Evolution Hardwax Oil to Replace Treatex from Whittle WaxesI've used Treatex Colour Tones and Hardwax Oils in the past, what do I use to replace it? We have discontinued the Treatex Traditional range and are concentrating on our superior Evolution product range. Everything evolves over time - including our products! For over 15 years, our customers have been enjoying the benefits of our Treatex Traditional Hardwax Oils, but many of you will also be familiar with our more recently introduced Evolution Hardwax Oil range, also created by Treatex. Treatex Traditional Hardwax Oil had three sheen levels to choose from, Evolution offers four. How do they match up? From lowest sheen to highest in each product range
Evolution Matte Hardwax Oil is in a category of its own, it's a beautiful flat matte, combined with our Raw Stains and our Natural Stain, and it literally looks like the timber has nothing on it, and keeps that light freshly sanded look. Evolution Gloss Hardwax Oil is also in a category of its own, it's a slightly higher sheen than Satin, but doesn't have the glaring shininess of what we expect from a glossy product. Colours The main difference between the two ranges of colours, Evolution and Treatex, is that Treatex is the flammable version, but also the Evolution Colours are easier to work with. Evolution offers ten colours to choose from, whereas Treatex had eight. All of the Evolution colours can be intermixed to create your own personalized colour. Please note these colours do not exactly match the Treatex Colours. Also please keep in mind the colour and species of the timber will affect how the colour will appear. The sanding technique will also affect the colour. We always advise to do a sample test first, sample tins are available on our website.
