The Roxil UV Top Oil 303 is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to protect and restore outdoor timber. Its key benefit is providing comprehensive defense against sun and rain damage, while a potential caveat is the need for multiple coats to achieve a desired finish. This wood treatment uses linseed oil to nourish weathered wood, absorbs harmful UV rays to prevent bleaching, and inhibits mould, fungi, and algae growth. It also offers water resistance and flexibility to prevent cracking and warping, with a finish that can be customized from matt to gloss.

For a matt finish and good protection, two coats are generally recommended. For a higher gloss sheen and enhanced protection, additional coats can be applied after the previous one has dried.
Roxil UV Top Oil 303 is specifically formulated for outdoor timber. It is not recommended for interior use.
The longevity of the finish depends on exposure to weather and UV. Reapplication is typically needed annually or when the wood starts to look dry or worn.
No, this product is designed to penetrate bare or previously oiled wood. It should not be applied over paint, varnish, or lacquer.
Allow at least 2-4 hours for drying between coats, depending on temperature and humidity. Ensure the surface is dry to the touch before applying the next layer.
Tools can be cleaned with white spirit or a suitable solvent immediately after use.
The film preserver actively inhibits mould, fungi, and algae growth, reducing their occurrence. However, it does not guarantee complete elimination, especially in persistently damp or shaded conditions.
Ensure the oil was applied evenly and that the wood was not absorbing the oil at an inconsistent rate. Apply an additional thin, even coat to blend any discrepancies.
Severe discoloration may require more thorough cleaning or sanding before oil application. For deeply weathered wood, multiple applications may be needed.
This can occur if the oil was applied too thickly, did not penetrate properly, or if the surface was not adequately prepared. Remove the affected coating by sanding and reapply thinly and evenly.
Some woods may darken slightly upon oil application. This is a natural characteristic of oiled wood. If the darkening is excessive, it may indicate over-application; subsequent lighter coats might help, or for severe cases, removal and reapplication might be considered.
Preparation: Ensure all timber surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, and previous coatings. Sand down any rough or weathered areas before application. For new wood, it is recommended to apply two coats for optimal protection.
Application: Shake the container well before use. Apply a liberal coat using a soft cloth, brush, or roller. Work the oil into the grain of the wood. For a matt finish, apply two coats. For a higher gloss sheen, apply additional coats, allowing each to dry thoroughly before applying the next. Allow at least 2-4 hours drying time between coats, and ensure adequate ventilation.
Compatibility: Suitable for all exterior timber, including garden furniture, decking, sheds, planters, summerhouses, and gazebos. It can be applied over existing linseed oil finishes but is not recommended for use over varnishes or lacquers.
Care: Clean treated surfaces with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. Reapplication will be necessary periodically, typically annually or when signs of wear appear, to maintain protection and appearance.
