For the last 50 years, Synteko's Swedish finish known as "Classic" has withstood the test of time and set the benchmark for excellence, that no other solvent-based finish can match. Synteko's Classic system provides a unique combination of durability, scratch and scuff resistance, clarity and grain definition. The Classic system also provides unsurpassed beauty, bringing out the natural colour of your wood floor.

Classic is a sophisticated product that can be coated over all new timber floors instead of tung oil based finishes without the incidence of edge bonding or rejection. This is commonly experienced with oily timbers such as Brush box. In addition a further advantage is the low maintenance cost associated with polyurethane type finishes.

The oily nature of wood poses multiple floor finish dilemmas. The first of which is adhesion compatibility. Cohesion must exist between the high-content natural oil in the wood and the finish applied. If such a bond is not established, the finish can peel.

The second dilemma, drying time, must also be considered. The chemical make-up of various woods such as Brush box, Tallowwood, Turpentine and even Cypress Pine may adversely react with certain types of finish, causing intolerably long drying times coupled with rejection, bubbles and pimpling.

The third dilemma is colour. Most likely, customers will not understand that colour change is innate and not necessarily a consequence of finish application. However, many floor coating finishes will create reactions within the wood resulting in colour change. For example, polyurethane or tung oil based finish will, over time, cause Brush box and Jarrah to go yellow and Blackbutt and Tasmanian Oak to go copper brown. Therefore, the wrong type of finish can truly alter the overall appearance of the floor.
