Introduction
Why Wood Turns Grey
UV exposure breaks down wood’s lignin, resulting in a grey surface. Rain, dust, and algae accelerate the discolouration, making wood look neglected.
How Lacq Turbogel Rejuvenates Greyed Wood
The thick gel adheres strongly, allowing its active ingredients to dissolve surface oxidation and dirt. After a quick scrub and rinse, the wood regains its former colour and character, all while using a friendly, water‑based approach.
