Swedex Window Teak Woodstain

[caymo]

Can anybody out there give me a dig out? I was left high and dry by Swedex after they went into liquidation without completing installation. I now have to match the colour of frontdoor sidepanels, I am getting a joiner to make up, with the existing swedex wooden windows which are stained Swedex Teak (TC1703). Has anyone any idea if this colour can be sourced in Ireland?

Thanks

same boat as you, we bought aluclad windows from swedex with walnut stain inside TC1701 i think, we found out that the Viking http://www.viking.ee/ that made the windows in Estonia used Teknos stain, who have an office in the north but not south, sales.ni@teknos.co.uk , they'll ask you for the formula used, viking Virge Leontjev <vl@viking.ee> told me:

"You need to paint window boards? Our recipes is: 1-st layer of stain; 2-nd layer of varnish; 3-rd layer - varnish + 5% stain (mixed together) Why 5% stain? It will not give you tone, but give you UV protection. So, it's really important to have it."

i ended up getting close-ish stain in local diy store after all that!!
