We offer a clear satin finish or a raw finish that does not change the colour of the wood. It has been made from natural oils and waxes including sunflower oil, soybean oil and thistle oil.

This is because Oak veneer is a very thin slice of wood that has been glued on. When the Oil is applied, the solvents can seep through the veneer and will soften the glue underneath. This will then lift the veneer overtime and ruin the door. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/priorypolishes.co.uk\/product\/osmo-door-oil\/\"><em><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Osmo Door Oil<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> is different to most other finishes as it has been made with a combination of oils and waxes but is low in solvent content, so this reduces the risk of damaging the veneer. \u00a0It is still best to check with the manufacturer of the door and always apply the oil very thinly. Test a small section first to be on the cautious side, but this oil will work on most veneered doors.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns: 32% auto;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><a href=\"https:\/\/priorypolishes.co.uk\/product\/osmo-polyx-oil-original-clear\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5129 size-woocommerce_single lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear-600x600.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1\" alt=\"Osmo POLYX OIL ORIGINAL Clear\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear-600x600.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 600w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear-300x300.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear-150x150.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 150w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear-1024x1024.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 1024w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear-768x768.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear-640x640.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 640w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear-1164x1164.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 1164w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Osmo-POLYX-OIL-ORIGINAL-Clear.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 1500w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/600;\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><strong>Which osmo oil is most suited for furniture?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can use most of the range for furniture but the most popular is <em><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/priorypolishes.co.uk\/product\/osmo-polyx-oil-original-clear\/\">Polyx Oil Original Clear<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/em> as you can create either a matt or gloss clear wood finish.

The wax can then be used for maintenance in the future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long does Osmo oil last?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This will depend on how much wear and tear the surface gets and if you maintain the finish. With the <em><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/priorypolishes.co.uk\/product\/osmo-polyx-oil-original-clear\/\">Polyx oil<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/em>, it is said the finish will last approximately 3 years without maintenance. Because this finish is easily maintained and can easily be touched up, it can last many more years (if not indefinitely if maintained on a regular basis).<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/priorypolishes.co.uk\/product\/osmo-uv-protection-oil-extra-clear\/\">UV Protection Oil<\/a> <\/span><\/strong><\/em>will last a long time (Many years) if you follow the guidance on the tin. This will usually mean you need to re-coat the timber at least once every year for maintenance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is Osmo oil waterproof?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Osmo oils are not classed as waterproof but they are water resistant. This is because they are designed to create a micro-porous surface, helping the wood to breathe. This helps to stop wood from swelling and shrinkage if maintained correctly. This also helps with easy maintenance and re-application as you can apply on top of the existing oil.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How much Osmo oil do i need?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This will depend on what you are coating, if you are applying onto bare wood and what the timber is. On the tins and on <a href=\"https:\/\/priorypolishes.co.uk\/product-category\/brands\/osmo\/\"><em><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">our listings<\/span><\/strong><\/em>,<\/a> there is some guidance on the amount each product will cover. As a rule, you need to apply at least two coats of oil on bare wood with a brush and then a coat with the easy pad. If you are only applying with an easy pad, 4-5 coats would be recommended.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns: 32% auto;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><a href=\"https:\/\/priorypolishes.co.uk\/product\/osmo-polyx-oil-tints\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5702 size-woocommerce_single lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Polyx-Oil-Tints-White-3040-600x600.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1\" alt=\"Osmo Polyx Oil Tints - White 3040\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Polyx-Oil-Tints-White-3040-600x600.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 600w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Polyx-Oil-Tints-White-3040-300x300.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Polyx-Oil-Tints-White-3040-150x150.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 150w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Polyx-Oil-Tints-White-3040-768x768.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Polyx-Oil-Tints-White-3040-640x640.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 640w, https:\/\/b2318740.smushcdn.com\/2318740\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Polyx-Oil-Tints-White-3040.jpg?lossy=1&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 900w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/600;\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><strong>Can you use Osmo oil on floors?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes the <em><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/priorypolishes.co.uk\/product\/osmo-polyx-oil-original-clear\/\">Polyx oil<\/a> <\/span><\/strong><\/em>is ideal for application on floors.
