Previously oiled wood can be partially sealed, especially if a slight gloss if evident that prevents any fresh application penetrating. Prepare the wood using fine stainless steel wool rubbing in the direction of the grain and remove all dust
Apply 2- 3 thin coats leaving 6-10 hours between each coat and avoiding water contact. For exterior wood, a minimum of 4 applications is recommended and will require regular re-oiling. Thoroughly treat end grain. Leave a minimum of 1- 2 days after the final coat before using treated item
When used outside we recommend a prior application of wood preservative treatment that must be allowed to dry before applying Danish Oil.
