UV-Protection-Oil

Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (moisture content max. 20%). Osmo UV-Protection-Oil is ready to use. Do not thin. Stir well before use. If possible, please apply the first coat to all sides before installation. Fresh wood, containing natural wood extractives and especially hard wood needs to weather off (for approximately 6 weeks) after installation. Thereby the wood becomes absorbent and the wood coating adheres optimally. A coloured base coat is recommended, e.g. Osmo One Coat Only, Natural Oil Woodstain or Country Colour.  For renovations, clean old microporous wood finishes thoroughly. Degrey any already greyed wood with Osmo Wood Reviver Power-Gel before applying Osmo Clean old microporous stains thoroughly. Old paints, varnishes and lacquers must be completely removed. Always wear a dust mask while sanding. Do not sand smooth surfaces finer than P120. 

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.

With Osmo Flat Brush or Osmo Microfibre Roller, apply thinly along the wood grain and spread well. Allow to dry for approx. 12 hours under good ventilation. Then apply the second coat. For renovation works, one coat applied to the clean and dry surface is usually 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.

Inspect the coating regularly (min. 1x annually, in particular areas exposed to weather). If necessary, clean the surface and recoat 1x thinly with Osmo UV-Protection-Oil. Horizontal elements mounted onto vertical wood should have at least a 15-degree angle. Sharp edges must be rounded (radius > 2 mm). If the natural greying process has already begun, de-grey the surface with Osmo Wood Reviver Power-Gel and apply 2 coats of Osmo UV-Protection- Oil. To achieve the UV protection factor 12, it is necessary to apply 2 coats of UV-Protection-Oil. With only 1 coat on untreated wood, the life of the coating is significantly shorter. Due to high oil content, the coating has a light yellowing effect when used as a top coat on white substrates. Therefore, we recommend using Natural Oil Woodstain 900 White as a top coat in such cases. Oils enhance the natural wood colour (permanent wet effect).
