- Attached the spray nozzle directly to the oil container
- Working in small sections, spray an even film of maintenance oil onto the wooden surface
- Using the applicator pad provided, polish in well, following the grain of the wood wherever possible
- A buffing machine can be used for larger areas
- Wipe off any excess with the clean, lint-free cloth supplied
- Then continue onto the next section
The finished area can be subjected to light use after 4 - 6 hours, if polished with a machine or 24 - 48 hours if polished by hand. It won't be fully cured for a further 3 days, so will need to be protected from dirt and water to prevent staining and discoloration. Any spills should be wiped up immediately. The following precautions should be taken in the first 3 days of use:
- Do not cover (use protective sheets) or lay rugs onto the area
- Do not move heavy furniture around
- Immediately wipe up any water or other liquid spillages and take particular care with flower pots
- Subsequently, appropriate protective measures (i.e. felt pads) should be taken for table and chair legs or other objects which could mark the floor
- If applicable, a quality doormat at the entrance will be of benefit
Please Note: Newly oiled floors should not be cleaned with water or cleaning solutions for the first few days whilst curing. Remove dust with a vacuum cleaner, brush or cloth (do not use impregnated fabrics)
