NUMBER OF COATS
Two coats on raw wood; for renovations, normally one coat on the clean surface is sufficient – without sanding!

TOOLS
Flat BrushMicrofiber RollerFlooring/Decking brushPad

Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (moisture content max. 20%). Osmo Greying Stain is ready to use. Do not thin. Stir well. If possible, please apply the first coat to all sides before installation. Clean old microporous stains thoroughly. Old paints, varnishes and lacquers must be completely removed. Always wear a dust mask while sanding.

The finished surface and the product coverage are influenced by several factors, including the condition of the wood. Therefore, a trial application is always required, especially for unfamiliar surfaces.

Apply the first coat with Osmo Flat Brush, Oil Finish Applicator Fleece or Microfibre Roller thinly along the wood grain and spread well. Leave to dry for approx. 4-6 hours under good ventilation. Then carry out the second coat. For renovations, generally one coat applied to the clean and dry surface is sufficient. 

With Osmo Brush Cleaner (free of aromatic compounds).

Approx. 12 hours (normal climatic conditions, 20-23°C / 50-65 % rel. humidity). Ventilate well while drying. Lower temperatures and/or higher air humidity may increase drying times.

Transparent colours are influenced by the natural wood colour, and therefore, they may deviate from colour swatches. Light transparent colour tones offer only limited UV protection; therefore they are not recommended for surfaces exposed to strong sunlight. The dried surface is at first satin-glossy and then matt.  Many wood species contain water-soluble coloured extractives which may leach out naturally when weathered. All colour tones can be mixed with each other. Wood stains allow the substrate to shine through. Osmo Greying Stain contains biocides and therefore it is only to be used in outdoor areas. The added active ingredients delay or minimise the risk of algae and fungal attack. In accordance with the latest technical research, permanent protection against algae and fungal attack cannot be guaranteed.
