Aging agent concentrated for wood - Barn wood effect
Veillisseur concentré pour bois - Effet bois de grange
Barn wood effect is a wood aging stain which creates a natural silver-grey finish that highlights wood graining.
It can be used alone for a more discrete effect or with the tannic activator, which enhance the reactivity of the wood and strongly emphasize the aging effect.
