The natural alternative to polyurethane. A hard wearing, clear finish for interior wooden and cork flooring, timber furniture and exposed beams. Available in 4 levels of sheen.
The combination of natural oils and waxes penetrate deeply into the surface of the timber creating a finish as durable as polyurethane, and far easier to repair and rejuvenate. The mircroprous nature of Osmo Polyx-Oil allows timber to breath so that finish will not crack, peel or blister.

OSMO ADVICE
Osmo's Polyx®-Oil is suitable for a variety of timber types - both hardwood and softwood - such as Pine, Kauri, Oak, Eucalyptus, Teak, Jarrah and Douglas Fir (Oregon).
For timbers which are oily by nature, such as some species of Eucalypt, Kwila/Merbau and Rosewood etc, it is recommended that the timber's surface be wiped over with a solvent to remove any oil present, before applying Polyx Oil. A suitable solvent would be Osmo's Brush Cleaner and Thinner.
Coats should be applied 12 - 24 hours apart. The preferred method of application is by good quality bristle brush. Osmo's floor brush applicators are ideal. A low nap microfibre roller may also be used. Please read the data sheet for details. Liquid Wax Cleaner is recommended for buffing and rejuvenating the timber when needed.
