Care & Cleaning

FOR REGULAR CLEANING OF OILED WOODEN SURFACES Footprints, food stains, adhering dirt - oiled wood has to withstand quite a lot in everyday use. Usually, a dry cloth or clear water is sufficient. Where dirt can no longer be removed this way, OLI NATURA® wood soap comes into play. It cleans and cares for the surface in a single step, removes everyday dirt and also has a replenishing effect. This preserves the natural character of the wood - it can be used undiluted or diluted in a variety of ways. Which wooden surfaces is OLI NATURA® wood soap suitable for? For oiled, waxed, soaped or lye-treated wood indoors - from parquet and floorboards to stairs, furniture and other wooden surfaces that can be wiped with a damp cloth. Suitable for private and commercial use. When does wood need more than OLI NATURA® wood soap? Wood soap handles regular cleaning and maintenance care. For heavy, old, ingrained or deep-seated dirt, basic or intensive cleaning is the better choice - especially before re-oiling. If the surface appears dry, dull or visibly worn, maintenance oil for oiled wood is recommended. Does OLI NATURA® wood soap change the appearance of the wood? Wood soap cleans without leaching the surface or leaving a grey haze. This leaves the wood looking clean, fresh and naturally cared for after cleaning. How easy is OLI NATURA® wood soap to use? For regular cleaning, add 5–10 ml of wood soap per litre of lukewarm water and wipe with a damp cloth - using a cloth or white pad on small areas, and a floor wiper or flat mop on floors. For more stubborn dirt, apply undiluted to the affected area. The pH-neutral formula is gentle on skin and wood. What else makes OLI NATURA® wood soap special? The concentrated formula is highly economical, solvent-free and pleasantly fresh-scented. The bottle is made of 100% recycled plastic and is fully recyclable. A push-and-turn closure ensures child-safe handling.

Wellness for wood: This naturally curing maintenance oil for oiled wood surfaces has many beneficial properties: It refreshes the wood's “faded” colour, gives the surface new depth and radiance, penetrates very quickly, and replenishes the pores with fresh oil. This renews the protective effect and, consequently, the wood's resistance. It is particularly recommended for the initial care and refreshing of parquet and plank floors, stairs, and indoor wooden furniture treated with oxidatively drying impregnating oils. The natural-oil-based maintenance oil is unpigmented. Nevertheless, it enhances the wood's grain and colour. Thanks to its low viscosity, it is easy to apply: For small items of furniture, simply apply a little care product to a lint-free cotton cloth or polishing pad and wipe it over the surface to be treated. To refresh wooden stairs, apply the maintenance oil sparingly with a polishing pad, distribute it, and polish it with a cotton or oil-absorbent cloth. For caring for parquet and plank floors, the maintenance oil can also be applied evenly in a thin coat using a sprayer and, after a short penetration time, polished by hand or with a single-disc machine using a polishing pad. The wood care product contains only the ingredients necessary for its purpose. Its main component is refined linseed oil, supplemented with medical-grade isoparaffin for optimum self-penetration. WHEN TO CARE? The intervals at which the wood surface needs to be refreshed depend on the level of use. Good indications that the surface needs care are when its water resistance decreases, the depth of colour fades, and/or the surface feels dry and dull. The surface should then be re-oiled. The maintenance oil is also available in Care Set No. 1. To test the effect of the oil, we offer a practical sample size.

Wellness for wood: This naturally hardening maintenance wax combines oil and wax in one product. It is particularly recommended for initial care and refreshing parquet and plank floors, stairs and wooden furniture indoors that have been treated with our oxidatively drying hardwax oils.
