My solution was that not enough hardwax oil had been used. So I was recommended by Osmo to apply a third and fourth coat. And it looks beautiful now

This is the first forum I have come across where people pimp out their services. From Wood You Like selling her miracle wax cleaner to Mister Sander selling a friends sanding service I came on this forum for help from fellow colleagues not the yellow pages

From reading the osmo product sheet : Both cleans and regenerates the wood, as well as providing necessary waxes without building a film layer So this product feeds the surface as well I am reluctant to buy something which is a miracle cure so can you help me understand what this...

I am still confused as to how the product you have identified is different from this product http://www.osmouk.com/previewpage.cfm?bookid=book001&chapter=1&page=141 Can you link to a product data sheet because it seems to me they are identical and we have used this product already

Can you suggest where to buy this from in the shops? Leyland SDM / Bandq etc? We really need it for tomorrow

we did that already - we used osmo wax cleaner liquid and not much of a difference. At the moment the wood looks very dry and patchy I do not think I used enough of the oil because I managed to do about 40 35 square metres in two coats and still had about 10% of the 2.5 litre product...

We installed reclaimed parquet floor and spent about £500 sanding this down. It was teak and oak finger parquet We applied osmo hardwax oil and the result is that it looks patchy and bloomy. We applied two coats of oil about four weeks ago and have left it to cure. When we damp it with a...

We lost power to our house for a few days and the ADT alarm battery was drained Now it says call engineer and prompts for a pin - Is there any way I can get that pin without an engineer coming to the house I have called ADT who insist that I need to pay to get it reset which I think is...

We have a balcony which we use in the summer. It has a felt roof and has leaked a bit in the past so we applied a black bitumen liquid which has helped the leak We want to install decking on the balcony but are concerned of rain run off and what would happen if the leak started again - We...

We have a large attached garage and it has been used for storage - The walls are solid brick and the floor is concrete. It was built about 1970. We want to make this into a utility room but do not know what to do with the concrete floor. At the moment there is no damp on the floor and it is...

Cheers in the end we decided to go with satin white And it looks fine - Would have preferred wood stain but I dont think we would have got color to match

Hi I have two questions about this product which we bought We first applied polyx oil on top of finger parquet - We applied two very thin layers with a roller. That was a month ago. It looks patchy and there is white patches on floor which makes it very unsightly. I guess this is what...

Hi We decided to sand with belt sander and trio sander reclaimed parquet flooring. In one room it appears that half the room was in teak and the other in oak. After sanding really carefully and applying two very thin layers of osmo there are some patchy areas and it does not look...

Hi all I bought some scotias from wickes yesterday - We have white skirting boards and oak parquet floor stained with hardwax oil http://www.wickes.co.uk/flooring-scotia-pine-24m/invt/158204/ I just do not know whether to apply knotting solution, undercoat and then gloss finish so...

I am trying to understand the difference between these two products and I honestly cant find any apart from the fact that they are different colors!!!!! I have some damp in my kitchen that I want to seal and patch and then paint over Which one is preferable...

Thanks - That's somewhat reassuring Would the zinnsser water tite on top of the existing paint be any use? Can I use damp seal from wickes on top of the paint?

we keep the kitchen door open at all times but do not open the windows of the kitchen and do not always run the extractor fan in the kitchen when cooking. If there was condensation would that not escape from the open door and into the other parts of the house?

We had quite a few cold radiators in the house and I bought two bottles of the sentinel x400 and poured in straight into the small box in the loft. That was in November and we have not got round to flushing the system out because of the bad weather Incidentally we did not see ANY...
