Master Cabinetmaker's Wood Oil is for the maintenance of untreated or oiled furniture made from hardwoods such as beech, ash, oak, teak, walnut, mahogany, and more. This turpentine-free oil is based on the finest and cleanest oils, is water resistant, and protects the wood from desiccation. Before beginning the wood oil treatment, wipe down the surface of your piece with a damp cloth, being sure to go in the direction of the grain. Apply the oil evenly in a thin layer with a soft sponge or lint-free cloth, always working in the direction of the grain. When treating tabletops, remember to treat both sides. For highly absorbent wood, repeat the treatment after two hours. This oil is based on the finest and cleanest oil, and might need extra time to dry compared to other oils. Read the label thoroughly before using this product.
