Is your oak worktop solid oak or veneered? Is it bare wood or does it have an existing finish? From what you are saying it sounds like it is bare wood or that the original finish has worn off. The surface should be treated two or three times before use. For the final treatment sand in wet oil with 320-400, before wiping off with a lint-free cotton cloth. If your worktop is solid oak, sand the surface of your worktop with a 120 grit sandpaper to remove all surface marks and stains. Take care to remove all traces of sanding dust with a vacuum cleaner or slightly damp, lint-free rag or microfibre cloth. Once fully dry, the worktop can be treated with a worktop oil. A standard, clear worktop oil will darken the wood and enhance its natural colour, character and grain. The appearance will look similar to how the wood looks when slightly dampened. Still working in sections, a very small amount of oil, approx. 1-2 ounces, is poured on the floor and carefully polished into the wood with a WHITE floor pad. Repeat until done. How much oil to apply comes down to the type of oil used. It’s true to say that using a traditional oil such as ‘Danish oil’ would require more coats and on a more regular basis. Hard Wax Oils like those supplied by Manns, Osmo, Holzol and Woca are made from a blend of oils, waxes and resins. The benefit of these is that they offer exceptional durability, are very easy to apply and maintain, require minimal maintenance and in most cases require just 2 thin coats.Ensure normal room temperature of 18-25°C and use only in well ventilated areas. This product is ready to use and does not require thinning. Stir well before use. Modern kitchen worktop oils are highly refined and are blended with solvents to thin and aid penetration into the surface of the wooden work top. In many cases, especially on denser woods, traditional wood oils will not penetrate in to the wood as well unless they are first thinned with turps. Herefter tørres al overskydende olie af med en fnugfri bomuldsklud. Overfladen skal være helt fri for overskydende olie.
