LED Smart-Oil: a how-to guide
Coat it. Light it. Done.
Osmo LED Smart-Oil is a high-quality, matt surface finish for curing with LED lamps for professional users. With only one coat, a microporous and breathable surface is produced, which is resistant to wine, beer, cola, coffee, water etc. according to DIN EN 12720 (formerly 68861-C). The dried coating is safe for humans, animals and plants. Resistant to saliva and perspiration as per DIN 53160, suitable for children's toys as per EN 71.3, food safe as per DIN EN 1186-3.
Osmo LED Smart-Oil is suitable for all wooden stairs and furniture surfaces as well as all wooden floors. Especially suitable for resinous and oily wood species as well as public interiors, for which the immediate curing of the product is required.
Step by step to perfect results
STEP 1: The wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (max. 12 % moisture content).
Apply Osmo LED Smart-Oil thinly with a Double Blade Scraper or similar tools. In bevelled joints or other unclosed surfaces, apply LED Smart-Oil with a Microfibre Roller (partial application, no full surface application).
Then buff in the oil and even out the surface with a single disc machine and a pad without leaving streaks. If streaks appear on the surface due to too much material, we recommend turning the pad over or replacing the pad.
STEP 2: After coating the surface, cure the oil with Osmo UV LED SmartLight Pro at a distance of minimum 2 cm to maximum 10 cm to the surface crosswise.
For a satin sheen, apply two coats of LED Smart-Oil. After the first coat, sand the surface with fine grit sandpaper P240-P320.
Then, apply the second coat very thinly (approx. 5-10 g/m²) and as described in Step 1, even out the surface and cure with Osmo UV LED SmartLight Pro.
Recommended application:
- Wavelength: 395 nm
- Performance: at least 8 Watt
- Smooth, even hand movements at approx. 10 m/min
Coat it, light it – and done. The surface is completely cured within seconds and can be loaded immediately. No waiting time, no drying phase – ready for immediate further processing.
