Auson Roslag mahogany is a thin-flowing tar glaze that gives a darker mahogany tone. It is based on an old Swedish recipe consisting of Äkta Trätjära, linseed oil and balsam turpentine. As Roslag mahogany is very runny, it should be applied thinly and ironed on twice. Remember to let the surface dry thoroughly between coats.

Feel free to use Auson Roslag mahogany on piers, boats, chipboard roofs and of course on various types of wooden houses. Roslag mahogany can be used on untreated wood and wood that has previously been treated with pine tar.

Roslag mahogany contains linseed oil which, in unfavorable conditions, can nourish mold. Therefore, you must always do a thorough mold wash of the surface before painting.
