Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain

Tips:

• Recommended application: 35 ml/m² per coat.
• Wet coating can be corrected up to 15 min.
• Light transparent color tones offer only limited UV protection; therefore they are not recommended for surfaces exposed to strong sunlight.
• To extend the life of the coating, it is recommended to apply one final top coat of Osmo UV Protection Oil Extra 420 Clear after thoroughly drying (not recommended for White 900).
• For new resinous wood species, please allow approx. three months exposure to the outside elements prior to application.
• The transparent color tone of the finish will be influenced by the wood's natural color, and testing first is always recommended.
• Drying time of 4-6 hrs after the first coat, but is 12 hours after both coats have been applied.
• If the subsurface does not absorb the wood finish uniformly, the coloration will be uneven. For an improved, consistent and matted surface, we recommend retreating the surface with 701 Clear. Thereby glossy spots are matted and an even appearance is created.
• Grey wood looks classically beautiful, to allow the natural greying process to occur, apply 701 Clear. For more grey color tones for an aged and weathered effect, see Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain Effect.
• Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (moisture content max. 20%).
• Thoroughly clean or lightly sand old microporous stains or completely remove old varnishes before application.
• If possible, please apply the first coat to all sides before installation.
• Many wood species contain water-soluble colored extractives which may leach out naturally when weathered.
• Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain is furnished with biocides and therefore it is only to be used in outdoor areas. The added active ingredients delay or minimize the risk of algae and fungal attack.
