Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free from any previous finishes.
- Application: Apply the oil thinly and evenly using a clean cloth or brush. Avoid excessive application to prevent pooling.
- Drying Time: Allow each coat to dry completely. Drying time varies depending on environmental conditions but is typically a few hours.
- Multiple Coats: Apply additional coats as needed for enhanced protection and appearance.
Compatibility
Rustins Worktop Oil is compatible with all solid wood worktops. It is particularly effective on oak, beech, teak, and mahogany. Not recommended for use on surfaces already treated with other finishes unless thoroughly sanded.
Care
Regular cleaning with a damp cloth is sufficient for maintenance. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can damage the finish. For more intensive cleaning, use a mild detergent diluted in water. Reapply oil as needed to maintain the wood's protection and appearance.
