DESCRIPTION
A penetrating oil for priming all absorbent interior
surfaces, especially new wood, cork and unglazed stone
tiles. Very suitable as a preliminary treatment under
waxed, varnished or oiled finishes. For oiled finish
see Bio Natural Wood Oil or Bio Teak Oil.
PREPARATION
Do not apply coatings to
unseasoned or wet timber. Wood should be well sanded, dry
and cleaned of greasy, waxy and dirty contaminants using
BIO Thinner.
Round off sharp edges. It is also
good practice to prime back surfaces. Hardwoods and timbers rich in natural
oils, waxes, acids and terpenes should be degreased
using Bio Thinner because these substances may mix with
the varnish and prolong its drying time.
Let dry for 24 hours. Imperfect coats
may require complete stripping before applying BIO
Products.
APPLICATION
Brush thinly and evenly, working
varnish well into the grain. Do not apply more
oil than the surface can absorb.
Maintain a wet edge when painting. Remove excess oil with
a dry lint free cloth after approx. 15-30 minutes. Test
the absorbency of the surface before application: for
very absorbent timber, work in small areas otherwise
the oil might dry before you are able to wipe off the
excess, causing an uneven patchy finish.
Low temperature and humid conditions
prolong the drying time. Do not
paint
below 10C and/or above 80% humidity,
in cold damp conditions, when condensation,
rain, dew or frost are likely to occur,
or hot days, in direct sunlight and on hot surfaces. Provide adequate
ventilation during application and drying.
Maximum durability is reached after 21 days.
DRYING
Can be sanded after 24 hours, after which time treatment
can continue. However, the oil takes up to
72 hours
to dry completely.
COVERAGE
1 Litre covers approx. 10-12 sqm. Note: Coverage varies
greatly with the absorbency of the material being primed.
Cross-cut, and other open-grained surfaces require considerably
more oil.
CLEANING
Use
BIO Thinner.
PACKAGING
1, 4 and 20 Litres.
INGREDIENTS
Plant oils.
STORAGE
Keep tightly sealed in a cool and dry place. Surface
skin may develop in opened cans.
PAINT
DISPOSAL

leftover oil down the drain. Unwanted oil should be
brushed out on newspaper, allowed to dry and then

container dry out as well and dispose of via recycling
program.
