OSMO 410 UV-Protection Oil – Clear .75L

Osmo UV-Protection Oil is a clear, satin wood finish based on natural oil for all vertical wood in outdoor areas (dimensionally stable and instable). Microporous surface allows the wood to breathe and reduces swelling and shrinkage. Water-repellent, will not crack, peel or flake. Simply apply without sanding. Easy and seamless application. Finish stays workable while coating. As topcoat on already color treated wood, Osmo UVProtection Oil prolongs the renovation intervals significantly. As a single product application, it blocks the graying process on vertical surfaces with a UV protection factor 12 in comparison to untreated wood when two coats are applied. The dry finish is safe for humans, animals and plants (resistant to saliva and perspiration acc. German DIN 53160, suitable for children’s toys acc. EN 71.3).

RECOMMENDED USE
Osmo UV-Protection Oil is ideal for all vertical wood surfaces in outdoor areas: doors, windows, window shutters (dimensionally stable), carports, wood siding, balconies, fences, pergolas, and sheds (dimensionally unstable).

STORAGE
Up to 5 years and longer if can is kept dry and closed tightly. If thickened by frost, store for 24-36 hours at room temperature before use.

SURFACE PREPARATION
Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (moisture content max. 20%). Clean old microporous finishes. Remove previous layers of varnish. The finished surface is influenced by several factors, including the condition of the wood. Therefore, a trial application is always recommended, especially for unfamiliar surfaces.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Osmo UV-Protection Oil is ready to use. Do not thin. Stir well before use. With Osmo Hand Brush or Osmo Microfibre Roller, apply thinly along the wood grain and spread well. Allow to dry for approx. 12 hours under good ventilation. Then apply the second coat as before. When recoating color-treated surfaces, or for renovation works, one coat applied to the clean and dry surface is usually sufficient. Ensure the surface has been cleaned prior to application.

COVERAGE
2.50 Liter will cover approx. 480 ft² with one coat. Coverage will vary depending on the type, age and texture of the wood.

NOTE
New wood, containing natural wood extractives (oils and resins) and especially hard wood must be weathered (for approximately 6 weeks) prior to application. For areas exposed to strong weathering, such as weatherboard, post caps or window sills, please expect significantly shorter renovation intervals. Vertical elements mounted onto horizontal wood should have at least a 15 degree angle. Sharp edges must be rounded (radius > 2 mm). If the greying process has already begun, degrey the surface with Osmo Wood Reviver Power Gel and refinish with 2 coats of Osmo UV-Protection Oil. To achieve the UV protection factor 12, it is necessary to apply 2 coats of UV Protection Oil. With only one coat on untreated wood, the life of the coating is significantly shorter.
