Liberon Finishing Oil 500ml

Product Information

We recommend using either a raw linseed oil or teak oil for rosewood. This type of oil can enhance the strong colours of rosewood surfaces and furniture. Linseed oil can generallybe applied over stains depending on the type of wood stain used. Only water or non-grain-raising stains should be used, as solvent-based stains may interfere with the penetration of the oil. We recommend Rubio Monocoat Precolor as a water-based stain for interior wood, and Rubio Monocoat Sunprimer as a water-based stain for exterior wood.

Wood oils can be applied both directly to bare wood and timber, as well as over the top of wood stains. It is a decorative wood finish that also has protective qualities. With a pleasantly contrasting sheen over the wood grain, it brings out the natural character of the wood. Although the protective qualities are not as durable as wood varnishes, woodworkers favour its emphasis on character. We recommend using a tung oil for oak surfaces. This type of oil will maintain the oak's colour as well as character. However, if you would like to darken the oak, hardwax oil is more ideal. Another popular oil for oak is danish oil. This type of oil can bring out the rich tones in the wood as well as preventing surface stains.

Before you start with the finishing oil, however, you need to get the colour right and get the figure to look its best. The traditional way to do this is with what gunmakers call ‘red oil’. It is simple to make. All you need are two ingredients: alkanet root in dried form and boiled linseed oil.Different types of wood oils are better suited to specific kinds of wood. The type of oil you use also depends on whether the wood is for interior or exterior use.

When finishing maple, we recommend using either a tung oil or a linseed oil. Both of these oils will bring out the curly, or tiger grain of the wood, finishing maple to the highest of standards. When disposing of cloths and rags make sure that they are soaked in water and fully dried out as they have the potential to spontaneously combust.
