"TONKI" - the classic! Glossy, clear varnish oil for wood and metal. The formulation of LE TONKINOIS varnish oil is based on a special formula in which high-quality linseed oil and Chinese wood oil (tung oil) are cooked together. This creates a natural product without chemical additives. The varnish oil is suitable for indoor and outdoor use as well as for application under extreme weather conditions. It forms a resistant, elastic protective film with high UV resistance and highlights the natural grain of the wood.Application: LE TONKINOIS VARNISH is applied to untreated or cleanly sanded wood. Application is done with a brush or roller; for spray application, it can be diluted up to max. 10% with the appropriate LE TONKINOIS thinner. Only one thin coat should be applied per day. Stir well before use, do not apply below 12 °C.Technical DataArea of application: Wood and degreased metals indoors and outdoors, also under extreme weather conditionsSubstrate: Untreated wood, wood-based materials, limited use on corkCoverage: 20 m²/l Thinning: Max. 5–10% with LE TONKINOIS thinnerApplication method: Brush, flat brush, sprayingDrying times (at 20 °C): Dust dry after 6–8 h, reworkable after approx. 24 h, walkable after 3 days (with 2–3 coats)Further information on application can be found in the technical data sheet under 'Downloads'.

"TONKI No.1" - the classic for sunny sailing areas. LE TONKINOIS MARINE NO.1 is a glossy, clear oil varnish specially developed for wooden surfaces in maritime environments. It is approved by the French Navy as a ship varnish and is suitable for both interior and exterior use.

The formulation is free from chemical additives, considered child-safe (according to DIN EN 71-3), and enables long-lasting surface protection with multiple applications.ApplicationMarine No. 1 is applied to untreated or appropriately pretreated wood. Application is done using a brush, flat brush, or by spraying. The coats are applied thinly, with only one layer per day. For exterior areas, six to ten coats are recommended; for interior areas, half is sufficient. A primer with Bio Impression is recommended for untreated or highly absorbent wood. The application temperature should be at least 12 °C.Technical DataApplication area: Wooden surfaces indoors and outdoors, seawater and UV resistantSubstrate: Untreated wood, wood-based materials, conditionally corkPrimer: Bio ImpressionCoverage: 20 m²/l per coatThinning: Use undiluted; when spraying max. 10% Le Tonkinois thinnerApplication method: Brushing, rolling, sprayingDrying times (at 20 °C): Dust-dry after 5–8 h, recoatable after at least 24 hFurther information on application can be found in the Technical Data Sheet under 'Downloads'.

LE TONKINOIS GELOMAT is a matting agent for combination with all LE TONKINOIS lacquers. It is added to the last coat of lacquer to achieve a satin to matt surface. Depending on the mixing ratio, different gloss levels such as matt, silk matt or silk gloss can be achieved.Application For a matt surface, mix LE TONKINOIS GELOMAT and lacquer in a ratio of 1:1. For silk matt results, use a ratio of 1:2, for silk glossy surfaces, use a ratio of 1:3. Ensure good ventilation during application. The drying time corresponds to that of the paint product used.Further information can be found in the technical data sheet under 'Downloads'.

LE TONKINOIS Yacht Oil Stain is a plant oil-based, intensely colored wood pre-treatment for hardwood surfaces indoors and outdoors. The stain penetrates deeply into the wood and creates a uniform coloration with a pleasant feel. It is resistant to dirt and water-repellent, and the pigmentation increases UV protection. In boatbuilding it is suitable for matching the color of wooden surfaces on decks, superstructures and other heavily used surfaces. For adequate protection, a subsequent protective coating with LE TONKINOIS Vernis or Marine No.1 is recommended.Application: The surface must be dust- and grease-free and clean; the wood moisture should not exceed 15%. The stain is applied undiluted with a brush or roller to untreated wood. After a short exposure time, the excess is evenly distributed and removed with a lint-free cloth. It is recommended to create a test area beforehand. The processing temperature should be at least 12 °C. Walkability is achieved after three days with 2–3 coats.Technical DataField of application: Indoor and outdoor, e.g., boat decks, superstructures, wooden floorsSubstrate: Untreated wood, wood-based materialsCoverage: 35–50 ml/m² (depending on type of wood)Application method: Brushing with brush or rollerDrying times (at 20 °C): Dust-dry after 6–8 h, re-coatable after 12 h, walkable after 3 daysFor more information on processing, please refer to the technical data sheet under 'Downloads'.

A cleaning and brightening agent for treating grayed wood surfaces. The formulation of LE TONKINOIS Wood Brightener is based on nature-identical oxalic acid and coconut fatty acid active ingredients and is suitable for hard- and softwood in outdoor areas, such as decking or garden furniture. The brightener reliably removes weather-related discoloration and prepares the wood for subsequent surface treatment.Application: Shake well before use and apply generously with a brush. Do not use in direct sunlight. Moisten wood with water if necessary. After a reaction time of 10–15 minutes, scrub with a hard brush or abrasive fleece and water. Then rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry completely. The surface will be rough afterward and should be sanded before further treatment.Technical DataApplication area: Brightening and cleaning of grayed hardwood and softwood, e.g., decking and garden furnitureSubstrate: All woods, roughly pre-cleanedCoverage: Min. 100 ml/m², depending on the wood's absorbencyApplication method: Brush and scrubberDrying times (at 20 °C): 1–2 days depending on weather conditionsFurther information on application can be found in the Technical Data Sheet under 'Downloads'.

A highly effective pre-coating oil that protects, beautifies and hardens wood. LE TONKINOIS BIO IMPRESSION is ideal for pre-treatment before varnishing, as it penetrates deep into the wood and, due to its saturation, unifies the absorption behavior of the wood surface. Made from pure natural oils (linseed oil, castor oil, palm oil) and free from harmful substances and solvents. The oil dries quickly, is abrasion-resistant after drying and provides a good base for further surface coating with varnishes such as LE TONKINOIS Vernis or Marine No.1.Technical DataApplication area: Interior/exterior wood: windows, doors, fences, cladding, floorsSubstrate: sanded, clean, dry, max. 15% moistureApplication: brush, flat brushCoverage: avg. 20 m²/l; 30–50 ml/m² eepending on materialThinner: noneDrying (20 °C): dust dry 6–8 hrs, recoatable after 12 hrsIngredients: linseed oil, tung oil, natural resins, isoaliphaticsFurther information can be found in the technical data sheet under "Downloads".

LE TONKINOIS PARQUETS is an open-pore parquet varnish based on oil for wooden floors in indoor areas. The formulation with linseed oil, tung oil, and alkyd resins allows deep penetration into the wood capillaries, thereby reducing swelling and shrinking. The varnish offers long-lasting protection against abrasion and wear and is also UV-resistant. The natural wood grain is preserved and visually enhanced.Application: Wooden surfaces to be treated should be sanded, free of grease and dust. For soft woods, a prior primer coat with LE TONKINOIS Bio Impression is recommended. Stir well before use, do not dilute. LE TONKINOIS PARQUETS is applied in thin layers with a brush, roller, or floor varnish roller. Depending on the type of wood, apply at least two to three coats. Apply only one coat per day. Sand between layers with max 180 grit.Technical DataApplication area: Protective varnish for indoor wooden floorsSubstrate: Untreated wood, wood-based materialsPrimer: Bio Impression for soft woods (optional)Coverage: 20 m²/l per coat (depending on the absorbency of the wood)Application method: Brushing, rolling, sprayingDrying times (at 20 °C): Dust-dry after 6–8 h, re-coatable after 24 hFor more information on application, see the Technical Data Sheet under 'Downloads'.
