CARING FOR AND RE-OILING WOODEN GARDEN FURNITURE
Sun, rain and use leave their mark on wooden garden furniture over time. The color and grain fade, and the surface may feel dry and rough.
OLI NATURA® Care Set No. 5 contains everything you need to refresh and re-oil oiled garden furniture - compactly assembled and coordinated with one another.
What is included in the OLI NATURA® Care Set No. 5?
250 ml OLI NATURA® Yacht & Teak Oil in Teak - for refreshing the warm wood tone and for regular care.
-
2-in-1 sanding sponge - for smoothing rough areas and raised wood fibers.
-
Brush - for applying a thin, even coat of oil.
-
Polishing pad - for working in and polishing the oil.
-
Oil-absorbent cloth - for safely removing excess oil.
Which garden furniture is the Care Set suitable for?
For garden tables, garden chairs, wooden benches, garden loungers and other outdoor furniture made of hardwood, exotic wood and suitable outdoor woods such as teak, bangkirai, eucalyptus or black locust.
Ideal for refreshing previously oiled wood - usually without completely sanding it down.
How easy is it to use?
Clean the wood and allow it to dry completely. Smooth rough areas with the sanding sponge if necessary. Apply the oil thinly, allow it to penetrate for about 15 minutes and remove all excess oil. Then polish with the polishing pad.
Everything you need for easy maintenance - from smoothing to the finished oil application.
PREPARATION
Clean the garden furniture thoroughly and allow it to dry completely. If necessary, remove heavier soiling with OLI NATURA® Exterior Cleaner . Smooth rough or raised wood fibers with the sanding sponge in the direction of the grain and remove sanding dust.
Tip: Test the Teak color in an inconspicuous area beforehand. The type of wood, natural color, sanding, and absorbency affect the result.
HOW TO OIL GARDEN FURNITURE CORRECTLY
Work in dry weather at 15–25 °C. Do not apply oil in damp weather, direct sunlight, or extreme heat.
- Stir or shake the oil well.
- Apply thinly and evenly in the direction of the grain.
- Allow to penetrate for about 15 minutes.
- Remove excess oil completely and polish dry. No perceptible oil film should remain – too much oil can prolong drying and cause stickiness.
- Polish again with the white polishing paduntil the surface appears even and dry to the touch.
Very dry or highly absorbent wood can be oiled a second time with a thin coat after drying overnight. For refreshing, one coat is usually sufficient.
COVERAGE
For initial treatment, 250 ml covers approximately 3–6 m² per coat, depending on the type of wood and its absorbency.
For maintenance , one thin coat is usually sufficient. Well-maintained wood absorbs less oil; dry or more weathered wood absorbs more.
DRYING
After approximately 1–2 hours, dust-dryand fully cured after approximately 5–8 days. During this time, protect from rain and moisture, do not clean with water, and handle gently.
TOOL CLEANING
Clean brushes and tools immediately after use with OLI NATURA® brush cleaner or a suitable oil thinner.
