Rustins Danish Oil is a blend of oils, resins and driers, formulated to produce an attractive and durable finish primarily on interior bare wood and joinery. It is an easy-to-use wipe-on finish, which brings out the beauty of the timber and gives a natural, open grained and soft lustrous finish.
It is ideal for all woods and is excellent on turned woodwork. The finish is satin and differs from teak oil in that it contains special ingredients to give it a low lustre finish. For a gloss finish, use Rustins Teak Oil.
May be used outside as a primer-sealer under exterior coatings or alone as a high maintenance finish, where it will require additional coats and regular maintenance. Prior application of Rustins Advanced Clear Wood Preserver is recommended for exterior woodwork.
During preparation, the bare wood must be clean, smooth, dry and free from wax, dust and contaminants. Remove wax or surface oil from oily timbers such as Teak and Iroko by scrubbing with white spirit or Rustins Surface Cleaner and a scouring pad, then wipe away whilst still wet with clean rags. Remove existing paint and varnishes with Rustins Strypit Paint and Varnish Stripper. Bare wood may be dyed before coating with Rustin Wood Dye. Do not apply with Knotting.
Apply liberally with a clean rag or brush and wipe off the surplus oil after a few minutes during application. Nibs may be removed from the final coat by applying oil with a scouring pad, rubbing in the direction of the grain, then wiping away the surplus with clean rags or paper kitchen towels.
Three coats should be applied to bare wood. Drying time is 4-6 hours depending on temperature and humidity. Re-coat once the previous coat is dry.
Before use on veneered doors and timber, refer to the furniture manufacturers instructions, as some coating products are not suitable for this application. Rustins Danish Oil conforms to The Articles in Contact with Food Regulations and to the Toys (Safety) Regulations 1995, BS:EN71 Part 3.
Coverage is approximately 14sq.m per litre per coat depending on the absorbency of the wood. Periodic re-oiling is required. Clean surfaces before re-oiling using White Spirit.
Rustins Original Danish Oil is sold in 2.5Litre; 5litre and 25 litre containers.
