Maintenance of Oiled Wooden Floors
Introducing the new, improved Maintenance Oil
We have developed our new Maintenance Oil with a strong focus on performance, working environment and sustainability – resulting in a significantly improved product for professionals.
As part of our sustainability efforts, we have also transitioned from traditional metal buckets to PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) plastic cans. By incorporating recycled plastic into our packaging, we reduce the consumption of virgin raw materials and lower the environmental impact of the product, while maintaining the same high quality and durability that professionals expect.
The result is a modern maintenance oil solution that combines outstanding performance with a more sustainable packaging choice.
What is new?
The upgraded formula delivers clear benefits in both application and long-term performance:
- Higher solids content for enhanced durability and protection
- Low VOC content – only 125 g/L (GIS: Ö40)
- Reduced odour during and after application
- Outstanding coverage – up to 35 m²/L (previously 12 m²/L)
- Future-proof binders that meet current and upcoming environmental requirements
Same product – upgraded performance
You get the same trusted Maintenance Oil
– now with better performance, improved working conditions, and a stronger sustainability profile.
Worksteps
Product, room and floor temperature should be between 15-35°C. Ensure good ventilation at all times during the application and drying time.
Always remember to test on a less visible spot to check the compatibility of the surface with the product.
- Clean the floor with 125 ml Intensive Wood Cleaner mixed into 2.5 L water. Leave the floor to dry for at least 7-8 hours. The floor must be completely dry.
- Shake the container well before use.
- Apply approx. 1 dl of Maintenance Oil per 4 m² floor using a pad, short-bristled paint roller (3-4 mm) or a polishing machine with a white or beige pad on slightly larger areas.
- It is important that Maintenance Oil is carefully polished into the wood. Continue polishing until the wood appears saturated and the surface looks uniform.
- Wipe down the floor with clean, dry cotton cloths before proceeding with the next section of floor to be finished. The floor should not appear wet and there should not be any excess oil left on the surface after polishing.
- Continue stepwise till the floor has been finished.
- When polished with polishing machine the floor will be pre-hardened after 4 hours and may cautiously be taken into use. Manually polished floors may be taken into use after 24-48 hours.
Do not clean the floor or expose it to water during the first 3 days, while the oil is curing.
