30m² per litre with one coat

Preparation:

• Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free.
• Osmo Polyx®-Oil Effect Raw is ready to use. Do not thin.
• Stir well using a flat stirring stick or spatula before use.
• Clean old microporous stains thoroughly.
• Old paints and lacquers must be completely removed.
• As a general rule, wear a dust mask during sanding works.
• Fill small cracks, larger joints or holes in wood (with Osmo Wood Filler).
• Sand wood surfaces carefully. Begin with coarse sandpaper – final sanding work for flooring P120-150, for furniture P180-240.
• Before oiling the surface, remove sanding dust with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
• Applying Polyx®-Oil Effect Raw over very textured or coarse surfaces could appear more white.

The finished surface is influenced by several factors, including the condition of the wood. Therefore, a trial application is always required, especially for unfamiliar surfaces.

Application:

• With Osmo Flat Brush, Floor Brush or Osmo Microfibre Roller, apply thinly along the wood grain and spread well.
• Applying excess Polyx®-Oil Effect Raw 3044 may lead to a white chalky surface.
• Remove visible white pigments before allowing the surface to dry.
• Allow to dry for approx 24 hours under good ventilation.
• After drying, quickly apply a second coat also thinly.
• When renovating or recoating an already oiled surface, one coat applied to the clean and dry surface is usually sufficient.

Clean Brushes with Osmo Brush Cleaner.

Care: 

Regular Cleaning: Dust mopping using the green Dust-Mop from the Osmo Mop Cleaning Kit for Floors. Damp mopping using diluted Osmo Wash and Care and the Micro-Mop plush from the Osmo Mop Cleaning Kit for Floors. Alternatively use the convenient Osmo Spray-Mop.

Occasional Maintenance: If the oiled surface remains light in colour yet there is a reduction in water repellency, refresh the surface with Osmo Maintenance Oil 3079 Clear Matt. Before using Osmo Maintenance Oil 3079, damp clean the surface using diluted Osmo Wash and Care, or alternatively Osmo Spray cleaner and allow to fully dry. For small areas Osmo Maintenance Oil 3079 can be applied thinly with a lint free cloth or white pad. Remove excess product. Allow for good ventilation while drying. A small trial is highly recommended first.

Recoating: When slight signs of wear become visible, and providing the surface does not become completely bare, simply re-apply one thin coat onto the clean and dry surface. Avoid applying Polyx®-Oil Effect Raw to bare wood surfaces that have become dirty. Bare, dirty surfaces could appear more rich and dark following the application of the oil finish. A small trial is highly recommended first.

Do not use or store in extremes of temperature and protect from frost.
