Osmo Polyx Oil Original 3032│3062│3065│3011

Cleaning:

Wood surfaces treated with Osmo Polyx oil are easy to maintain, most spills can simply be wiped up with a damp cloth. For regular cleaning we recommend using Osmo spray cleaner (8026) for small areas or add Osmo Wash and Care concentrate to water and clean the surface with a damp (not wet!) mop or Osmo Cleaning Kit. There is also an Osmo Spray Mop where the cleaning fluid is pre-mixed and easy to apply.

Use Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner to remove tough stains, this also helps to clean and regenerate the surface at the same time, this also can be applied using the Osmo Cleaning Kit.

Do not use aggressive cleaners or washing up liquid to clean surfaces treated with Osmo Polyx oil as they will remove the coating.

Do not use steam cleaners to clean floors treated with Polyx oil as it will permanently damage the coating.

Maintenance of Osmo Polyx Oil Treated Surfaces:

1. Regular damp mopping with Osmo Wash and Care will clean normal dirt build up on the floor or treated surface. Depending on the amount of dirt to be cleaned the Osmo Wash and Care should be diluted with water and damp mopped as recommended using the Osmo Cleaning Kit and Osmo Telescopic Handle or using the pre diluted Spray Fix Cartridges and the Osmo Spray Mop system. Worktops, furniture and other small areas can be cleaned with Osmo Interior spray Cleaner. The natural plant based oils found in these Osmo cleaning products also have a moisturising effect on the timber so contribute to the life of the coating.
   
   
2. For Periodical surface refreshing and intensive cleaning we recommend Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner, this can be applied with the Osmo Cleaning Kit and Osmo Telescopic Handle or for intense spot cleaning use the White Osmo Superpads and either the Hand Pad Holder or Floor Jointed Pad Holder. Please note on white treated surfaces only the white version of Liquid Wax Cleaner should be used.
   
   
3. Maintenance and renewal of Polyx Oil. Over time heavily worn areas will require a maintenance coat to restore the original finish and appearance. No sanding back is normally required and a maintenance coat can be applied to clean surfaces as described above.

Please Note:

Like all oils Osmo Polyx Oils (3032, 3062, 3065 & 3011) will enhance the natural tone of the wood and will give the wood an appearance similar to when its wet, so we always advise that a test area is required before the main application to ensure it is the appearance you are looking for.

If you apply the product too generously and with insufficient ventilation it will lead to significant delays in drying.

For dark and naturally oil rich hardwoods (e.g. Mahogany, Teak, Iroko, Wenge, Merbau, Jatoba etc.) we recommend using Osmo Wood Wax Finish Clear Extra Thin. A trial application is always recommended.

When applying to cork surfaces, because of their high absorbency please always ensure that the wood finish is applied especially thinly and allow for much longer drying times (at least 24 hours).

When apply Osmo Polyx oil to furniture interiors or drawers apply just a single coat using a lint free cloth.

If a higher gloss level is wanted wait until the Polyx oil is thoroughly dry and then apply a thin coat of Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner and polish when dry.
