Instructions

Surface Preparation

• Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (moisture content max. 18%).
  Osmo Polyx®-Oil Anti-Slip is ready to use. Do not thin.
  Stir well before use.
  
• Clean old microporous stains thoroughly. Old paints and lacquers must be completely removed. As a general rule, wear a dust mask during sanding works. Fill small cracks, larger joints or holes in wood (with Osmo Wood Filler).
  Sand wood surfaces carefully. Begin with coarse sandpaper – final sanding work for flooring P120-150.
  
• Before oiling the surface, remove sanding dust with a broom or vacuum cleaner.
  The finished surface is influenced by several factors, including the condition of the wood. Therefore, a trial application is always required, especially for unfamiliar surfaces.

Method Of Application

• With Osmo Flat Brush, Floor Brush or Osmo Microfibre Roller, apply thinly along the wood grain and spread well.
  
• Allow to dry for approx. 8-10 hours under good ventilation.
  
• After drying, quickly apply a second coat also thinly.
  
• For renovation works on previously oiled surfaces, one coat applied to the clean and dry surface is usually sufficient.
  
• Note: Osmo Polyx®-Oil Anti-Slip cannot be evened out with a single disc machine.

Care

• Regular Cleaning: Dust mopping using the green Dust-Mop from the Osmo Mop Cleaning Kit for Floors. Damp mopping using Osmo Wash and Care or Osmo Spray-Mop.

   

• Occasional Maintenance: For surfaces treated with the 3088 (R9) finish, apply a thin, lint free cloth coat of Osmo anti-slip Maintenance Oil 3098 ( R9) to the clean and dry surface.

   

• Recoating: Simply re-apply one thin coat onto the clean and dry surface when signs of wear become visible.

Note

• Oils enhance the natural tone of wood (permanent wet effect). Applying the product too generously and insufficient ventilation lead to delays in drying time.

   

• Polyx®-Oil Anti-Slip (3088) is distinguished by its satin smooth, yet non-slip surface. With Polyx®-Oil Anti-Slip (3088), a slip resistance class R9 is achieved. Polyx®-Oil Anti-Slip Extra (3089) is distinguished by its extremely high surface grip. Special granule additives provide the dried coating with a texture that enables a slip resistance class R11.

   

• For dark and extractive-rich hardwoods (e.g. Wenge, Merbau, Jatoba etc.), we recommend using Osmo Wood Wax Finish Clear Extra Thin or Osmo Polyx®-Oil 2K PURE ( these are not classed as anti-slip) . A trial application is recommended. Wood surfaces treated with Osmo Polyx®-Oil Anti-Slip are easy to maintain. Remove debris with a broom or a vacuum cleaner. To clean, add Osmo Wash and Care concentrate to mop water and clean the surface with a damp (not wet!) mop. To refresh surfaces, use Osmo Maintenance Oil ( R9) when necessary.

   

• Using general or multi-purpose cleaners will increase the frequency of maintenance and recoating. Allow finish to fully cure before heavy usage.

Top Tips

• For exotic hardwood species, use Osmo Wood Wax Finish Extra Thin (not classed as anti-slip) .
• Clear oils can darken the appearance of the wood. Trial application recommended first.
• Recommended application amount is 35ml/m²
• Application of second coat can be carried out as soon as the first coat has dried. Ensure plenty of ventilation for drying.
• A base coat of Osmo Wood Protector is recommended for use in bathrooms or kitchens.
• Using 1 x coat of a coloured Osmo finish (eg: Polyx Tints or Wood Wax Finish) beneath the Ant-Slip product is possible however, only 1 x coat of the Anti-Slip should be applied over the colour. Applying too much product could lead to the wood becoming saturated and a more slippery surface.
• Having 1 x top coat of the Anti-Slip product may not achieve the full R9 or R11 anti-slip properties.
