Osmo: how to maintain your floor

Wisch-Fix for general cleaning and Maintenance Oil for refreshing an intact hardwax oil finish.

For suitable oiled and waxed wooden floors. The oil treatment below is intended for a suitable Osmo Polyx hardwax oil finish.

Care task 1

Damp mopping with Wisch-Fix

Use Osmo Wisch-Fix for normal dirt.

  1. Remove sand and dust.
  2. Mix approximately 15 ml with 2 liters of water: one original cap according to the product information.
  3. Wring the mop out well and mop with a slightly damp mop. Allow to dry completely.

Do not use the intensive dilution for every mopping session. Do not mix with other cleaners.

Care task 2

Refreshing an intact finish

Choose Osmo Maintenance Oil in the appropriate colour and sheen level. Test beforehand.

  1. Clean thoroughly according to the Osmo instructions, wipe over with a slightly damp cloth and allow the wood to dry completely.
  2. Shake or stir the oil. Apply a thin layer with the wood grain and work in with a white pad.
  3. Remove all excess. Ventilate well while drying.
  4. Allow approximately 3–5 hours at 23 °C and 50% relative humidity; cold and damp conditions will extend this.

Bare or greyed wood requires restoration. Wash oil-soaked cloths immediately or store them airtight according to the label to prevent spontaneous combustion.
