OSMO TopOil

Osmo hardwax oils offer a top quality treatment for wooden flooring, other internal and external woodwork. These are natural wood finishes with all the goodness of nature, made from natural oils and waxes, canauba wax, sunflower oil, candilla wax, thistle oil and more.
 
Osmo hardwax oils provide natural character, durability and protection for all interior and exterior timber. Wooden floors are often exposed to great stresses and strains, therefore they require extra protection and Osmo hardwax oils offer a very durable finish. This protection should not disturb or change the natural appearance of the wood‘s surface.
 
The range of Osmo hardwax oils provide this protection from within the wood itself, bringing the natural grain and character of the wood to life whilst offering maximum protection and allowing it to “breathe”. This helps to maintain its elastic surface qualities and allows it to compliment its environment. With Osmo natural wood finishes the wood surface retains its natural character and charm but also becomes abrasion, water and dirt resistant – a long lasting surface protection against those small daily mishaps.

If required, sand with fine grain before application (grain max. 150), remove dust carefully. For wood tending to attract blue stain in moist surroundings (e.g. pine) a pre-treatment (all sides if possible) with biocide-free wax impregnation Osmo Wood Protector is recommended.

Application:   Osmo TopOil is ready to use. Please do not thin – shake well before use.
Apply with a stiff, tight quality brush with tight fine bristles, e.g. Osmo Hand Brush (100 mm) or a dry cloth. Apply first coat thinly, thoroughly and evenly along wood grain. Remove surplus. Leave to dry over night (at least 8-10 hours) ensuring good ventilation.
Apply second coat as above. Remove surplus and leave to dry at least 8-10 hours. Ventilate well. If using a cloth, apply 3-4 thin coats.
For the inside of cupboards and drawers apply only 1 thin coat with a cloth and leave it to dry with good ventilation.
If a more satin finish is desired, apply Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner (also available as Spray) thinly and polish after drying with the Osmo Polishing Pad.
 
Cleaning of Tools:   Clean working utensils with Osmo Brush Cleaner (benzene-free).
 
Drying Time:   At least 8-10 hours – provide good ventilation (Osmo wood finishes dry by oxidation and therefore need air). Dust dry – after approx. 6 hours. For cork surfaces the drying time can be 24 hours or longer.
 
Care and Maintenance:   Surfaces treated with Osmo TopOil can be cleaned with water (containing Osmo Wash And Care). For persistent stains, remove with Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner (also available as Spray). This will also revive the appearance of the surface. When the surface becomes a little dull apply a thin coat of Osmo TopOil.
 
Renovation:   For renovation apply a thin coat of Osmo TopOil on clean, dry surface. This is also possible in hard used areas. No repair marks will be visible.
