Application
Applying the Osmo Polyx®-Oil Effect RAW too generously and insufficient ventilation lead to delays in drying time and the typical smell of oil. Any brush strokes can be removed with an unused dry Microfibre Roller within 30 minutes after applying. The natural colour tone of wood is preserved – Osmo Polyx®-Oil Effect RAW does not enhance the tone of wood, no permanent wet effect. On dark/reddish wood species, Osmo Polyx®-Oil Effect RAW is visible as slightly white chalky surface. A trial application is recommended. For extractive-rich hardwoods (e.g. Wenge, Merbau, Jatoba etc.), we recommend using Osmo Wood Wax Finish Clear Extra Thin. A trial application is recommended. Caution: Apply max. one coat thinly to cabinet interiors and drawers with a cloth.
If excessively applied, or if the surface has been sanded to a very fine grade of sandpaper - the white pigments can show visibly in some areas. To avoid, sand the surface to P120 and apply very thinly along the grain and spread well.
Polyx®-Oil Effect 3044 RAW is designed for lightly coloured, sanded or raw wood only. Two coats are recommended.
