Osmo Top Oil Tints

We offer all the colours and shades of Osmo Top Oil tints –

The clear shades are –

• 3068 Natural – This offers a natural look, so will look like an un-treated piece of wood but with the added protection needed to seal the timber. This is ideal on lighter shades of timber like Oak, Beech and Pine. This is not suitable on darker timbers.
• 3028 Satin – This enhances the tone of wood with a soft sheen and again will enhance the grain of the work top.
• 3058 Matt – This highlights the grain in the wood, whilst displaying the natural charm of the timber in a Matt sheen.

The top oil tints in order from light to dark are –

• 3037 White – This whitewash effect can be added to your worktop as it is very slightly tinted with white. This works really well for modern work surfaces and especially on Oak with an open grain.
• 3061 Acacia – This is offers a light tint of brown to offer a lovely warmth to your worktop.
• 3038 Terra – This is a darker brown tint that offers a rich finish.
• 3039 Graphite – This tint adds a darker grey tone for a more modern finish.

Please note

• The drying time is Approx. 8-10 hours (normal climatic conditions, 23 °C/50 % rel. humidity). Ventilate well while drying. Lower temperatures and/or higher air humidity may increase drying times.
• The product coverage for 1 coat is 24 m²/1 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.
• Top Oil 3028 and Top Oil 3058 Clear enhances the tone of wood (permanent wet effect).
• Top Oil 3068 Natural counteracts exactly this effect and protects wood nearly invisibly. The natural colour tone of wood is preserved.
• On dark/reddish wood species, Top Oil 3068 Natural is visible as slightly white chalky surface.
• Applying the product too generously and insufficient ventilation lead to delays in drying time.
• For cabinet interiors and drawers, apply max. one coat thinly with a cloth.
• Allow for good ventilation while drying.
• If a higher gloss level is desired, after thoroughly drying apply Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner (also available as Spray) thinly and polish when dry.
• Wood surfaces treated with Top Oil are easy to clean. Add Osmo Wash and Care concentrate to mop water and clean the surface with a damp (not wet!) cloth. Use Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner to remove tough stains, which cleans and regenerates the surface at the same time.
• Store for 5 years and longer if stored in the closed original can. If thickened by frost, store at room temperature for 24 hours prior to use.
