I ordered 140mm kwila posts for my new patio. They are patchy as per the picture. With some segments many shades darker
I said i wasn't happy and the patio installer forwarded me the response from the supplier.
"This is a kwila laminated post, which is made from many components of kwila, it is made to Australian Standards and has a 20 year warranty for delaminating and splitting. This is how they come. I suggest that the posts are sealed with a clear coat or prepared and be painted to the colour of their choice.
Also if the posts are left to weather for a few weeks, you will find the colour will unify. But all kwila laminated posts are made up from many different components."
I don't think weathering will make much difference and the patchy parts aren't facing the sun anyway. Clear coating them won't change the patchiness. A little bit of variation I can cope with but this is such an obvious shade difference. Also my contract doesn't say laminated pays anyway.
Does anyone have any advice?
