This oil is ideal for all types of exterior wood, including hardwoods like teak and oak, as well as softwoods commonly used for garden furniture.
Reapplication frequency depends on the exposure of the furniture. Typically, annual application is recommended, or whenever the wood begins to look dry or faded.
No, the surface must be stripped of any varnish or existing finishes for the oil to penetrate and work effectively. Always prepare the surface thoroughly.
The Liberon Garden Furniture Oil covers approximately 30 square metres per litre per coat.
After the final coat, you must allow the treated furniture to dry for a minimum of 24 hours before using it.
This product is specifically formulated for exterior wood. For interior wood, please use an appropriate interior wood oil or finish.
You should clean off any surface mould and grime using Liberon Garden Furniture Cleaner before applying the oil. Failure to do so may result in the timber blackening when oiled.
This can occur if excess oil was not wiped off sufficiently after penetration time. Ensure all excess is removed thoroughly with a lint-free cloth. Uneven blotchiness might also indicate the wood was not uniformly prepared; ensure it was clean and dry before application.
Ensure the wood surface is not sealed with a previous finish like varnish or paint. The surface must be bare wood for the oil to penetrate. Also, check that the wood is not damp.
This is most likely due to residual grime or mould on the surface before oiling, which reacts with the oil and causes blackening. Always clean thoroughly with a dedicated wood cleaner like Liberon Garden Furniture Cleaner before applying the oil.
This usually means too much oil was applied or not enough excess was wiped away. Allow more time for drying, and if still sticky, lightly abrade with fine-grit sandpaper and wipe clean. Ensure the 24-hour drying period between coats and before use is strictly adhered to.
Preparation: Ensure the exterior wood surface is completely clean, dry, and free from any existing varnish or finishes. It is crucial to remove any surface mould or grime; using Liberon Garden Furniture Cleaner beforehand is recommended, as residual grime can cause the timber to blacken once oiled.
Application: Shake the oil well before use. Apply generously using a clean brush or a lint-free cotton cloth. Allow the oil to penetrate the wood for up to 20 minutes. After this period, wipe away any excess oil with a clean, lint-free cloth to prevent a sticky surface. Allow each coat to dry for a minimum of 24 hours before applying subsequent coats. Liberon recommends a minimum of three coats for optimal protection, with additional coats advised for areas more exposed to the elements.
Drying: Treated furniture should not be used until the oil has had a full 24 hours to dry and cure.
Care: Regularly clean furniture with a damp cloth. Reapplication of the oil may be necessary annually or when the wood begins to look dry, depending on exposure.
