Hi, is Osmo UV protection oil (clear matt/satin) any good for protecting pine that is charred, scrubbed (shou sugi ban) and then dyed with vibrant colours?
Hi. We have just had a fence installed this is a ruff sawn timber. We love the thought of keeping the wood natural. We inquired today about the osmosis product and we’re told by a very unhelpful and rude guy. That osmo is not the product we are looking for. Can you advise on a clear uv protection in this range that will be suitable. Great content and love that oak finish.
Hi there, Osmo can be used on rough sawn timber! It will however soak in a lot more product, therefore more than usual will need to be used - We recommend to spread it out as much as possible with a brush. In terms of a clear finish, the UV-Protection oil is ideal for fences!
Hi. Can you tell me how much more product will be required for rough sawn timber? I have just started painting a barn clad in Yorkshire boarding and I have gone though far more than the instructions suggest.
Rough sawn? Ouch, very porous surface. A clear wood preserver would have been more appropriate. Did you know clear coatings outside can be quite high maintenance (potentially every six months)?
