Jax Oleum

Jax Oleum Single Coat Oil-Based Wood Stain. Protects, nourishes and colors wood in one easy application. We love wood! Jax Oleum is incredibly effective and highly durable.

That is why we’ve committed years of research into a new product that we’re particularly proud to launch – Jax Oleum. Whether it’s kept in its natural state or treated with colour, all wood needs to be nourished and protected. Just 1 litre covers about 50m², and takes only one coat to colour and protect your wood against water, heat and sunlight. It is simple to apply – You just need to sand down

and clean your natural wood and then apply the oil using a cloth. After a few minutes the oil will have penetrated into the upper layers of the wood and then you simply wipe away the excess. It can be used inside & outside for gum poles, window frames, flooring, doors and furniture etc. You can also use it on all veneers. In one application you can change the colour of any absorbent natural wood product to a colour that will enhance the grain and transform the look. We have over 30 colours to choose from or you can mix existing colours to create your own. We can also match and make up other colours on request, with a minimum order quantity. Treat your wood and increase its lifespan by applying our maintenance oil when needed. Jax Oleum is proudly manufactured in South Africa using natural, eco-friendly material.

This beachfront apartment entrance door had to be timber, as per body corporate requirements - much to our client's frustration. They were done with the usual timber problems: swelling, sticking, and weather-related movement.

The solution: a beautiful Accoya timber door that won't misbehave - at least for the next 50 years - expertly crafted by Coenie Marais and finished with Jax Oleum single-coat stain and sealant.

Why Penetrating Oil Matters?

Not all wood finishes work the same way. Jax Oleum is a penetrating oil, not a surface coating.

That means it works INTO the timber instead of sitting ON TOP of it.

Why does that matter?
✔ No peeling
✔ No cracking
✔ Natural matte finish
✔ Enhanced grain depth
✔ Easier long-term maintenance

The timber still looks and feels like real wood. Just richer, protected, and alive with character.

Wood has a story written into every grain line. Oleum helps it speak louder. Visit either of our showrooms to see and feel it in person.

“You’ve Got Raw Wood… Now What?”

New wooden floors. A handcrafted table. Raw timber cladding.

Beautiful wood always comes with the same question: “What do I put on it?”

Jax Oleum is designed to colour, nourish, and protect natural wood in a single coat, while still letting the grain do the talking.

No thick plastic-looking film.
No complicated multi-coat process.

Before the colour comes the shake

Our single coat oil-based wood stain loves a good mix before it gets to work. Give the tin a proper shake (and keep it moving while you apply) to keep those pigments perfectly blended for that smooth, even finish we all want.

Think of it as waking up the colour before it hits the wood
