Info: Natural Woodstain - Auro 160 Interior & Exterior

Auro 160 is an exterior wood stain composed of natural ingredients. The stain dries to a durable semi-transparent finish. Its natural raw materials don’t mean a compromise on performance. You can expect the same results from this stain as any high quality product.

Auro’s unique approach to creating organic and natural wood stain means there is virtually no odour, and the product is free of solvents and vegan friendly. The stain is fast drying and is so safe it can be used on children’s toys and cots (certified saliva- and perspiration-proof, DIN 53160; safe for toys, DIN EN 71, Part 3).

Available in a wide selection of mixable colours, Auro wood stain provides a breathable protective layer. It’s suitable for use on both wood and wood based materials. Wood types rich in active substances can be treated with Special Primer 117.
