DIRECTIONS:

  • PREP

    Stir can well, pigment can settle at can's bottom and must be redistributed before use. If using multiple containers, combine into one large container first.

  • WIPE OR BRUSH ON

    Use a clean rag or brush to wipe toning oil onto the wood's surface.
    Work in approx. 12" sections or plank by plank.

  • ALLOW TO SIT

    Allow oil toner to sit for 3-8 minutes. The longer it sits, the stronger the wood effect.

  • BUFF OFF

    Use a 2nd, clean rag to immediately buff oil back off the wood. Remove any oil the wood doesn't absorb.

  • CURE TIME

    Apply up to 3 coats, each will get successively paler.
    Do not touch for 24 hours.
    ​72 hours for full cure time.

  • PROTECT

    Toners do not provide enough protection for water areas in the home. Protect with WeatherWash Varnish or Polyurethane.
