If you have any energy after romancing your loved one this Valentine's Day (February 14th 2009), why not make use of the spring in your step and show your home a bit of care and attention?

Wooden furniture and flooring in our homes can last for many years, as long as it is cared for and maintained accordingly. So put some passion into protecting your wood and you're bound to be pleasantly surprised by the results.

You needn't be a DIY expert in order to love your wood. For some excellent step by step advice for treating flooring or even restoring an old piece of wooden furniture, you can download one of Sadolin's podcasts from the website (www.sadolin.co.uk/homeowner); with recognised DIY presenters like Anna-Ryder Richardson guiding you through the process.

As well as top advice and guidance, Sadolin also has products which will ensure that the wood in your home is pampered to perfection. Sadolin Extra Durable Floor Varnish and Sadolin Quick Drying Varnish have both been formulated with Teflon® surface protector, so they offer the smoothest, most durable finish.

Sadolin's superior formulations make a real difference for those who have a real wooden floor in their home. Not only does the Teflon® provide better performance, offering added durability even in areas of high traffic such as hallways, but it also makes for an easier, more flowing application which results in an improved finish even for the inexperienced DIY-er.

Sadolin Extra Durable Floor Varnish with Teflon® (£35.99/2.5 litres) is available in eight shades, from Maple to Dark Oak, plus clear, in Satin, Gloss and Matt finishes.

Sadolin Quick Drying Varnish is smooth and easy to apply, with a swift drying time – touch dry in under an hour – which offers the DIY-er convenience without compromising on protection.

Boasting maximum resistance to knocks, scratches and marking, and low odour when applying, Quick Drying Varnish is ideal for use on all types of interior wood surfaces like tables, dressers and bedroom furniture.

Sadolin Quick Drying Varnish (£14.49/750ml) comes in a choice of satin, gloss or matt finish, and is available in Clear, as well as a range of six attractive natural colours, including Dark Oak and Maple.
