Rustins Danish Oil

Description

Rustins Danish Oil. An oil finish, suitable for all types of wood. It differs from Teak Oil in that it contains special ingredients which prevent it drying to a gloss. It is an easy to use wipe on finish, which brings out the beauty of the timber.

Rustins Danish Oil is a blend of oils, resins and driers, formulated to produce an attractive and durable satin finish. Primarily for interior bare wood and joinery. May be used outside as a primer-sealer under exterior coatings or alone as a high maintenance finish where it will require additional coats and regular maintenance.

Preparation

• The bare wood must be clean, smooth, dry and free from wax, dust and contaminants.
• Remove wax or surface oil from oily timbers such as Teak and Iroko by scrubbing with white spirit and a scouring pad, then wipe away whilst still wet with clean rags.
• Remove existing paint and varnishes.
• Bare wood may be dyed before coating with Rustin Wood Dye. Do not apply with Knotting.

Application

• STIR WELL BEFORE USE or product will dry to a gloss finish.
• Apply liberally with a clean rag or brush and wipe off the surplus oil after a few minutes.
• Nibs may be removed from the final coat by applying oil with a scouring pad, rubbing in the direction of the
  grain, then wiping away the surplus with clean rags or paper kitchen towels.
• Apply 3 coats to bare wood.
• Drying Time: Approximately 4-6 hours depending on temperature and humidity.
• Re-coat once the previous coat is dry.
• Application Temp. Ideally 15-25°C, do not apply below 5°C.
• Coverage: Approximately 14 square metres per litre per coat depending on the absorbency of the wood.

Maintenance

Periodic re-oiling is required. Clean surfaces before re-oiling using White Spirit.
