Timber Bleach
How to Mix & Apply
1. Strip old finishes: Timber Bleach works on bare wood. Ensure all existing paints, waxes, and clear coats are fully removed.
2. Mix the solution: Dissolve 8 oz of powder per gallon of hot water (or 2 tablespoons per cup for small spot treatments) in a glass or plastic container. Stir until completely dissolved.
3. Apply generously: Using a synthetic brush, sponge, or rag, apply the hot mixture evenly across the grain while the surface is wet.
4. Allow to dry: Let the solution work and dry completely. Stains and gray oxidation will vanish naturally as moisture evaporates.
5. Rinse clean: Wipe down thoroughly with clean, cold water or a damp sponge to remove any dry salt crystals, then let dry before sanding or applying your final finish.
Safety tip: Wear rubber gloves and safety glasses during mixing and application. Use in a well-ventilated area.
Coverage
High-Yield Concentrate: A single 12 oz container dissolves in hot water to yield up to 1.5 gallons of active brightening solution.
Square Footage: One full batch covers approximately 300 to 450 sq. ft. of bare wood, depending on surface porosity and age.
Real-World Project Estimates:
• 1 Canister (12 oz): Covers a full outdoor deck (up to 400 sq. ft.), a large 6–8 chair dining set, or up to 6 standard interior/exterior doors.
• Spot Repairs: Mix 2 tablespoons per cup of hot water for dozens of localized ring, tannin, or iron stain removals.
• Heavy Weathering: For deeply oxidized or rough-sawn lumber, mix slightly stronger (covers ~250–300 sq. ft.).

Restore raw wood grain in minutes
Over time, UV exposure, rain, and oxidation break down surface lignin, turning once-vibrant lumber into an aged, lifeless gray. Power washing or heavy sanding only strips away layers of delicate grain, leaving wood pitted, uneven, and splintered.
Timber Bleach gently reverses weathering by lifting oxidation on contact. It brings back the rich, natural golden and blonde hues of bare timber without sanding off valuable wood depth.
Pure Chemistry, Flawless Bare Wood
Harsh chlorine bleach and aggressive sanding ruin raw grain. Timber Bleach targets stains at the molecular level—lifting deep oxidation while leaving wood fibers completely intact.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of stains does Timber Bleach remove?
Timber Bleach is specifically formulated to eliminate dark water rings, iron and rust marks, weathered gray oxidation, and dark tannin bleed. It also serves as an effective post-stripper neutralizer to eliminate residual dark alkaline shadows.
Can I use this on finished or painted wood?
No. Timber Bleach must penetrate directly into the timber pores to break chemical stain bonds. All paints, varnishes, polyurethanes, and waxes must be completely stripped or sanded away before application.
How does this differ from regular chlorine laundry bleach?
Chlorine bleach destroys wood lignin, leaving surface fibers mushy, pulpy, and unnaturally pale white. Timber Bleach uses pure oxalic acid, which targets iron and tannin stains without degrading the structural cellulose or weakening the grain.
How do I mix it for small spot repairs?
For spot treatments (such as a single cup water ring), dissolve 2 tablespoons of powder in 1 cup of hot water. For whole projects, dissolve 8 oz per gallon of hot water in a clean plastic or glass container.
Do I need to neutralize or rinse after using it?
Yes. Once the wood dries completely and the stains fade, wipe down the surface thoroughly with clean, cold water using a sponge or cloth to remove residual salt crystals. Allow the wood to dry fully before sanding, staining, or sealing.
Will it change the natural color of my wood?
Timber Bleach restores wood to its original raw, un-weathered tone (blonde, golden, or natural timber color). It does not artificially whiten or bleach away the natural wood grain pattern.
Can I use it on food surfaces like butcher blocks?
Yes. It is dye-free and unscented. After removing water and rust stains, rinse the butcher block thoroughly with clean water multiple times and allow it to dry completely before resealing with food-grade mineral oil or cutting board conditioner.
What safety precautions should I take?
Always wear chemical-resistant rubber gloves and safety eyewear when mixing and applying. Work in a well-ventilated area or outdoors, and avoid inhaling any powder dust during preparation.
