Types of Osmo Polyx®-Oil Finishes

There is only one Osmo Polyx®-Oil hardwax-oil wood finish, made from natural vegetable oils and waxes. That said, you can get a variety of finishes, including:

• Gloss
• Matte finish
• Satin finish

In general, Osmo Polyx-Oil will enhance the natural grain of whatever wood it's applied to, meaning that it will enhance the colour. You can also use oil tints if you’re looking to change the colour of your existing floor.

How much do Osmo Polyx®-Oil finishes cost?

We recommend that you get a professional to apply this finish to your timber flooring. Why? There’s significant work that goes into getting an application right, and if you get it wrong and apply the wrong color, too much product, or an uneven coating, it’ll be very difficult and costly to remedy.

With that in mind, the cost of your Osmo finish will depend on various factors, including the size of your space, the type of timber that you have, and the current condition of your floors. That said, we offer a free consultation to all of our customers, which is a $195 value!

The benefits of osmo finishes

The Osmo Polyx®-Oil is:

• Exceptionally resilient
• Hard-wearing
• Waterproof
• Dirt-proof
• Entirely resistant to liquids that that can harm a wooden floor
• Easy to renovate

In addition, Osmo Polyx®-Oil is micro-porous, meaning that it does not break, scab, peel or blister. So whether you spill wine, beer, coke, coffee, tea, fruit juices, milk, water, or a combination of the above, you’ll have a finish that’s keeping your timber surface safe. This advantage makes it the perfect treatment even in rooms with high humidity.

For our customers that need an extremely tough and hard wearing coating for their timber floors in Perth, we recommend Osmo floor finishes.

What is the installation process?

It’s important to apply Osmo finishes correctly to ensure a lasting finish. Installation steps include:

Floor preparation

First, your floors must be sanded back to the original wood. They also have to be cleaned of any dirt, dust, and great. Any holes need to be filled to make the floor more level. This sanding and cleaning is a difficult job in itself, and getting it wrong can lead to divots in floors and other significant concerns.

Pre-treat the floor

If you want to colour or stain your wood, you will have to complete this step before you apply your finish. Stains and varnishes will not take on top of Osmo or any other waxes and oils. After all, the purpose is to repel water and spills, so stains won’t work.

Apply hardwax

There are many different ways to apply Osmo Polyx-Oil. You can apply with a cloth, with a brush, with a roller, or by hand using Scotchbrite pads. That said, it’s important to apply the correct amount and make sure that it’s an even application. Otherwise, your floor could wind up feeling sticky.

As Perth's leading floor sanding experts our focus is and always has been on quality of craftsmanship and 100% attention to detail. Contact Allen Brothers Flooring today to discuss your floor coating services needs in Perth.

What warranties do you offer?

How does wood oil differ from wood varnish?

Wood oils can nourish and replenish wod from the inside out, helping to breathe new life into wood that has dried out or gotten grainy. This is a long-term, cost-effective solution for many timber surfaces, and it can also provide lasting protection against future damage.

Varnish, on the other hand, is applied to the top of the wood – and that’s where it stays. It does not nourish the wood in the same way, and varnish needs to be removed if any oils or waxes need to be applied down the line. That said, varnish does provide a high-gloss finish, and it can also be used as a protective coating for many types of wood.

How do you look after finished wood surfaces?

Once your wood is finished, regular care and maintenance will keep it looking great for longer. For one, you can use mats and rugs to prevent damage to highly trafficked areas. You can also:

• Mop up spills as soon as you see them to keep the surface fresh
• Avoid spiky shoes or stilettos when walking on wood
• Avoid all-purpose cleaning products, as these can damage wood oil and strip away the wood’s protection
• Avoid steam cleaning, which can make the wood warm
• Clean with interior wood cleaners

With Osmo products, you can also apply a small amount of the oil directly onto scratches or water marks to repair the areas. This is great, as you don’t have to sand or do anything else to help patch up the damaged spot.
