Thread: Rediseal, where to buy SE QLD

Hi, for those interested rediseal is gone in Australia, I emailed Wattyl and received this in reply
Unfortunately Rediseal has been deleted, as has its usual topcoat Maxiwood. The alternate is Furniseal and Stylwood, very similar products, the furniture industry in Australia is no longer big enough to support 2 similar lines. Being owned by an American company now also has higher demands on profitability. We have also deleted all 4L sizes, these lines are now 20L only. We are not the only ones, PPG/Taubmans has done the same thing.
The only NC sealer remaining is Furniseal, Stylwood NC topcoat is slightly slower drying but should yield a harder finish than Maxiwood.

The products you are talking about are generally classed as industrial rather than retail products due to the solvents used. They are all on our website:
Wattyl Protective Coatings
Generally only one shop in each state has knowledge on these products. For QLD it is Cairns, Townsville, Mackay and Browns Plains, Newstead might also be ok.
Rediseal was deleted march this year. There could still be some pails around. Suggest you go to Browns plains and get them to check what stock is left in Australia and they will transfer to their store for you.
