WoCa Decking Oil

Decking Oil

for the basic oil finishing of decking

Decking Oil should be used outdoors for basic treatment and maintenance of decking timber. The oil gives the wood a resistant surface and a golden colour, enhancing the wood grain. Decking Oil is available in several natural wood colours. All variations have UV protection.

Available Pot Sizes:
Decking Oil is available in natural (without colour pigments) and in the colours teak, bangkirai, pine, larch, douglasie and red-brown in 2,5 litre container.

Tools:
Brush, cotton cloths and possibly sandpaper.

How to do...

1. Treat new decking timber with oil before use. Clean thoroughly before starting the treatment. For old decks, clean before treatment using Decking Cleaner, then let the wood dry for approximately 24 hours. Make sure the wood is completely clean and dry. Sand down any wood fibres with fine sandpaper. Perform the treatment in dry weather only. Avoid direct sunlight and high temperatures.

2. Stir the oil thoroughly before use. Apply the oil evenly using a brush or paint roller. Treat the crosscut ends first. Remove any excess oil with lean
cotton cloths after no more than 20 minutes. Take particular care to remove excess oil from joints and grooves. If the surface does not appear to be saturated with oil, repeat the treatment. It takes 24 to 48 hours for the oil to harden completely, depending on weather conditions and outdoor temperature. The wood must not be exposed to water during this period.

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