DESCRIPTION: A breathing, satin, water-repellent,
oil based finish for use on interior timber, cork, unglazed floor
tiles and porous stone surfaces. Bio Teak Oil can be used as a
complete finish. Do not use on alkaline surfaces, plaster,
concrete, fibro cement or in a constantly humid environment. Test
strips should be made on other materials such as brick and ceramic
tiles.
PREPARATION: Do not apply coatings to unseasoned or
wet timber. Wood should be well sanded, dry and cleaned of greasy,
waxy and dirty contaminants using BIO Thinner. Round off sharp
edges. It is also good practice to prime back surfaces. Hardwoods
and timbers rich in natural oils, waxes, acids and terpenes should
be degreased using Bio Thinner to ensure these substances do not
mix with the varnish and prolong its drying time. Let dry for 24
hours. Imperfect coats may require complete stripping before
applying BIO products. Final sanding before application should be
done with sandpaper grade 120 or 180.
APPLICATION: Use a brush, roller or can be sprayed.
If the timber has not been installed it can be bathed so that
maximum penetration can be achieved with the timper soaking up the
oil on both sides in the oil bath. Do not apply more than the
surface can absorb. Maintain a wet edge when painting. Remove
excess oil with a dry lint free cloth after 10-20 Minutes. Apply
one to two thin coat, or up to four thin coats on highly absorbent
surfaces. Allow first coat to dry for 24-48 hours. Sand lightly
with fine-grain sandpaper, then repeat the process with each
coat. When using on floor boards start to polish the oil
immediately after you have removed the excess oil. Do not use when
the temperature is below 10+ C and/or the relative humidity is
above 80% e.g. cold damp conditions, or when condensation,
frost are likely to occur or hot days and direct sunlight and hot
surfaces. Provide adequate ventilation during application and
drying.
VARIATION OF USES:
DRYING: Touch dry after 5-7 hours. Do not walk on
treated floors for 3 days. Normal use after 7-10 days.
FINISHING TREATMENT: For greater protection, a thin
coat of BIO ANTIQUE WAX or BIO HARD FLOOR WAX may be applied after
drying. For regular maintenance of floor boards use BIO TIMBER CARE
POLISH.
INGREDIENTS: Based on plant oils, resins, essential
oils, paraffin oil and lead free drying agent.
COVERAGE: 1 L covers approx. 8-12 sqm, depending on
the absorbency of the substrate. Note: On timber floors
only: Softwood approx. 20-30 sqm & Hardwood approx. 25-40
sqm.
PACKAGING: 1 L and 4 L.
STORAGE: Keep tightly sealed in a cool, dry place.
Decant remains into a smaller container to minimise reaction with
air, as skin may form once container has been opened.
DISPOSAL: Do not pour left over oil down the drain.
Unwanted oil should be brushed out on newspaper, allowed to dry and
then disposed of via domestic waste collection. Let empty container
dry out well and dispose via recycling program.
PRECAUTION: Keep away from open flames and out of
the reach of children. Please dispose of used rags in a sealed
metal container. Can spontaneously combust.
