How to Use Osmo Garden Furniture Oil
- Wood species with a high content of natural wood extractives need to weather off (min. 4 weeks) before the initial treatment or be cleaned with Osmo Brush Cleaner and Thinner (degreaser).
- Resinous wood, such as Larch or Douglas Fir, needs to weather off for at least 6 weeks.
- Pressure impregnated wood, Massaranduba, Bangkirai or Garapa need to weather off for at least 3 months.
- De-grey any already greyed wood with Osmo Wood Reviver Power Gel before applying Osmo Garden Furniture Oil.
- Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (moisture content max. 20%). Osmo Garden Furniture Oil is ready to use. Do not thin. Stir well before use.
- Thoroughly clean or lightly sand old micro-porous stains or completely remove old varnishes before application. Always wear a dust mask while sanding.
- If possible, please apply the first coat to all sides before installation. If additional protection against blue stain, rot and insect attack is desired, pre-treat the wood, if possible on all sides, with Osmo WR Impregnation.
- 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.
- Apply with an Osmo Flat Brush thinly and evenly to the clean and dry wood surface. and always work with wood grain. Ventilate well while drying.
- Then apply the second coat – also thinly for the final application.
Please note –
Coverage: 1 coat is 24 m²/l. It depends significantly on the character of the wood. All information refers to smooth and planed/cut surfaces. Other surfaces may lead to deviations in coverage.
Drying time: Approx. 12 hours (normal climatic conditions, 23 °C/ 50 % rel. humidity). Ventilate well while drying. Lower temperatures and/or higher air humidity may increase drying times. After 2-3 weeks, the surface is fully cured.
Osmo Garden Furniture Oil is clear; therefore it offers no UV protection (greying). Due to their surface properties, ribbed or rough saw wood surfaces absorb more product. Many wood species contain water-soluble coloured extractives which may leach out naturally when weathered.
