Preparation: The bare wood must be clean, smooth, dry and free from wax, dust and contaminants. Remove wax by scrubbing with White Spirit or Rustin's Surface Cleaner and a scouring pad, then wipe away whilst still wet with clean rags. Existing paint and varnishes should be removed with Rustin's Strypit Paint and Varnish Stripper. Bare wood may be dyed before coating with Rustin's Wood Dye. Do not apply Knotting.
Application: Apply liberally with a clean rag or brush and wipe off the surplus oil after a few minutes. On exterior wood, the first coat should be applied liberally with a brush and allowed to dry without wiping. Nibs may be removed from the final coat by applying the oil with a scouring pad, rubbing in the direction of the grain, then wiping away the surplus with clean rags or paper kitchen towels.

Important Instructions for Exterior Wood: Exterior wood will require re-oiling at least annually; horizontal surfaces and very exposed locations may require more frequent attention. Oak and softwoods are prone to weather staining caused by moisture activating mould spores present naturally in the wood.
