Product Information
Full details
Osmo UV Protection Oil Extra in Brown is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to protect and enhance exterior timber surfaces like window frames, doors, and garden furniture. This product offers a durable, microporous, and lightly tinted finish that prevents wood swelling and resists algae, mildew, and fungal growth, making it an excellent choice for maintaining vertical wood surfaces. The primary caveat is that because it is a penetrating oil, it is specifically optimized for vertical applications and requires careful application to ensure even coverage across different wood types.

FAQs
Is this oil suitable for decking?
This product is primarily formulated for vertical surfaces. For decking, we recommend using dedicated Osmo decking oils.
Do I need to sand the surface before re-applying?
No, one of the key benefits of this product is that it can be reapplied directly onto a clean surface without sanding.
Is it safe for pets and plants?
Yes, once the finish has fully dried and cured, it is safe for both humans, plants, and animals.
How do I clean the tools after use?
Clean your brushes and rollers using a suitable brush cleaner or white spirit.
Can this be used on internal wood?
This product is specifically formulated for outdoor use and includes biocides for exterior protection; it is not recommended for interior furniture.
Troubleshooting
The finish is taking too long to dry.
You may have applied the oil too thickly. Ensure the coat is thin and allow for better ventilation.
Surface feels sticky after application.
This is a sign of over-application. Use a clean, lint-free cloth to wipe off excess oil from the surface.
Wood is showing patches of mold.
Clean the surface thoroughly to remove existing spores before applying a fresh coat of UV Protection Oil.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free of old paint or varnish. Osmo UV Protection Oil is compatible with a variety of outdoor timber, including doors, window sills, cladding, and outdoor furniture. Apply the oil thinly and evenly along the wood grain using an Osmo brush or roller. Because it is a penetrating finish, avoid over-application, as this can lead to longer drying times. For routine maintenance, simply wash the surface with water and apply a thin refresh coat when the finish begins to look dull, ensuring the surface is dry before re-coating.
