WHY IT’S HARD TO KEEP OPEN PORE WOOD LOOKING GOOD
Unlike smooth interior surfaces like plastic, vinyl and leather, open pore wood trim is textured and, well, porous. On top of that, it has a totally unprotected finish — so that porous, ridged texture practically sucks up grime and liquids. Most cleaners and protectants aren’t equipped for this. Here’s why:
-
- Embedded Contaminants: Conventional cleaners struggle to pull out grime embedded in the pores.
- Discoloring Surface: Some cleaners can fade the wood’s color.
- Wearing Away Texture: Aggressive cleaners that are too harsh can wear at the unvarnished texture.
- Sticky, Oily Conditioners: Oil-based conditioners designed to protect finished wood add a sticky residue that attracts contamination and leaves a greasy sheen.
OUR SOLUTION FOR OPEN PORE WOOD MAINTENANCE
Inspired by the open pore wood trim in his own Rivian R1S, Dr. Beasley’s Founder & Chemist Jim Lafeber developed products for cleaning and protecting this unique surface: Timber Cleanser and Timber Coat.
- Timber Cleanser lifts out, breaks down and removes embedded grime and contamination inside the pores without fading the color or altering the texture.
- Timber Coat bonds an invisible, imperceptible barrier with the wood surface, creating a hydrophobic shield against stains, grime, UV rays everyday wear-and-tear.
