THE STAGES OF REFRESHING YOUR DOOR

Correct preparation of wood is crucial for an optimal protective finish. At least half of the success of colouring and protecting your wood is determined by prior preparation.

After preparation, you can start colouring and protecting wood with Rubio Monocoat's revolutionary Oil Plus 2C.

Preparing, colouring and protecting wood is one thing, but maintaining it is equally as important. You should look to regularly clean your timber surfaces within the advice for
individual applications.
PREPARATION
Correct preparation of wood is crucial for an optimal protective finish. Follow the three steps below to sand, clean and prepare your wood for oiling.

Step One:
Sand the area to a 120P grit. Start with 40P grit sandpaper, then work your way through 60P, 80P, then 120P.

Step Two:
After sanding, pour Wood Prep onto a lint free cloth and wipe the surface. With veneered doors, it's important that the timber is not soaked, so the cloth should only be damp.

Step Three:
Ensure you have wiped the entirety of the surface and leave to dry. This should take approx. no longer than one hour.
PROTECTION
After proper preparation, you can start colouring and protecting wood. With our wood treatment oil, you can colour, enhance and protect the natural beauty of the wood. You can choose your favourite from our wide colour range to create a unique look. Colouring and protecting wood has never been so easy: apply one layer and you're done. Protect your surfaces with these simple steps.

Step Four:
Firstly, give your can a good shake.

Step Five:
Mix 3 parts oil (Part A) to 1 part accelerator (Part B) and stir.

Step Six:
Apply to beige scrubby pad and work around the surface of the door.

Step Seven:
Leave the oil for a few minutes, then wipe off the excess with your cloth until it's dry.
Your surface will be fully cured within 5 days, ready for your aftercare regime to begin.
AFTERCARE
Protection is only the start of your journey with your wooden project, aftercare is vital if you want to prolong the life of your wood.
