Osmo Polyx-oil Satin Tinted Colours

OSMO Polyx Oil Tinted Colours is a wood finish that combines the benefits of natural oils and waxes in one and can be tinted to 8 colours leaving a translucent, satin finish. A stain-resistant, water repellent and abrasion-resistant oil, it is perfect for interior wooden floors and furniture. Offering an even finish thanks to plant-based ingredients, this wooden floor oil is super quick to apply without even the need for a primer or sanding. Resistant to cracks, peeling and flaking, it is a hard-wearing choice that is safe for use on children’s toys and furniture as well.

Preparation and Application of Osmo Polyx-Oil

To prepare the surface, ensure the wood is clean and dry with any microporous stain thoroughly washed and any cracks or holes in the wood filled adequately.

For best results, always try a small, discreet area before full application. To apply in full, we recommend using the Osmo Flat Brush, Floor Brush, Roller or Fleece Applicator with Hand Pad Holder. Do not thin the oil, simply apply a thin coat along the wood grain and spread well. Leave to dry for between 8-10 hours with good ventilation. After drying, apply a second coat thinly. After 2-3 weeks the surface will be fully cured. If applying to a surface that has already been oiled, one coat is enough. Do not apply too generously or drying times will be extended.

OSMO Polyx Oil enhances the natural tone of wood, offering a permanent wet effect. Available in four finishes, matt, satin, gloss and semi-matt, wood surfaces treated with Polyx®-Oil are highly repellent and easy to maintain.

Please note that for dark and extractive-rich hardwoods (e.g. Wenge, Merbau, Jatoba etc.), we recommend using Osmo Wood Wax Finish Clear Extra Thin instead and for cork surfaces, due to their high absorbency please ensure that the wood finish is applied especially thinly. On cork, longer drying times are to be taken into consideration (at least 24 hours).

Caution: Apply max. one coat thinly to cabinet interiors and drawers with a cloth.

If a higher gloss level is desired use Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner very thinly and polish when dry. Avoid using Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner on surfaces that have not dried and cured properly. Using general or multi-purpose cleaners will increase the frequency of maintenance and recoating, instead we suggest Osmo Wash and Care. Allow finish to fully cure before heavy usage.
