PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Satin oil based protective finish for exterior wood.

Microporous, breathable finish allowing the wood to breath and reduces the risk of swelling and shrinkage. Water-repellent, extremely weather- and UV resistant. Easy to renew, no sanding or primer necessary. Easy to apply, does not dry during application. When dry, the finish is safe for humans, animals and plants and is suitable for children’s toys as per EN 71.3 (European norm) and fast to perspiration and saliva in accordance with DIN 53160 (German industrial norm).

RECOMMENDED USE OF OSMO DECKING OIL

Protects, maintains and beautifies wooden decking, garden furniture and screens made from Pine, Larch and other softwoods – also suitable for a pigmented treatment of Cedar, Garapa, Teak, Eucalyptus and other hardwoods.

OSMO DECKING OIL DRYING TIME

Approx. 12 hours (normal climatic conditions,73°F/50% normal humidity). Lower temperatures and/or high humidity can increase the drying time.

DECKING OIL COVERAGE

1 liter Osmo Decking Oil covers approx. 258 ft 2 (24 m²) with one coat.

Coverage depends significantly on the condition of the wood. All information refers to smooth and planed/sanded surfaces.

Other surfaces may lead to differences in coverage.

NOTE

Osmo 1277 clear Decking-Oil is a clear finish and therefore offers no UV-protection. Wooden profiles which are ribbed or grooved as well as old, already weathered decks, brittle or cracked surfaces will absorb more material per square metre than smooth surfaces. Some wood species tend to wash out natural water-soluble, coloured wood ingredients.

Application Instructions

Osmo Decking Oil – General Application Instrucitions

Important: A pressure washer can significantly raise the moisture content beyond 20% and surfaces prepared in this manner must be allowed to dry for 2-3 weeks before applying finish.

If possible apply the first coat on all sides of the decking boards before installation
Use an Osmo 150mm Decking Brush to apply the Decking Oil thinly and evenly, along the wood grain
Allow 10 to 12 hours drying time, then apply a thin second coat as above. Dried surface is satin-glossy at first and afterwards is satin.

Note: The finish may also be buffed into the wood, in thin applications using a non-abrasive white pad or microfibre applicator pad.

Tip: The type and age of timber can have a dramatic impact on how much Decking-Oil you need.

As an example, softwood decking that is old will likely require more oil than a relatively new hardwood decking that still retains a fair amount of natural oil.

To test how much oil your deck needs, apply one thin coat, allow it to dry, then apply a droplet of oil in a corner. If the droplet of oil soaks into the wood then a further coat can be applied. Repeat this process until the droplet of oil sits as a bead on the surface of the wood and no longer soaks into the timber. This is an indication that the timber has absorbed as much oil as possible and doesn’t require any more.
