Well wood and concrete mixed are the cornerstone materials of the industrial aesthetic that is huge at the moment. Concrete and stone is being used more and more, in projects such as floors, table tops, kitchen worktops and even concrete flower pots. But first.. What is Osmo 610? Let&#8217;s find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>What is it?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Osmo Concrete Oil is a blend of natural oils and waxes which form a water and dirt repellent barrier on screed, unglazed tiles, artificial and natural stone and as the name suggests concrete surfaces. One of the main benefits of Osmo Concrete Oil is it greatly reduces dust on these surfaces, and protects against staining which can prove costly to rectify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Water test<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll start with a very handy little test called the water test. The logic behind this test is simple, it helps us establish whether the surface is bare or previously treated. All you need to do is apply a drop of water onto the surface and leave it for 30 seconds. If the water beads, you know there is an existing finish that will need to be removed. If the water soaks in you can move straight onto application! It\u2019s genuinely that easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Look<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Osmo Concrete Oil dries to a satin finish, that enhances the beauty of concrete and stone, bringing out and enriching the colour. To make sure the product matches your desired aesthetic, Osmo has handy 5ml samples to put your mind to rest, just don&#8217;t forget to try this in an inconspicuous area<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>P.A.R.S.E<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don&#8217;t have to worry about over application of the Osmo Concrete Oil, when you&#8217;re using my favorite, the P.A.R.S.E. Method.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>P<\/strong>repare properly &#8211; clean and remove any dirt and previous finish<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A<\/strong>pply thinly &#8211; always work in manageable areas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>R<\/strong>emove excess &#8211; using a microfibre cloth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>S<\/strong>and lightly &#8211; abrade the surface with a finishing pad<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>E<\/strong>nd coat &#8211; Apply and leave to dry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Simple enough, right? If you choose not to follow the P.A.R.S.E method, there are a number of over application issues you may face, such as\u2026 longer drying times, a sticky and unpleasant surface, A patchy, rough finish Or Pooling on the surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Outro<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re seeking technical assistance or advice on your project, why not put us to the test and give us a call or email?
