DESCRIPTION
These are penetrating and finishing oils designed
to deepen and enhance the natural grain of timber. They
give a matt or satin finish and can be used on any interior
wooden surface which is not subjected to heavy wear.
Bio Red Oil contains a natural red plant dye which reddens
the timber surface and is deepening the natural tone
and colour. Bio Natural Wood Oil and Bio Red Oil can
be used as complete finishes, or in conjunction with
other Bio products (see below). These oils should not
be used on alkaline surfaces, plaster, concrete or fibro-cement.
If considering use on other materials (such as brick,
ceramic or
cork), test-strips should be made to assess suitability.
PREPARATION
Surfaces should be well-sanded, dry and cleaned of
greasy, waxy and dirty contaminants using BIO Thinner.
Do not apply coatings to unseasoned
or wet timber. Imperfect coats may require complete
stripping before applying BIO Products. round off sharp
edges. It is also good practice to prime back surfaces.
Hardwoods and other timbers
rich in natural oils, waxes, acids and terpenes should
be degreased using BIO Thinner because these substances
may mix with the oils and prolong its drying time.
APPLICATION
Brush, dip or spray BIO Oils working them 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. Drying time 24 hours. Do not use when
temperature is below +10C and/or the relative humidity
is above 80%; e.g. cold damp conditions; when condensation,
rain, dew or frost are likely to occur;
on hot days; in direct sunlight or on hot surfaces. Bio OILS may
penetrate timber pores more easily if warmed to 60 +C. For matt
finish apply one coat, for satin finish apply three
coats. Repair and refinish by applying additional coats.
Provide adequate ventilation during application and
drying.
