FAQs

Can I use Fiddes Hard Wax Oil on exterior wood?

No, this product is specifically formulated for interior natural wood surfaces.

Do I need to sand between coats?

Generally, no sanding is required between coats. If a very light surface imperfection exists, a gentle buff may suffice once dry. Ensure the surface is dust-free before applying the second coat.

How many coats are recommended?

A maximum of two thin coats is generally recommended. However, certain dense or oily woods may only require a single application.

What is the best way to apply the oil?

Apply thinly and evenly using a good quality bristle or synthetic brush, following the direction of the wood grain. Remove any surplus material immediately with a cloth.

How should I clean my tools after use?

Clean brushes and applicators with White Spirit.

What kind of finish does this product provide?

It provides a natural satin/matt finish that is water repellent and tread-fast.

How long does the finish last?

The durability depends on the wear and tear of the surface. For high-traffic areas, re-application may be needed over time. Follow the re-application guidelines when necessary.

Troubleshooting

Product appears sticky or gummy

Too much product was applied or surplus was not removed thoroughly. Ensure application is thin and all excess is wiped off immediately after application. Allow adequate drying time.

Uneven sheen or finish

This can be caused by uneven application or insufficient removal of excess product. Apply thinly and evenly, and always wipe off any surplus. Ensure consistent drying conditions.

Slow drying time

This is likely due to cold, damp, or humid conditions. Ensure the application area is warm and dry, and maintain good ventilation. Longer drying periods are normal in adverse conditions.

Wood appears too dark or blotchy

Test application on a small, hidden area first. Some dense or oily woods may react differently and require only a single, very thin coat, followed by buffing. Ensure the surface is prepared correctly.
