FAQs
Can this be used on softwood?
While formulated for hardwood, it can be used on softwood, but may require more frequent applications as softwood is more porous.
How long does it take to dry?
The surface will typically be touch-dry in a few hours, but it is recommended to wait 24 hours before heavy use.
Can I apply this over paint?
No, this product is designed for bare wood. It will not penetrate through paint or varnish.
Is this safe for indoor furniture?
Yes, it is suitable for indoor wooden furniture, provided the wood is not sealed with a topcoat like lacquer.
How often should I re-oil my outdoor furniture?
For optimal protection, re-oil your outdoor furniture at the start and end of the summer season.
Do I need to sand the wood between coats?
A very light sanding with high-grit sandpaper between coats can help achieve a smoother, more professional finish.
Troubleshooting
Surface remains sticky after application
You likely applied too much oil; wipe away the excess with a clean, dry cloth and let it cure for an additional 24 hours.
Oil is not absorbing into the wood
The wood may still have a factory finish, varnish, or old wax layer; you must sand the surface down to bare wood for the oil to penetrate.
Uneven finish or patches
This occurs if the wood was unevenly sanded or if the oil was applied inconsistently; lightly sand the patchy areas and re-apply a thin, uniform coat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply, ensure the wood surface is dust-free and dry. Apply the oil generously using a clean, lint-free cloth or a natural bristle brush, moving in the direction of the grain. Allow the oil to penetrate for 10-15 minutes, then wipe away any excess product that hasn't soaked in to prevent a tacky surface. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. This product is compatible with most hardwoods but should not be used on wood that has been previously varnished or lacquered without first removing the old coating.
