Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and old finishes. Lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 240 grit) and remove all dust. For new wood, it's recommended to apply 3-5 coats.
Application: Apply Liberon Pure Tung Oil thinly and evenly with a clean, lint-free cloth or a brush. Work the oil into the wood grain. Wipe off any excess oil that has not penetrated the wood within 10-15 minutes. Allow each coat to dry thoroughly, typically 24-48 hours, before applying the next.
Compatibility: Suitable for all types of interior wood, including hardwoods and softwoods. It is also recommended for exterior oak. Test on an inconspicuous area first, especially on lighter woods, to check for colour change. Not suitable for use on floors.
Care: Clean surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water. For spills, wipe them up immediately. Re-apply a maintenance coat of oil as needed, typically once or twice a year, or when the surface begins to look dull or dry.
