Liberon Superior Decking Oil

Description

Liberon Superior Decking Oil offers great UV protection with long lasting deep colour penetration, it will revive feed and enhance new and old decking. A superb system from decking and other out door timber products.

Preparation
Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from previous finishes and dust. Lightly sand new wood and clean old wood with Tough Deck Clean & Revive.

Application
Stir well before use. Apply a generous coat of Decking Oil with a paint brush or roller. Allow to penetrate for 15 to 30 minutes then apply the second coat without waiting for the first to dry. Continue to apply more coats of Decking Oil until the timber no longer absorbs the oil. Wipe any excess with a lint-free cotton cloth and allow to dry for 24 to 48 hours before using the decking.

Important
Oil finishes bring out the natural colours of timber. A wet surface will be an indication of the final colour. Always test the product on a spare surface or inconspicuous area for colour, compatibility and end result.

Cleaning and maintenance
For general maintenance clean with Decking Clean & Revive. We recommend applying one or two coats of Decking Oil once a year as routine maintenance. On high traffic areas re-apply one or two coats of Decking Oil as and when required.

Precautions
Wear suitable clothing and protective gloves when using Decking Oil.
Store Decking Oil at a temperature above 5°C. Always replace the lid otherwise the oil can deteriorate.
Oily cloths can self-combust. Do not leave impregnated cloths in bundles. Before discarding the cloths lay them flat outside to dry to avoid a fire hazard.
May not be suitable for some foreign hardwoods. Please contact us for advice on your specific type of hardwood.
On exterior oak we recommend the use of Pure Tung Oil.

How often do I need to re-coat my decking?

Decking treated with Liberon Decking Oil will require recoating at least once or preferably twice a year (spring and autumn) depending on the climate where the decking is laid and how much use it is subject to.

Can I apply Anti-Slip Coating over Decking Oil?

No. We do not recommend applying Anti-Slip Coating on top of Decking Oil as it traps the oil underneath which can cause flaking and peeling. Prior to applying Anti-Slip Coating the decking should be cleaned thoroughly with Tough Deck Clean and Revive and left to dry for 24 hours before applying Anti-Slip Coating.
