How do we apply a “Finishing Oil’ or a “Hard wax oil”
“Very simply “with heat and pressure”
with “HP”.
We are of
course talking about penetration of the product, or products, into the wood, ‘Most
if not all wax derived products give the best results when a good depth of
penetration is achieved. So simply the best finishes, with these types of
products, are generated by those who are able to get the product to a suitable
depth.
I am amazed
at the number of highly regarded individuals, within our industry who forget
the simple and basic rules when applying natural oil’s or waxes to wooden floors.
So before we
can consider the best or most appropriate method of applying a “Hard wax Oil” to a solid /hardwood floor, we first must consider
the product. Manufacturer’s instructions are not always the best way as they are
often applicable to the DIY market.
a)
The
rules of application, location/product/temperature/humidity,
b)
The
tools we use, (three coats by roller /brush or applicator or by buffer and
burnishing).
c)
The
product (penetration or sit on the surface product)
