Description

A finishing system for an extra pale to white appearance from softwood. On hardwood surfaces this will give the whitest look.

Process Summary - Your floor must first be well sanded to grit 120 and filled if you wish. During stage 1 you will first saturate the floor with an application of Wood Lye. This is followed soon after by a damp clean with Wood Cleaner to remove residue of the Lye. The wood needs to dry for at least 6 hours, but preferably overnight. In stage 2 you apply extra white oil to the floor and buff-in the bulk of the protective oil resins as well as more white pigments into the surface. You must remove excess oil with cloths so that the surface is damp not wet with oil. Stage 3 is a repetition of the oiling process. An oiled floor is better for two applications. Subsequent cleaning is made using a solution of Natural Soap, White. The white pigments in the soap will further build the whiteness of the floor at the same time as the soap cleans. Should your floor become very soiled in the future then consider the instructions for Maintaining an Oiled Floor, but otherwise the regular cleaning with soap should be enough to maintain the floor.
