Looking to add a personal touch to your outdoor wood projects? Timbashield's Wood Protector offers a world of possibilities for creating your own unique shade. In this guide, we'll explore various techniques for customising your Wood Protector and unlocking endless creative potential.
Creating Your Custom Shade
When it comes to staining wood, there are numerous ways to get your desired custom shade. Whether you prefer a subtle tint or a bold statement, our versatile product allows you to tailor the colour to suit your unique project. Keep reading to discover how you can create your very own shade!
The Mixing Technique
One of the simplest ways to customise your Wood Protector is by mixing different colours together. Experiment with blending various shades to achieve your desired hue. Whether you're aiming for a subtle tint or a bold statement, mixing allows you to tailor the colour to suit your project.
Remember to test the mixed shade on a small inconspicuous area before applying it to the entire surface. That way, you can see if you have achieved the desired colour before applying the product to your entire project.
Adjusting Your Shade
If you find that your custom shade is coming out too dark or bright, don't fret! You can easily adjust the intensity by adding Timbashield's Clear Wood Protector to the mix. Adding the clear product can help tone down the colour and achieve the perfect shade for your project. We recommend starting with a ratio of 1 part colour to 2 parts clear for optimal coverage and protection.
The Layering Technique
Layering is another effective method for customising your Wood Protector. Apply multiple coats of different colours to create depth and dimension. By layering lighter and darker shades, you can achieve a nuanced and dynamic finish that enhances the natural beauty of the wood.
As mentioned before, test the layering technique on a small area first to ensure the desired effect. Otherwise, you risk spoiling the entire project, which could be a costly and timely mistake!
Experimentation is Key
The beauty of customising Timbashield's Wood Protector lies in the freedom to experiment. Don't be afraid to mix and match colours or even try different application techniques to achieve your desired effect. With endless possibilities at your fingertips, the only limit is your imagination. Always remember to test each method in a small area before applying it to the entire surface.

Whether you're refreshing a tired fence, revitalising garden furniture, or embarking on a new woodworking project, Timbashield's Wood Protector offers the perfect canvas for expressing your creativity. By mastering the mix, you can transform ordinary wood surfaces into a tasteful outdoor space, reflecting your unique vision.
