SAMPLES
125ml sample cans are available to to help confirm your colour choice. Colours displayed on the printed Elements® Colour Card provide an accurate representation of colour within tolerance of batch production. However, the colour appearance may vary depending on surroundings. The finished surface and product coverage is influenced by several factors, including the condition of the wood. Therefore, a trial application is always required, especially for unfamiliar surfaces.
INSTRUCTIONS
SURFACE PREPARATION
-Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (moisture content max. 20%). Osmo Country Shades is ready to use. Do not thin. Stir well before use. -If possible, please apply the first coat to all sides before installation
-Clean old microporous stains thoroughly. Old paints and lacquers must be completely removed. As a general rule, wear a dust mask during sanding works. The finished surface and product coverage is influenced by several factors, including the condition of the wood. Therefore, a trial application is always required, especially for unfamiliar surfaces. -If additional protection against blue stain, rot and insects is desired, pre-treat the wood if possible on all sides with Osmo WR Base Coat.
METHOD OF APPLICATION
With Osmo Flat Brush or Osmo Microfibre Roller, apply thinly and evenly to the clean and dry wood along the wood grain and spread well. Allow to dry for approx. 12 hours under good ventilation. After drying, apply a second coat – also thinly. For renovation works, one coat applied to the clean and dry surface is usually sufficient.
CARE
-Regular Cleaning : Damp cleaning with Osmo Decking Cleaner using Osmo Decking Cleaning Brush. -Recoating : Simply re-apply one coat onto the clean and dry surface when signs of wear become visible.
Occasional Maintenance : If necessary, intensive cleaning and refreshing using Osmo Wood Reviver Power Gel or Osmo Gard Clean.
NOTE
-Country Shades is also available in any colour of your choice. Starting from samples of 0.125 litres per colour tone, mix to any colour from any RAL, NCS and BS colour charts, and many more. -Many wood species contain water-soluble coloured extractives which may leach out naturally when weathered. -Using power washers will severely decrease the coverage of the finish and general or multi-purpose cleaners will increase the frequency of maintenance and recoating.
