acacia, this restorer removes UV and moisture damage and enhances the wood’s original hue, preparing it for further treatment or simply revitalising its beauty.

Ideal Pre-Treatment Before Oiling or Staining

Using this restorer before applying Cuprinol Garden Furniture Oil, stain, or varnish ensures better absorption and a longer-lasting finish. It cleans and opens the wood’s surface, allowing treatment products to penetrate more deeply.

Simple Application with No Special Tools

Apply with a standard paint brush and work into the surface using a stiff bristle brush or mild abrasive pad. No complicated equipment or professional tools required.

Eco-Sensitive Cleaning – No Pressure Washer Needed

The gel-based formula is designed for manual rinse-off with water using a garden hose or watering can. This ensures effective removal of the restorer without damaging the wood grain as pressure washers sometimes can.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use this on softwood or only hardwood?

This product is designed specifically for hardwood garden furniture, which tends to grey more visibly. It is not recommended for softwoods.

How soon after using this can I apply oil or stain?

Allow the wood to dry for at least 16 hours after rinsing before applying any finishing product like oil or stain.

What happens if I leave the restorer on too long?

Leaving the restorer on beyond the recommended 15 minutes can damage or dry out the wood. Always follow the timing carefully and rinse promptly.

Do I need to scrub hard?

Moderate scrubbing with a mild abrasive pad or stiff brush is recommended to work the gel into the grain and remove the grey layer. Avoid overly aggressive scrubbing.

Can I use a pressure washer to rinse the wood?

No. The product is not designed for use with pressure washers as they can damage the wood surface. Use a watering can or garden hose for a gentle but thorough rinse.

Does this product protect the wood after use?

This is a restorer, not a treatment. It does not leave a protective layer. For protection, follow up with Cuprinol Garden Furniture Oil or Wood Preserver once dry.

One litre covers up to 8 square metres, depending on the wood’s absorbency and condition.
