    Instructions
    It is important that both wood and oil are at a temperature of at least 59°F, and ideally about 68°F, and that air humidity is approx. 50 %. Make sure that the room is well-ventilated, for optimal evaporation and drying time. 

    Always remember to test on a less visible spot to check the compatibility of the surface with the product.

     

    Maintenance Gel to re-oil a surface

    1. Thoroughly clean the surface with Intensive Wood Cleaner, mixed 1:20. Then wash with clean water. After cleaning, leave the surface to dry for at least 8-9 hours
    2. Sand the surface with 180 and vacuum clean the surface thoroughly.
    3. Apply an appropriate amount of gel to a Hand Scrubber Flex Kit White and distribute over the surface in a thin, even coat. Continue polishing until the wood seems saturated and the surface has a uniform appearance. It is recommended to work on small areas at a time, as the gel is quick-drying. For larger areas (floors larger than 40 sq.ft./L) it would be advantageous to use a polishing machine.
    4. Remove excess Maintenance Gel with dry, lint-free cotton cloths or pads until the surface no longer appears wet.
    5. If the wood does not seem fully saturated after 4-6 hours, repolish with less gel than the first treatment, but follow the same procedure.
    6. Wait 4-6 hours before using the surface. Avoid getting water or dirt on the wooden surface for the next 3 days .
    Make sure to do a more thorough final polishing to remove all excess gel.
