At LIGNA®, we’re passionate about protecting and enhancing wood surfaces. Whether for interior or exterior projects, our traditional oils are designed to meet specific needs, combining effectiveness, durability and ease of application. We offer a wide range of products, each with its own unique characteristics, to provide optimum protection for every situation. Let’s find out what makes TANDEM-1, TANDEM-2, EXTERIA and HYBRI-DECK so special, and why they could be the ideal choice for your next project.
Why TANDEM-1?
TANDEM-1 stain is our most economical solution for staining wood surfaces. Unlike our monocoat oils, although available in the same shades, TANDEM-1 penetrates deeper into the wood, giving a richer, more intense colour. This stain is not a finish in itself, as it does not seal the wood. However, it can be covered with a traditional, monocoat oil, or even a water-based varnish for a complete finish.
Without minimizing the advantages of water-based stains, we’d like to point out that TANDEM-1 is easier to apply, as it leaves no overlap marks. It can also be used before a monocoat oil to intensify or adjust your shades. For example, using Ebony shade under Bleached color creates a black with subtle white and gray undertones. What’s more, TANDEM-1 is more economical than a monocoat finishing oil for simple tinting.
Why TANDEM-2?
Although we have developed a range of high-quality monocoat products, we also wanted to include a traditional oil in our range to meet the needs of certain customers. The result is TANDEM-2. This oil is more liquid and malleable than our monocoat oils, making it ideal for overlaying on our interior oils.
TANDEM-2 is also more economical in terms of volume and application. It is perfect for those who want to add a single coat of refresh over a LIGNA® oil, without any additional complications. It’s easy to apply, making it a flexible and practical choice.
