Thoroughly clean or lightly sand old microporous stains or completely remove old varnishes before application. If any sanding works are carried out some fresh wood species must be weathered as directed above to improve absorbency once more. Sanding to finishing grades of no more than a P120 grit are recommended. Always wear a dust mask when sanding. Bare 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). Fatty Acid Cobalt Salt. Hydrocarbons, C10-C13, nalkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2% aromatics. 1,2-Benzisothiazolone. reaction mass of: 5-chloro2-methyl-4-isothiazolin3-one [EC no. 247-500-7] and 2-methyl-2H-isothiazol3-one [EC no. 220-239-6] (3:1).

Many wood species contain water-soluble coloured extractives ( eg Larch ) which may leach out naturally when weathered.

We always recommend carrying out a test area first in an inconspicuous area to make sure you are happy with the final dried colour. Resinous wood, such as Larch or Douglas Fir, needs to weather off for at least 6 weeks to improve absorbency. Pressure impregnated wood and tropical species like Massaranduba, Bangkirai, Garapa, Iroko need to weather off for at least 3 months. Cedar requires a 3 month weathering period to improve absorbency. For the following wood types, a weathering period is recommended. Depending on wood species, new or freshly sanded wood requires up to 12 weeks (approximate) exposure to the exterior elements before application. If possible, and if the wood is absorbent please apply the first coat to all sides before installation. For the best protection, apply an exterior wood preservative to protect against mould, algae, dry rot, woodworm and wood related diseases

Balau: 12 weeks exposure. 006 Bangkirai is optically suitable and a very popular choice of colour tone.If it doesn't bead, you'll be ready to put on the oil. If it does then you'll have to clean it again until the water stops beading. Bangkirai: 12 weeks exposure. 006 Bangkirai is optically suitable and a very popular choice of colour tone. P101 If medical advice is needed, have product container or label at hand.P102 Keep out of reach of children.P103 Read carefully and follow all instructions. Due to their surface properties, ribbed or grooved as well as rough (sawn) wood surfaces absorb more product per square metre than smooth surfaces. Coverage: 1 coat up to 8 sq metres/litre of smooth timber and up to 5 sq metres on rough sawn timber, 2 coats recommended.

We also deliver to the majority of non mainland UK locations including The scottish Highlands & islands, Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Isles of Scilly and Northern Ireland.
