Osmo Concrete Oil is suitable for the clear impregnation of nearly all types of concrete (exposed concrete), artificial stone, screed as well as microporous natural stone with a polished, sanded or break surface as well as for unglazed tiles. Especially suited to wall panelling and flooring in the kitchen and bath as well as for tabletops, windowsills and kitchen worktops.

Advantages:

• Based on natural plant oils and waxes
• It does not form a film on the surface, instead it penetrates the surface
• Microporous surface becomes water and dirt repellent as well as stain-resistant
• Dust resulting from screed and concrete surfaces is greatly reduced.

Additional Advice:

For larger areas, remove excess oil with a rubber scraper and polish with a single-disc machine or FloorXcenter (white pad). Important: the liquid oil must be absorbed into the surface. There must not be any oil left on the surface. Leave to dry for 8-10 hours. Ventilate well while drying. Apply the second coat also very thinly. Remove any excess. When renovating already oiled surfaces, normally one coat on a cleaned surface is sufficient.

Ready to use – do not thin! Apply very thinly to the clean surface using Osmo Flat Brush, Finish Application Fleece, Floor Brush or Microfibre Roller and spread evenly. The results vary depending on the surface condition and absorbency, including other factors. Therefore, always carry out a trial application first, especially on unknown substrates! White or very light-coloured stones/surfaces may yellow slightly due to oil content! To prevent possible yellowing or to achieve an individual colour, Concrete Oil can be tinted with approx. 5–10% Osmo Oil Stain or Wood Wax Finish.

Oils intensify the natural colour of the substrate (permanent wet effect). Trial application is absolutely essential! Impregnation may influence the slip resistance of the original surfaces. For a slip-resistant surface, instead of the second coat, an Anti-Slip Polyx®-Oil R9 or R11 can be used. White or very light-coloured stone/surface may yellow slightly as result of the oil treatment! To prevent possible yellowing or for an individual staining, Concrete Oil can be tinted with approx. 5-10 % Oil Stain or Wood Wax Finish. The acid sensitivity of the stone (e.g. marble) remains unaffected. Non-absorbent surfaces, such as glass, glazed tiles or ceramic, cannot be treated (impregnated). Substrates sensitive to solvents (e.g. plastics such as Plexiglas) must be protected. A lack of ventilation leads delays in drying.

A trial is always recommended first to determine suitability.
