How to do...

Before a new floor is taken into use it is recommended to buff it – both industrially oiled floors and residentially oiled floors. The final buffing provides a hard-wearing
surface and may take place either by hand or with machine. Oiled floors should be maintened regularly – normally once a year, but more often when it comes to floors exposed to extremely hard wear.

1. Clean the floor with 125 ml Wood Cleaner mixed into 5l water. Leave the floor to dry for at least 8 hours. The floor must be completely dry.

2. Shake the container carefully. Apply approx. 100 ml oil per 4 m² with pad, paint roller, cotton cloth or use polishing machine for large surfaces.

3. It is important that the Maintenance Oil is carefully polished into the wood. Continue polishing until the wood appears saturated and the surface looks uniform.

4. Wipe the floor with clean, dry cotton cloths before proceeding with the next section of floor to be
finished. The floor should not appear wet and there should not be any excess oil left on the surface after polishing. Continue in sections untill the floor has been finished. When polished with polishing machine the floor will be pre-hardened after approx. 4 hours at 20° C and may cautiously be taken into use. Manually polished floors may be taken into use after 24 hours. The surface is fully hardened after 24 hours. Do not expose the floor to water during
the hardening time.

Please notice:
Risk of self-ignition! Due to the risk of self-ignition it is important that sanding dust and oil wetted cloths are soaked in water and disposed of in a tightly closed container after use.
