Osmo Wood Wax Transparent Finishes provides all round protection for the interior whilst retaining the appearance of the wood grain. Durable, hardwearing and very resistant to water and dirt it is even suitable for children's toys.
Osmo Wood Wax Finish Transparent (please see our other Wood Wax listing for the Intensive version) combines all the advantages of oils and waxes in one unique product. It is resistant to water and dirt, wipe proof and stain resistant. As with most Osmo products it is easy to apply with no sanding required between coats and the final dry finish is safe for humans, plants and animals.
The transparent range of wood Wax is designed to allow the wood's natural grain and character to remain visible, if you wish the grain to be hidden please see the intensive version. For high wear areas such as floors a second coat of Polyx® oil Original is required. Otherwise for furniture and joinery a second coat can be applied for a more intensive colour tone.

How Long can it be kept:
An unopened tin can last up to 5 years and longer if the can is kept dry, closed and away from direct sources of heat. If thickened by frost store at room temperature for 24-36 hours before use.
Surface Preparation:
Wood surfaces must be clean, dry and frost free with a maximum moisture content of 18%. Any old non porous paints and lacquers must be completely removed before application. Generally surfaces should not be sanded any finer than a 150 grit as this will effect absorption. All orders will be sent out with a detailed product information sheet.

1 litre of Osmo Wood Wax covers approximately 24m² with one coat. Please note this is only a guide as coverage depends significantly on the character and finish of the wood. Figures quoted are for smooth and planed timbers.

Cleaning and Maintenance:
Surfaces that have been treated with Osmo Wood Wax Finish Transparent should be cleaned when required with Osmo Spray Cleaner (8026) or for larger areas damp mopped with Osmo Wash and Care (8016). These products are suitablke for regular maintenance, dust, dirt, scuffs and light marks. Aggressive floor cleaning products, washing up liquid and steam cleaners should not be used to clean surfaces treated with Osmo Wood Wax Finish or any other Osmo treated surface as they will strip off the coating and significantly shorten its life.
For more stubborn marks or when the surface is starting to look tired and lacklustre an application of Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner is recommended, please see the product details for more information on application and use.
Please Take Note:
Applying the product too generously or without sufficient ventilation will delay drying.
The final look is always influenced by the wood's characteristics so a trial application should always be carried out first.
Always choose colour tones that match or are darker than the natural tone of the wood.
Oils enhance the natural tone of timber and give a similar appearance to wood when wet.
For dark and oil rich exotic timbers such as Mahogany, Ipe, Balau etc we recommend using Osmo Wood Wax Extra Thin (see separate listing), a trial application is essential.
For interiors and drawers apply one thin coat with a cloth.
When overcoating white coated flooring use the lightly white pigmented Osmo Polyx Oil 3040 rather than the clear version.
