Wood:
Preparation - Wood must be dry, solid, able to absorb, finely sanded (floors 180 grain, furniture 240 grain), clean, and free of resin and dust. For large-pored woods (oak, ash, chestnut, elm, mahogany, or teak), brush out pore grooves carefully. A test coat is recommended for woods containing tannic acid or dye. Glue and other adhesives must be absolutely dry.
Application - Depending upon requirements and absorbency: 1 - 3 coats with a drying time of 12 - 24 hours between coats. After approximately 20 - 30 minutes remove unabsorbed oil with a lint-free cloth, to assure an even gloss and equal surface drying conditions. Products suitable for subsequent treatment: BILO Floor Wax No. 303; BEKOS Wax No. 312 or BIVOS Oil Wax No. 375. In splash-prone and moist areas, and on wooden counter tops, use only ARDVOS Wood Oil No. 266 without a subsequent wax coating.

OSB: For OSB-boards, follow instructions for wood surface preparation and application. Apply 3 coats sparingly. The removal of excess oil may prove difficult because of the wood-strand structure. For coloration: 1 coat KALDET Transparent Wood Stain No. 270, 3 coats ARDVOS Wood Oil No. 266

Furniture Renovation:Pore-clogging old coatings (oil-based paint, lacquers, coating varnishes) as well as wax coatings must be removed by sanding or stripping until there is no old residue, the surface must be solid, absorbent, clean, and free of dust. Open-pored old coatings must be cleaned and, if necessary, sanded, and must be tested for absorbency and ability to take a new coating. Pay close attention during treatment to spot potential problems. Maintenance should be done according to wear, about 1-2 times annually. Rub or polish on a thin coat of ARDVOS.

Important tips: Stir thoroughly. Skim off film. Apply a test coat. Ventilate well during application and drying. Insufficient supply of oxygen and light, cabinet interiors treated with products containing linseed oil often experience drying delays, causing a long-lasting odour of linseed oil. Products more suitable for this purpose are shellac (LANDIS No. 701 / BELOS No. 706), GORMOS Wax Oil No. 267or KALDET Transparent Wood Stain No. 270. Saturate thoroughly with Wood Oil to prevent stains and spots caused by water.
On oak wood and other woods containing incompatibilities such as tannic acid or dyes, or wood that has been sanded, stripped, pre-treated, or stained discoloration is possible and will show up within a week. For glued crosscut wood, observe a treated test area for two days, because the glue may dissolve. Surfaces treated with ARDVOS should be cleaned using LIVOS products such as TRENA Neutral Cleaner, avoid microfiber or similar materials. A smooth, finely sanded surface will reduce the amount of product needed, surface wear and soiling.
