Clean all tools and equipment with white spirits while still wet. If allowed to dry, remove with paint stripper. Wipe up any drips or runs immediately with a cloth soaked in white spirits. Dried Deks Olje D1 may be removed with Dilunett. Store and maintain equipment as directed by manufacturer. Regular washing with Net-Trol will help to maintain the appearance of Deks Olje D1. It will gradually lighten over time due to exposure to the sun and UV rays. When the wood has lightened to a light grey colour, it is time for a maintenance application. Clean the surface with Net-Trol and then apply Deks Olje D1 until the wood is saturated and the finish restored, usually 1 or 2 applications will be sufficient. RestrictionsOwatrol offer 2 solutions for varnishing your boat. The first is by using our 2-step system of Deks Olje D1 and Deks Olje D2 and the second is using Linitop Yacht Vernis. D1 & D2 Deks Olje D1 must be kept ‘active’, this is done by the ‘wet on wet’ applications and the continual brushing over of the area, which assists and helps achieve maximum penetration. D1 has high penetration; its place is in the wood and not as a surface coating. Allow 3 days for D1 to set-up and dry, before use or in marine uses before putting the boat in service or continuing with Deks Olje D2. Temperature is of very little importance when applying D1. Wood that has weathered longer than 12 months should be cleaned with NET-TROL®* to remove all loose wood fibres, dirt and other surface contamination. The wooden surface must be clean, dry and free of any previous coatings. If you have to strip the surface leave the wood to dry for 3-4 days before applying this oil.

When the surface can absorb no more, brush the material several times. If it still stands on the surface wipe up all excess with a rag which is slightly damp with Deks Olje #1. If the Deks Olje #1 continues to soak in then apply more.

Application

Apply 6 coats, allowing a minimum of 12 hours between coats. All coats should be applied within 1 month. Do not apply Deks Olje D2 in wet weather or late in the day when dew or fog may be expected. This may dull a newly set film causing it to blush – exposure to sunlight usually removes the discoloration. Regular washing with Net-Trol will help to maintain the appearance of Deks Olje D1. It will gradually lighten over time due to exposure to the sun and UV rays. When the wood has lightened to a light grey colour, it is time for a maintenance application. Clean the surface with Net-Trol and then apply Deks Olje D1 until the wood is saturated and the finish restored, usually 1 or 2 applications will be sufficient. Restrictions Surfaces must be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease, grime, mildew and previous coatings. Treat mildew with a 50/50 bleach / water solution. Scrub solution onto surface an allow to stand for 10-15 minutes; rinse thoroughly. After stripping and cleaning, allow wood to dry 2-3 good drying days or until it has reached a moisture content of 18% or less before applying finish. Can only be applied to bare wood surfaces on a weathered wood surface that was previously finished with Deks OLJE D1. All other finishes must be completely and thoroughly removed. If necessary sand surface after cleaning and/or stirpping. The secret of Deks Olje’s success lies in its saturation of the wood to bring about an even ‘matt sheen’ ?nish when dry. Start by applying Deks Olje D1 to an area that can be treated in about 15 minutes. As soon as the 1st application has penetrated (normally 15-30 minutes), apply a 2nd application. Then continue applying D1 ‘wet on wet’ until a uniform, overall saturation of the wood is achieved. The number of applications needed depends on the wood.

The combination of using D1 and D2 is a very popular one and we can see why! Take a look at some previous posts of customers using this system on the projects: Deks Olje D1 has been optimised for dense, oily and difficult to impregnate woods and is suitable for use on both horizontal and vertical surfaces.

Technical Data

Deks Olje D1 is suitable for use on hardwood and softwood and has been specially developed for dense, oily and difficult to impregnate woods. It can be used on horizontal and vertical surfaces and provides protection against humidity and its effects as well as against damage from UV rays. Surfaces must first be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease, grime, mildew and previous coatings. Treat any mildew with a 50/50 bleach/water solution. Scrub the solution on to the surface and allow it to stand for 10-15 minutes. Then rinse thoroughly. Continue applying DEKS OLJE® D.1 “wet on wet” until a uniform, overall saturation of the wood is achieved. The number of applications needed depends on the wood. The 2-part Polyurethane varnish system consists of 2 products that have to be mixed together. This type of varnish is extremely tough and so also offers very good protection from moisture and UV damage and so potentially a good solution to protect areas that are prone to damage.
