Ronseal Interior Varnish Medium Oak Satin 750ml

I've used this on oak doors, skirting and bannister. It's great, providing 3 + coats are used for strength. My two dogs haven't decimated it with scratches yet when I get home. Much better colour using a brush rather than a sponge. Paid a decorator to varnish my doors, and had to redo it myself as he used a sponge for 3 coats. Can't fault the product and have used it previously on other doors throughout my home. I get 2.5 doors completed with 3 coats to one tin. Using a brush. It also darkens over time.

Good Product

After receiving this item and reading previous reviews, I was anxious to see what this tin would hold in store for me... As you can see by the photos, the liquid in the tin was in fact grey like another review mentioned and before mixing had some oil sat on the top. However after giving this a good mix up, the oil seemed to disappear and I was left with a nice smooth mix of varnish. I applied a thin layer to a piece of whitewood with a lint free rag and as you can see from the photo, it gives its a nice "medium oak" finish... You can always apply more layers if you require a darker finish. This is very quick drying and not a problem for a smaller project however I think if you were covering a larger area, you could find yourself layering up without noticing. A little goes a long way so this tin is great value for money! Would recommend to anyone looking for a medium oak finish - Just like it says on the tin!

Good varnish - always use Ronseal.

I got so fed up putting oil on my real oak worktops & they also had ring marks & other stains etc which looked unsightly in my lovely kitchen. I did some on line research & discovered that with good preparation of the wood I could use the varnish. So I set too & sanded the largest worktop which also houses the sink & draining board which took the old oil off & removed all the stains. Once I wiped the dust off the wood & making sure it was dry I added 3 layers of the varnish. I’m so pleased with the results as the worktop looks new. I shall also do the other ones I’m so impressed with the finish. I won’t go back to oil. The varnish dried quickly too.

Took so much time prepping my wood kitchen work tops and then did the 3 coats, left it to harden for 3 days just gently wiped the side where water had spilt and now I have varnish marks on my worktops....is this correct 😑
