Care & cleaning for oiled wood

FOR REGULAR CLEANING OF OILED WOODEN SURFACES Footprints, food stains, adhering dirt - oiled wood has to withstand quite a lot in everyday use. Usually, a dry cloth or clear water is sufficient.

This preserves the natural character of the wood - it can be used undiluted or diluted in a variety of ways. Which wooden surfaces is OLI NATURA® wood soap suitable for?

Wellness for wood: This naturally curing maintenance oil for oiled wood surfaces has many beneficial properties: It refreshes the “faded” color of the wood, gives the surface new depth and radiance, absorbs very quickly, and replenishes the pores with fresh oil. This renews the protective effect and, consequently, the resistance of the surface. It is particularly recommended for initial care and refreshing parquet and plank floors, stairs, and indoor wooden furniture treated with oxidatively drying impregnating oils. The natural oil-based maintenance oil is not pigmented. Nevertheless, it enhances the wood’s grain and color.

OLI NATURA® Furniture Wax for Wood: Traditional Wax Care, Reinterpreted for Today  A classic from our Heritage Collection, reimagined. For generations, natural waxes have preserved the beauty of valuable furniture and antiques. »OLI NATURA Furniture Wax« continues this tradition in a contemporary way with beeswax and carnauba wax. The solvent-free hard wax gives wood a velvety feel and protects it with a fine, water-repellent wax layer. Applied thinly and polished after drying, it develops a gentle to silky sheen. Which wooden surfaces is OLI NATURA® Furniture Wax suitable for? The colorless, unpigmented wood wax is suitable for the initial treatment of raw wood as well as for caring for oiled, stained, or waxed wooden surfaces indoors. It enhances furniture, antiques, picture frames, wooden mouldings, carvings, and turned woodwork. Its mild odor also makes it suitable for the inside of cabinets and drawers. Other applications include surfaces finished with chalk paint, wooden toys, cutting boards, wooden cooking spoons, and other wooden kitchen utensils. If the type of wood or previous treatment is unknown, first test the product on a small area. How does OLI NATURA® Furniture Wax work on wood? Unlike wood oil, which penetrates the wood and protects it from within, furniture wax works close to the surface and changes the natural color tone less. The grain and structure remain visible, while polishing gives the surface a subtle sheen. Regular rewaxing supports the development of an even, distinctive patina. How is OLI NATURA® Furniture Wax applied? Apply the wax to clean, dry wood. If the consistency is too firm, the closed container can be gently warmed on a lukewarm radiator. Use a soft cotton cloth to spread it sparingly, thinly, and evenly in circular motions. Leave to dry until the surface is touch-dry. Then polish with a fresh cotton cloth or white polishing pad. The more intensively it is polished, the silkier the sheen. For raw or highly absorbent wood, a second thin coat may be advisable after drying. Tip: A discarded, clean, lint-free cotton jersey shirt is also ideal for polishing. What makes the formulation of OLI NATURA® Furniture Wax special? Purified beeswax nourishes the wooden surface, while hard carnauba wax gives the fine wax film strength. The formulation contains no added colorants or fragrances and is free from terpenes—including terpene-containing citrus oils such as orange peel oil—silicones, and VOCs. Cloths soaked with the wood wax are not prone to spontaneous combustion.

Mix the product with warm water and apply evenly in a slightly damp layer using a wrung-out cotton cloth or sponge. For floors, a slightly damp mop is recommended. Allow the wooden surface to dry thoroughly. After complete drying, carry out intermediate sanding if necessary, remove dust, and then treat with an OLI-NATURA oil of your choice. This product is NOT suitable for regular, daily cleaning. When using the OLI-NATURA Antique reactive stain, the surface should NOT be treated with PreOilCleaner beforehand.
