How to use Rustins Teak Oil
- The wood must be clean, smooth, dry and free from wax, dust and contaminants.

- Existing paint and varnishes should be removed with Rustins Strypit Paint and Varnish Stripper.
- Bare wood may be dyed before coating with a Wood Dye.
- It is recommended that oak is first treated with Rustins Clear Advanced Wood Preserver to prevent dark staining caused by mould, inherent in oak. Do not apply Knotting
- Shale well before use
- Apply Rustins Teak Oil liberally with a clean rag or brush and wipe off the surplus oil after a few minutes.
- On exterior wood, the first coat should be applied liberally with a brush and allowed to dry without wiping.
