Colron has a long history of producing traditional wood finishes, furniture polishes and repair products. The range includes products for colouring, finishing, cleaning and maintaining wooden furniture and other suitable timber surfaces.

At Priory Polishes, our Colron range includes Danish oil, wood dye, beeswax, wax polish, liming wax, finishing wax, antique oil, teak oil and wax remover, together with products for repairing scratches, ring marks and other minor damage.

Colron Danish Oil

Colron Danish Oil is a popular wood finishing oil available in clear and tinted colours. It can be used on suitable interior and exterior wood, making it useful for furniture, joinery and other timber projects where an oil finish is required.

The tinted versions can add colour while allowing the natural character of the timber to remain visible. Always check the product instructions and test the colour on a small area before treating the whole surface.

Colron Wood Dye

Colron Wood Dye is available in a range of traditional wood colours for adding or changing colour on suitable bare timber. Colours include shades such as Antique Pine, Teak, American Walnut, Deep Mahogany and Jacobean Dark Oak.

Wood dye can be useful when restoring furniture, matching repaired areas or changing the colour of timber before applying a compatible protective finish.

Colron Beeswax and Wax Polish

Colron Beeswax is available in a selection of colours and can be used to nourish and enhance suitable wooden surfaces. It is particularly useful when you want to add colour as well as a traditional wax finish.

Colron Wax Polish is designed for cleaning, reviving and improving the appearance of previously finished interior wood. It can be used over compatible finishes such as French polish, wax, varnish or oil.

Colron Finishing Wax

Colron Finishing Wax is a clear paste wax made with natural waxes including beeswax and carnauba wax. It can be used to provide a soft sheen and protection to suitable wooden furniture and timber surfaces.

For previously finished furniture, it can be useful as a final finishing and maintenance product. Always test compatibility before applying wax over an existing finish.

Colron Liming Wax

Colron Liming Wax is used to create a traditional limed effect on suitable interior wood and furniture. It works particularly well on open-grained timber such as oak, where the grain can help create the characteristic limed appearance.

Liming wax can be used on furniture, shelving, panelling and doors where a lighter decorative finish is required.

Colron Antique Oil and Teak Oil

Colron Antique Oil is a wood finishing oil designed to produce a soft sheen on suitable timber. It is intended for interior wood and can be used on bare wood and certain previously oiled or stained surfaces, subject to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Colron Teak Oil provides another option for treating suitable hardwood and timber surfaces. Always check the individual product instructions to ensure the oil is appropriate for the wood and intended application.

Colron Wax Remover

Colron Wax Remover is designed to help remove old traditional finishes from wood, including accumulated wax and other compatible finishes. It can be useful when preparing furniture for further restoration or refinishing.

When working on antique or valuable furniture, take care when removing an existing finish, as the original surface and patina may be important to the character of the piece. Test any cleaning or stripping product in an inconspicuous area first.

Colron Furniture Repair Products

Our Colron range also includes products for dealing with minor marks and damage to wooden furniture. Colron Liquid Scratch Cover is available in different shades for helping to disguise scratches, scuffs and marks, while Colron Ring Remover is designed for treating suitable ring and water marks.

Colron Wood Reviver can also be used as part of furniture maintenance where an existing wood finish needs cleaning and refreshing.

Choosing the Right Colron Product

The best Colron product depends on the condition of the timber and the finish you want to achieve. For colouring bare wood, consider Colron Wood Dye or a tinted beeswax. For an oil finish, Colron Danish Oil or another suitable Colron wood oil may be appropriate. For maintaining or finishing furniture, the waxes and liquid polish provide different options depending on whether the wood is bare or already finished.

Always check the individual product instructions and test on a small, inconspicuous area before treating the entire surface, particularly when restoring antique or valuable furniture.
