Instructions for use

1. Substrate preparation he substrate must be dry (wood with less than 12% humidity), clean, free of dust and grease, and prepared according to the rules of the trade.
   If necessary, clean with BIOFA 0500 thinner.
   Remove old paint.
   Degrease woods with a high tannin content (tropical woods, oak, etc.) with alcohol and allow to dry for at least 24 hours.
   Sand furniture with 240-grit sandpaper and floors with 120-grit sandpaper.
   Substrate temperature must be at least 16°C.
   For terracotta tiles, please refer to the Stone Oil BIOFA 2100 technical data sheet.terra cotta tiles.
   Underfloor heating: heat for 3 days, switch off 24 hours before treatment, restart 72 hours after last treatment (increase 5°C per day, max. temperature 30°C).
2. Application:Stir well before use.
   Apply a thin, even coat using a brush or, preferably, a lint-free cloth.
   After 30-60 minutes, spread or blot up any excess oil that has not penetrated.
   After 60 minutes, buff with a green or beige pad or sand with 120/150 grit when completely dry.
   Caution: excess oil creates a sticky, shiny surface that does not dry thoroughly. Test beforehand.
   Never pour the product onto a surface, as the edges of any stains can no longer be removed by sanding.
   Standing wood absorbs more oil and darkens more; apply very thin coats.
   Depending on the cut of light woods (maple, ash...), there are places where the oil darkens the wood more.
   Sponge off any oil that has not penetrated terracotta tiles.
   Important: during application and drying, make sure that the room is well ventilated.
