Vinnie's Oil UPO Dark

UPO

Vinnie's oil UPO Dark is the same base as our UPO but leaves the wood with a rustic light dark colour, to make your wood appear its fom another century. UPO is our most populair base oil that is most often used as the first treatment on a wood-clean surface. It consists of several cold-pressed oils with small molecules and naturally penetrating properties, and natural hard waxes controlled for purity and toxins. The oil penetrates below the surface of the wood and causes the wood to swell and harden, while the wax effectively seals pores under the surface. Used with advantage together with our Wax which is the hardest wax on the market and that provides incredibly robust protection also on top of the surface. UPO is a Polymerizing (hardening) oil and should always be used as first treatment for untreated wood.

 1. Grinding: Grind the wood untill a smooth surface. You can sand it upp to 600grit. The finer you sand, the more time it needs to soak before you polish. Pop the grains with water. If you sand to 240grit, you should add water to the wood after 180grit for example, wait until its dry, and sand with 240grit after.

2. Mix or shake Vinnie's oil UPO thoroughly and apply so that the entire surface is sticky. Thin layers. Rub it into the wood.

3. Wait for at least 2 hours. Wipe off. And polish.

4. Repeat 2 layers on exposed surfaces. You can add next layer after 12h. To minimize maintainence for exposed surfaces, It’s preferably combined with Vinnie's Vax for extra strong resistance. Always wait at least 3 days before use or apply any wax.
