3085 CLEAR, SATIN
The subtle, noble shimmer resembles satin and emphasises the wood grain modestly.

Optimally balanced variation. Glossy surfaces become duller over time, matt surfaces become glossier. Semi-matt floors stay the way they are.
CLEAR, MATT
For an almost completely natural look. Light reflections are diffused.

APPLICATION

First coat on the raw, sanded wood approx. 35-45 ml/m².
Mistakes in the wet coating can be corrected up to 30 minutes after the first application.Mist
Drying time approx. 8-10 hours (normal climatic conditions, 23 °C/50 % rel. humidity). Lower temperatures and/or higher humidity can increase drying time. Allow for good ventilation.
If desired, the dried finish can be smoothened with fine grain sandpaper (P400) or with a scouring pad before applying the second coat.
Second coat approx. 35-45 ml/m².
Drying time approx. 8-10 hours; see point 3.
Note: Also available with Solas certification for the shipbuilding industry or as an anti-slip variant (R9/ R11)
SURFACE PREPARATION
Wood surface must be clean, dry and frost-free (moisture content max. 18%).
Osmo Spray-Wax is ready to use. Do not thin. Stir well before use.
Clean old microporous stains thoroughly. Old paints and lacquers must be completely removed. As a general rule, wear a dust mask during sanding works. Fill small cracks, larger joints or holes in wood (with Osmo Wood Filler). Sand wood surfaces carefully. Begin with coarse sandpaper – final sanding work for flooring grit P 120-150, for furniture grit P 220-240.
Before oiling the surface, remove sanding dust with a broom or vacuum cleaner.
The finished surface is influenced by several factors, including the condition of the wood. Therefore, a trial application is always required, especially for unfamiliar surfaces.
NOTE
Clear Spray-Waxes enhance the natural tone of wood (permanent wet effect). For cabinet interiors and drawers, apply max. one coat thinly with a cloth. For a colour treatment, Osmo Oil Stain is ideal – just apply as a base coat. For dark woods and hardwoods rich in extractives (e.g. Wenge, Merbau, Jatoba etc.), we recommend using Osmo Wood Wax Finish Clear Extra Thin or Polyx®-Oil 2K PURE. A trial application is recommended.
Wood surfaces treated with Spray-Wax are easy to maintain. Remove debris with a broom or a vacuum cleaner. For cleaning, add Osmo Wash and Care concentrate to mop water and clean the surface with a damp (not wet!) mop. For refreshing and intensive cleaning, use Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner when necessary. If a higher gloss level is desired, after thoroughly drying apply Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner thinly and polish when dry.
Using general or multi-purpose cleaners will increase the frequency of maintenance and recoating. Allow finish to fully cure before heavy usage.
METHOD OF APPLICATION
Spray Wax is ready to use. Stir well before use
1. Coat: with cup spray gun, RP Technology or Airless/Airmix Application amount is, among other things, dependant on the wood species and sanding grade etc, approx.
35-40 g/m² (3010 Natural 20-25 g/m²). Allow for good ventilation whilst drying.
Inbetween sanding/de-nibbing: min: P220 sanding grit
2. Coat: with cup spray gun, RP Technology or Airless/Airmix Application amount is, among other things, dependant on the wood species and sanding grade etc, approx.
35-40 g/m². Allow for good ventilation whilst drying.
The second coat after applying Spray-Wax 3010 Natural depends on the desired surface results (trial application):
a)Top coat with Spray-Wax 3010 Natural for a slightly white colouration.
b)Top coat with Spray-Wax 3084 Clear for a “like untreated” look.
Osmo Spray-Wax can also be applied with a brush or cloth.
Spray parameters:
Cup spray gun: Spray pressure approx. 2,5 – 3,5 bar, Nozzle approx. 1,3 – 2,0mm.
RP (Reduced Pressure) Technology: Spray pressure approx. 1,6 – 2,0 bar, Nozzle approx. 1,6 – 1,8mm.
Airless/Airmix: Depending on the operation of the operator/machine, the equipment and the condition of the respective system as well as the type and shape of the workpieces to be treated.
The large variety of application tools/possibilities with this system make it unrealistic to create guidelines.
CARE
Regular Cleaning : Dust mopping using the green Dust-Mop from the Osmo Mop Cleaning Kit for Floors. Damp mopping using Osmo Wash and Care or Osmo Spray-Mop.
Occasional Maintenance : Intensive cleaning and refreshing using Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner or Osmo Maintenance Oil.
Recoating : Simply re-apply one coat onto the clean and dry surface when signs of wear become visible.
