An overview of instructions. Please consult the TDS for complete product information.
Application
Furniture, stairs & countertops
- Sand the surface scratch-free, up to 120 or 150 grit.
- Vacuum thoroughly, eliminate remains of dust with Rubio Monocoat Cleaner and wait until the surface is completely dry (check the technical datasheet of Rubio Monocoat Cleaner before use).
- Stir the A component until a homogenous mixture is obtained. Carefully mix the two components (1 to 2 minutes) with a ratio of appr. 3 units A to 1 unit B.
- Spread out a small quantity of Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C using the Rubio Monocoat Applicator Set.
*Spatula method: evenly spread Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C with a stainless spatula in zones which can be finished within 15 minutes (including step 5).
*For ceilings and walls, apply Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C to the surface using a brush and spread using the Rubio Monocoat Applicator Set.
- Allow to react for 3-5 minutes. Wipe away all excess oil with a clean terry cloth. Within 10-15 minutes from initial application, perform a final pass using a clean terry cloth, ensuring all excess is thoroughly removed. The surface should be dry to touch upon completion.
Floors
- Sand the surface scratch-free according to NWFA guidelines, up to 120 grit.
- Vacuum thoroughly then clean remaining dust using Rubio Monocoat Cleaner and wait until the surface is completely dry (check the technical datasheet of Rubio Monocoat Cleaner before use).
- Stir the A component until a homogenous mixture is obtained. Carefully mix the two components (1 to 2 minutes) with a ratio of appr. 3 units A to 1 unit B.
- Apply the oil to the perimeter of the room. Remove excess oil using a clean terry cloth within 10-15 minutes.
- Working in 50-100 ft² (5-10 m²) sections (or areas you can complete within 10-15 minutes), wipe the oil onto the wood and use a white or red buffer pad to equally spread the oil. Continue spreading the oil until the buffer pad no longer forms oil/ colour rings. Complete steps 6 & 7 before starting a new section. *Spatula method: evenly spread Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C with a stainless spatula.
- Allowing a reaction time of at least 3-5 minutes, use a clean white buffer pad to remove all excess oil off the 50-100 ft.² (510 m²) section.
- Thoroughly remove all excess oil within 10-15 minutes of initial application by placing a clean terry cloth under a clean white buffer pad. If needed, remove all excess oil from v-grooves/bevels and holes by hand.
- Continue working in zones you can complete within 10-15 minutes. The surface should be dry to touch upon completion.
Maintenance
Maintenance should be performed using Rubio Monocoat Renew (check the technical datasheet of Rubio Monocoat Cleaner before use).
Repair and renovation
- If the Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C treated surface shows much wear and tear, or needs a colour repair, maintain with Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C in the original colour.
- Use Rubio Monocoat Surface Care Spray to clean the wooden surface. If there are still some stains, try repeating the cleaning process or using Rubio Monocoat Tannin Remover to remove the stain (check the technical datasheet of Rubio Monocoat Tannin Remover before use).
- Abrade the wood surface using a buffer with a maroon pad.
- Vacuum thoroughly then clean remaining dust using Rubio Monocoat Cleaner and wait until the surface is completely dry (check the technical datasheet of Rubio Monocoat Cleaner before use).
- Stir the A component until a homogenous mixture is obtained. Carefully mix the two components (1 to 2 minutes) with a ratio of appr. 3 units A to 1 unit B.

- Continue working in zones you can complete within 10-15 minutes. The surface should be dry to touch upon completion. Note: High temperatures may decrease working time and low temperatures may increase the amount of time needed for a molecular bond to occur.
