Product Information
Full details
Osmo UV Protection Oil Extra in Black 3075 is an ideal solution for homeowners and professionals seeking a durable, tinted protective finish for vertical exterior timber surfaces. It provides excellent UV resistance and weather protection while maintaining a breathable, microporous barrier that prevents common issues like cracking, peeling, or flaking. While it offers superior defense against moisture and biological growth, users should note it is specifically formulated for vertical surfaces rather than high-traffic decking or flooring.

FAQs
Can I use this oil on my wooden deck?
No, this product is specifically formulated for vertical surfaces and is not suitable for high-traffic horizontal decking.
Do I need to sand the surface before reapplying?
No, Osmo UV Protection Oil Extra is designed for easy maintenance; you can simply clean the surface and apply a new coat.
Is this product safe for my pets?
Yes, the finish is completely safe for humans, plants, and animals once it has fully dried and cured.
How long does it take to dry?
Under normal conditions, it takes approximately 12 hours to dry between coats, depending on ambient temperature and humidity.
Can this be used on interior wood?
While it is designed for exterior use, it is best to check the specific product label for interior application suitability; typically, Osmo has dedicated interior ranges.
How many coats should I apply?
Two thin coats are recommended for optimal protection and an even color finish.
Troubleshooting
Finish appears sticky or tacky after 24 hours.
The coat was likely applied too thickly. Ensure subsequent coats are applied as thin as possible to allow proper oxidation.
Visible brush marks or streaks.
Use a high-quality Osmo-recommended brush and work in small sections, ensuring you feather out the oil along the wood grain.
Moisture is soaking into the wood despite the application.
The wood may be too weathered or absorbent; apply an additional thin coat to seal the fibers completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal results, the timber surface must be clean, dry, and frost-free. Remove any old paint or varnish by sanding lightly before application. Apply the oil thinly and evenly along the wood grain using a high-quality brush or roller. Ensure the first coat is fully dry—typically 12 hours under good ventilation—before applying a second coat. For routine care, simply clean the surface with a damp cloth or a mild wood cleaner. When it is time to freshen up the appearance, you can apply a new coat directly over the existing clean, dry surface without needing to sand it down to bare wood.
