The greatest advantage of oil in wood treatment is its ease of maintenance and repair. The key to well-maintained oiled wood is prevention. The longer the intervall between treatments, the longer the process will take. When SECONDO CLEAN and SECONDO MAINTENANCE products are no longer sufficient to keep your oiled wood in good condition, it’s a sign that it’s time to consider applying a new layer of oil.

Good general condition (Reduced liquid resistance) :

1. Clean the wood with SECONDO CLEAN.
2. Apply a coat of LINSEED OIL according to the product instructions.
3. No sanding or stripping required.

Good general condition (Stains or small damaged areas) :

1. Sand the damaged area with 120-grit sandpaper.
2. Apply three coats of LINSEED OIL to the sanded area following the product instructions.

Medium general condition (Slight discolouration, multiple stains, reduced liquid resistance) :

1. Clean the wood with SECONDO PREP.
2. Apply three coats of LINSEED OIL according to the product instructions.
3. No sanding or stripping required.

Poor general condition (Severe discolouration, graying surface, no liquid resistance, many stains or damaged areas) :

1. If cleaning with SECONDO PREP does not remove the stains and graying, repeat the initial procedure for LINSEED OIL.
