Oil & wax wooden floors

Nature-oriented protection

Fine floor wax and oil are the first choice if you want to protect your wooden floors in a natural way and enjoy their many benefits for a lifetime. A treatment with the solvent-free PurSolid hard oil keeps the wood structure visible, the floor remains breathable and retains its ability to absorb and release moisture. An additional layer of hard wax provides long-lasting protection for the wood.

Further materials

  • Single-disc polishing machine, grinding and polishing pads
  • Squeegee, floor rollers, telescopic rod, Japanese spatula
  • Shoe covers
  • Stirring rod, cotton cloth

Step 1

Preparation: Clean the wooden floor well.

Tip: Use shoe covers when working on the surface.

Step 2

The material and the tools. You will also need a single-disc polishing machine. You can borrow one from a specialist dealer.

Step 3

Stir the PurSolid hard oil well.

Step 4

Then pour into the paint tray.

Step 5

The edge areas are prepared with a small roller or brush.

Step 6

Then pick up the oil evenly with a large floor roller and spread it over the floor in individual strips.

Step 7

Leave the oil on for 15 minutes. If there are still dull patches afterwards, oil them again and leave to absorb briefly.

Step 8

The oil on the surface is removed with a squeegee.

Step 9

This can also be done with a small hand squeegee.
The contracted oil is then picked up again and collected in the paint tray.

Step 10

The oil absorbed by the floor can be reused.

Step 11

To polish, place a beige or red pad on the single-disc polishing machine.

Step 12

This works the oil thoroughly into the wood surface.

Tip: For an even surface, remove the excess oil with a white pad.

Step 13

The edge areas are finished with a cotton cloth. The floor must dry for 24 hours before applying the wax.

Tip: If you only want to oil your wooden floor and not treat it with wax, apply another coat of oil after the 24-hour drying time.

Step 14

If you prefer to protect the floor with a layer of wax, apply a layer of PurSolid hard wax after the oil has dried for 24 hours. The viscous wax is applied selectively to various areas of the floor using a Japanese spatula.

Step 15

The wax is then spread over the floor surface with the machine and a white pad and polished.

Then wait 30 minutes.

Step 16

Apply a finer pad and polish a second time.

Done!

Step 17

Safety note!

Due to the risk of spontaneous combustion of drying oils, leave all used cloths and pads spread out in the open to dry or place in water.

Step 18

The floor, finished in a warm wood tone, has a natural look and is well protected from the traces of everyday use.
