• GISCODE Ö10+,
• EU Decopaint compliant
• LFGB-tested (tested for food contact)
• DIN EN 71-3 (Safety of toys)
• DIN 53160 (resistant to saliva and perspiration)
• Free from formaldehyde, aromatics, biocides, preservatives, cobalt and oximes

Preparation

• Sand the surface professionally and remove dust.
• Final sanding of wood for furniture up to max. P180
• For fine sanding, application with OLI-NATURA Hardener (5:1) is recommended.
• Wood moisture content: 8–12%.
• Color effect, enhancement and oil absorption vary depending on the type of wood and sanding pattern.
  

Note:
Before the final sanding of the wood, wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth using OLI-NATURA PreOilCleaner. Removes sanding residue and reduces reactions caused by tannins. Then allow to dry for at least 2 hours.

If pre-treated with OLI-NATURA Reactive Stain “Antique”, do not wet the surface and do not use PreOilCleaner.

Application

• Shake or stir well before use.
• (Optional) For the 2K application, mix oil and OLI-NATURA Hardener at a ratio of 5:1. Apply immediately. Pot life approx. 2–3 hours. Do not pour excess material back into the container.
• For wood-epoxy surfaces, fine sanding and applications subject to increased moisture exposure, application with OLI-NATURA Hardener is recommended.
• Apply the oil thinly and work it in evenly with a beige pad. For large areas, distribute it beforehand with a squeegee if necessary.
• Allow to penetrate for 15–30 minutes.
• Polish off excess material dry with a white pad. If there is a large excess of material, remove it beforehand with a cloth or scrape it off with a rubber squeegee.
• For wood-epoxy surfaces: Remove excess material from resin surfaces and polish dry, as epoxy resin does not absorb oil.
• If necessary, repolish the following day with a white pad and 5–10 ml/m² of oil.

Coverage

• 1 coat with approx. 20–40 g/m² (approx. 25–50 m²/L).
• Coverage varies depending on the type of wood, sanding pattern and absorbency.

Drying

• Depending on temperature and humidity, dust-dry after 1–2 hours and fully cured after 5–7 days.
• Using OLI-NATURA Hardener reduces the curing time to 2–3 days.
• During this time, protect from water and handle gently.

Cleaning & Storage

Clean tools immediately after use with OLI-NATURA brush cleaner, OLI-NATURA Oil Thinner or white spirit.

Can be stored for at least 36 months when unopened. Store in a cool, dry and frost-free place. Close opened containers immediately and use promptly.

⚠ Safety

Oil-soaked cloths may spontaneously combust.
After use, store them in an airtight container or submerge them in water.

Care & Cleaning

Protect freshly oiled surfaces from water until fully cured.

For routine cleaning, remove dust dry and wipe with a slightly damp cloth if needed. For heavier soiling, use OLI-NATURA wood soap.

To freshen up the surface, use OLI-NATURA Refresher, OLI-NATURA wood care oil, or the original oil.

Scratches and signs of use can be repaired by sanding the affected area and re-oiling.

The product is not subject to labeling requirements and, pursuant to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, is not classified as hazardous. Not classified as dangerous goods; no GHS pictograms or signal words are required.

Oil-soaked rags/pads can spontaneously ignite due to heat accumulation! Therefore, clean them immediately after use or store them under water. P102 Keep out of reach of children. 

Does Worktop-Oil change the color of the wood?

Yes. The pigment-free oil intensifies the natural wood color and highlights the wood's grain and texture. In woodworking, this effect is known as grain enhancement.

Is the oil suitable for wood with epoxy resin inlays?

Yes. Thanks to its high transparency, OLI-NATURA Worktop-Oil is ideal for wood and epoxy surfaces. For maximum durability, we recommend applying it with OLI-NATURA Hardener (5:1), especially for river tables and fine sanding finishes.

Can I treat wooden washbasins and vanity tops with Worktop-Oil?

Yes. For vanity tops and wooden surfaces exposed to increased moisture, we recommend applying it with OLI-NATURA Hardener (5:1). The 2K system increases water and cream resistance and provides a more durable surface.

For optimal results, pre-treat the wood surface with OLI-NATURA PreOilCleaner before oiling.

Can I apply Worktop-Oil with a brush?

We recommend applying it with a spatula or rubber squeegee. This allows the required small amount to be applied evenly and in a controlled manner. Then work the oil in with a beige pad and, after 15–30 minutes, buff off excess material dry.
