Best blond - Lockwood home
Famous for unobstructed timber finishes, the Lockwood brand conjures up a reputation of clean, natural, uncluttered design perfect for clients clamouring for a home that looks like it has just stepped out of nature.

A new Hamilton residence showcases blond finishes meeting striking feature wall accents of Resene Akaroa (pebble grey), Resene Arapawa (peacock blue), Resene Silver Aluminium (smooth silver) and Resene Blast Grey 1 (charcoal metallic) reflecting a new era in Lockwood styling.

Traditionally Lockwood homes were blonded in selected interior areas using a solventborne stain, an unfortunate forced departure for these environmentally friendly homes. Luckily the forced departure is no longer necessary with Resene Colorwood tinted to Resene Rock Salt (whitened stain) followed by protective clear coats of Resene Aquaclear satin proving to be the ideal system to blond interior areas. Being waterborne, Resene Colorwood is a favourite with tradespeople and clients alike being easier to apply and clean up, Environmental Choice approved and best of all, more aesthetically pleasing than its solventborne predecessors.

The perfect blond for a natural Lockwood beauty.
