Teach you to distinguish the difference between wood wax oil and water paint

Wood wax oil and water-based paint are both popular decorative paints, which are green and environmentally friendly, making furniture more beautiful. But few people know the difference between the two. Today, I have sorted out the related introductions of wood wax oil and water-based paint, so that everyone can understand them.

Wood wax oil



Wood wax oil is not a primer. Because wood wax oil is an environmentally friendly product, it is a wood oil-based environmentally friendly paint made from plant oil and vegetable wax.


Tested by the national authority, it does not contain formaldehyde, benzene, toluene and xylene. It is safe and harmless to the healthy growth of people, animals and plants. It is a pure natural and green product in the true sense.


Wood wax oil can penetrate into the tiny pores on the surface of the wood, allowing the wood to breathe naturally, maintaining the elasticity of the natural wood, firmly bonding with the wood, enhancing the hardness of the wood surface, and will not form a paint film on the wood surface, and it is not easy to crack, warp and fall off.

Water-based paint



Water-based paint is a paint that does not contain organic solvents. It is a paint that contains water as a diluent and does not contain organic solvents. It is non-toxic, non-irritating, harmless to the human body and does not pollute the environment. Good flexibility, water resistance, abrasion resistance and aging resistance. Generally speaking, water-based paint is suitable for wood, plastic, glass and other materials.



So what is the difference between the two?

1. Different thinners

Water-based paint can have the effect of paint, and the gloss is better than wood wax oil. Environmentally-friendly water-based paint can be directly diluted with pure water as a diluent. The wood wax oil needs a special thinner to be diluted. If the water-based paint gets on your hands during the painting process, it can be washed directly with water, and the wood wax oil needs to be washed with thinner or soap.


2. Different painting tools

The brush used for wood wax painting is a bristle brush, and the water-based paint brush is a water-based special fiber brush, which is softer than the bristle brush.


3. Different colorants

Wood wax oil is an oil-based paint, and the color paste used is an oil-based color paste; the water-based paint is a water-based paint, and it is toned with a water-based color paste.


4. Different construction methods:

Regarding the construction of wood wax oil, it is recommended to wipe, spray and brush.

Regarding the application of water-based paint, brushing and spraying are recommended.



Water-based paint and wood wax oil cannot be mixed. Water-based paint is water-based, and wood wax oil is oil-based. The two are incompatible with each other. Therefore, wood wax oil and water-based paint cannot be used together.
