FAQs
How often should I reapply the Osmo UV Protection Oil?
The reapplication frequency depends on the wood's exposure to weather conditions. Generally, reapply every 2-5 years, or when the wood shows signs of wear or greying.
Can I apply this oil to previously painted or stained wood?
No, it is best applied to bare, clean wood. You'll need to remove any existing finish before application for the oil to penetrate properly.
Is Osmo UV Protection Oil safe for pets and plants?
Yes, this product is formulated without biocides, making it safe for use around pets, plants, and humans once dry.
What is the coverage rate of the Osmo UV Protection Oil?
Coverage can vary. Generally, one liter will cover approximately 12 square meters with one coat, but this depends on the wood's texture and absorbency.
What should I do if the wood has already started to grey?
You may need to use a wood reviver or cleaner to remove the greyed surface before applying the Osmo UV Protection Oil.
Can I use Osmo UV Protection Oil on horizontal surfaces?
This oil is primarily designed for vertical surfaces. While it can be used on some horizontal surfaces, its protection on horizontal areas may not be as long-lasting.
Troubleshooting
Surface rust on the tin
This is caused by warehouse condensation and does not affect the paint quality. The product inside the tin is unaffected. Stir the contents well before use.
Uneven finish or patches
Ensure the oil is applied evenly and thinly. Avoid applying too much oil at once. Lightly sand the surface and reapply a thin coat.
