Step 1 – Preparation:

Ensure the wood is clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or old finishes. Sand weathered or previously coated surfaces for best absorption.

Wipe off excess oil after 1 hour, then allow to dry for 24 hours.

For optimal protection, reapply every 6–12 months, depending on weather exposure and wear. Decking or horizontal surfaces may require more frequent maintenance.

10. How do I clean my tools after use?

Clean brushes with turpentine followed by warm soapy water.

11. Are there any safety precautions to consider?

Yes. Used rags may self-ignite due to oxidation. Always soak them in water and seal in aluminium foil or an airtight plastic bag before disposal.

Store in a dry, frost-free area away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use.

14. Will this oil change the colour of my wood?

It will slightly deepen the wood’s natural colour, enriching its grain and texture while maintaining a natural, matte appearance.

15. Can I apply it over previously oiled or varnished wood?

For best results, remove any old varnish or wax before applying. The surface must be absorbent for the oil to penetrate effectively.

1. Before Application
The surface must be absorbent, clean, dry, free of dust and grease and load-bearing capacity. Remove old paint and waxes and ensure all residue is removed. Heavily weathered surfaces should be sanded before application.

2. Application
Apply the oil with a brush or cloth in a generous and even layer. Highly absorbent surfaces should be treated several times until the surface is saturated. Wipe off excess oil after 1 hour. Then allow to dry for 24 hours.

3. Cleaning & Storage
Brushes should be cleaned with turpentine and then clean, soapy water. Used cloths can self-ignite and should be soaked in water and packed in airtight aluminium foil or airtight plastic bag before discarding. Store out of direct sunlight in a dry, frost-free area.
