FAQs

Is Nordicare Sealing Wood Oil suitable for all types of garden furniture?

Yes, it is designed for all outdoor wood types, including teak, acacia, and others commonly used for garden furniture.

Can I use this oil on indoor wooden furniture?

No, this product is specifically formulated for outdoor use and is not recommended for interior wood applications.

How often should I reapply the wood oil?

Reapplication is typically recommended annually. However, in areas with harsh weather conditions (heavy rain or intense sun), more frequent application may be necessary to maintain optimal protection.

What is the best way to apply the oil?

Apply evenly with a brush, cloth, or sponge. Allow it to penetrate, then wipe off any excess that hasn't been absorbed by the wood.

How long does the oil take to dry?

The drying time can vary based on temperature and humidity. Generally, it is recommended to let the oil penetrate for 15-30 minutes before wiping off excess. A second coat can be applied after the first has dried.

What should I do if the wood looks blotchy after application?

Blotchiness usually means uneven absorption. Ensure all excess oil was wiped off thoroughly. You might need to apply a second coat evenly once the first is dry.

Does this oil provide UV protection?

Yes, the formulation helps protect against UV rays and general weathering, reducing fading and degradation of the wood.

Troubleshooting

Wood surface appears blotchy after application

This usually indicates uneven absorption. Ensure excess oil was wiped off thoroughly after the penetration time. A second, even application may be needed after the first coat has fully dried.

Wood still looks dull or dry after oiling

The wood may have been very dry and absorbed all the oil. Apply another coat, ensuring to leave it on for the recommended penetration time and wipe off excess. Ensure the wood was properly prepared and free of contaminants.

Oil application leaves a sticky residue

Too much oil was applied, or it was not wiped off sufficiently after penetration. Ensure all excess is removed with a clean cloth. If residue is dry and sticky, it may need to be lightly sanded and re-oiled.
