FAQs
How often should I apply Rapide Teak Oil?
For optimal protection, apply the oil at least twice a year, or before each season. More frequent applications may be necessary depending on the weather conditions and the exposure of your furniture.
Can I use this on indoor furniture?
While designed for exterior use, Rapide Teak Oil can be used on some indoor wooden furniture. However, always test on an inconspicuous area first.
How do I clean my furniture before applying the oil?
Use a wood cleaner suitable for your furniture. Ensure the furniture is completely dry before applying the oil.
What should I do if the spray nozzle clogs?
Wipe the nozzle clean with a cloth. If it remains clogged, try replacing the nozzle with a new one.
Is sanding necessary before applying the oil?
Light sanding can help with absorption and evenness, especially on older or weathered furniture. However, it's not always necessary.
How long does it take for the oil to dry?
The oil typically takes a few hours to dry to the touch, but it may take longer to fully absorb into the wood. Avoid using the furniture until it's completely dry.
What is the coverage of a 400ml can?
Coverage depends on the wood type and the application method. A 400ml can will typically cover a medium-sized furniture set with several applications.
Where should I store the product?
Store the spray can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep out of reach of children.
Troubleshooting
Oil not absorbing properly.
Ensure the wood is clean and dry before application. Apply a thinner coat and allow more time for absorption.
Streaking or uneven finish.
Shake the can well before use and apply evenly. If streaks persist, try lightly sanding the surface before reapplication.
Faded color after application.
Multiple coats may be needed to restore the color. Ensure the first coat is fully absorbed before applying additional coats.
