Wood care oil
Kreidezeit Care Oil is a natural, solvent-free and water-free maintenance oil designed for the care of exterior wooden surfaces previously finished with oil paints or tinted wood glazes. It restores the original colour depth and protective properties of weathered surfaces that have become dull and faded, helping to extend the lifespan of existing coatings.
Care Oil is particularly suitable for surfaces treated with Kreidezeit Stand Oil Paint or tinted Wood Lazure. Regular maintenance helps preserve the appearance and weather resistance of wooden surfaces while reducing the need for complete repainting.
Made from natural oils, the product contains no water or solvents and creates a thin, silky-glossy, water-repellent protective finish.

Care Oil is designed for the regular maintenance of existing oil paint and wood glaze finishes. Over time, surfaces exposed to weathering may become dull and lose some of their original colour depth and protective properties.
The oil penetrates weathered coatings, restores their colour depth and creates an even, silky-glossy appearance. Timely maintenance helps reduce the need for more extensive renovation and repainting.

- Restores the colour depth of faded oil paint and wood glaze finishes.
- Improves the water- and dirt-repellent properties of existing coatings.
- Weather-resistant.
- Does not crack or become brittle.
- Excellent penetration.
- Easy to apply and maintain.
- Contains no water or solvents.
- Very economical, with low consumption.
- Colourless and transparent.

1. Surface Inspection
Inspect exterior coated wooden surfaces at least twice a year.
Check for wear, dirt, damage and possible signs of fungal growth.
As Kreidezeit oil paints and wood glazes intentionally contain no fungicides, any signs of fungal growth, such as small black spots, should be removed immediately using water and soap.
Apply Care Oil primarily to surfaces that have lost their original sheen and become dull.
2. Surface Preparation
The substrate must be dry, clean, free from dust and grease, chemically neutral and sufficiently absorbent.
- For light dirt, clean the surface using lukewarm water.
- For heavier dirt, use Kreidezeit Olive Care Soap or Corfu Soap.
- Very stubborn dirt may be removed using an abrasive cleaning pad or P100 sandpaper.
- Allow the surface to dry completely before applying the oil.
The minimum application temperature is +10 °C.
3. Material Preparation
Shake the container briefly before use.
The product is supplied ready to use. If necessary, it can be diluted with Kreidezeit Balsamic Turpentine.
4. Application
Apply Care Oil only to dull or weathered areas.
- Moisten a lint-free cloth or solvent-resistant synthetic sponge with Care Oil.
- Rub the oil into the surface in a very thin layer.
- Allow approximately 10 minutes for penetration.
- Wipe the surface with a dry cloth until an even, silky-glossy finish is achieved.
Important: Do not apply additional oil to glossy surfaces that are still in good condition. Excess oil may leave a greasy and sticky coating.
Do not pour the oil directly onto the surface.
5. Drying
At +20 °C and 60% relative humidity, the surface is dry and can be recoated after approximately 24 hours.
Low temperatures and high humidity significantly extend drying time.
Full curing takes approximately four weeks.
During application and drying, the temperature must remain at or above +10 °C for at least 48 hours.
6. Cleaning of Tools
Clean tools immediately after use with Kreidezeit Balsamic Turpentine, followed by Olive Care Soap or Corfu Soap.
Storage
Store in an airtight container, protected from frost.Under suitable storage conditions, the product has a shelf life of at least two years.
Health, Safety and Important Information
Cloths, sponges, sanding dust and other materials soaked with drying oil may spontaneously combust.
Store used cloths and other oil-contaminated materials in water or in securely sealed metal containers. Avoid contact between the oil and porous insulation materials.
The product itself is not self-igniting.
Due to its natural oil content, yellowing may occur on surfaces exposed to little light. A characteristic oil odour may develop during drying but will disappear over time.
Iron particles remaining on the surface may cause discolouration.
The product is not recommended for the interior surfaces of cupboards.
Before treating large areas, carry out a test application to verify compatibility with the existing coating.
