Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This product is specifically designed for untreated real wood floors. Do not use on laminate, vinyl, or previously finished/sealed wood floors.
Preparation: Ensure the wood floor is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and old finishes. Sand if necessary and vacuum thoroughly.
Application: Apply thinly and evenly with a brush or applicator pad, following the direction of the wood grain. Work on small sections at a time. Allow the oil to penetrate for 15-30 minutes. Wipe off any excess oil that has not been absorbed using a clean, lint-free cloth. Ensure all excess is removed to prevent a sticky surface.
Drying: Allow at least 12-24 hours drying time between coats, and a full 7 days before heavy use or placing rugs. A second coat can be applied if desired for extra protection.
Care: Clean spills immediately. For regular cleaning, use a slightly damp mop or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water. For maintenance, a light reapplication of the oil may be needed every 1-3 years, depending on wear.
