NOURISHING GLOSS-FINISH WAX OIL FOR WOOD FOR INTERIORS AND EXTERIORS
 
COMPOSITION
Vegetable oils and resins, propolis, beeswax, drying agents, vegetable solvent, alcohol.
 
PROFILE
GEMMA wax oil is a conditioning treatment made with wax, vegetable oils and resins that is unique in its kind. It protects and nourishes wooden items treated with oil, while giving an unequalled soft and fuller effect.
IMPORTANT: for regular cleaning, do not use alcohols, or acid, solvent or ammonia based-detergents.
 
INTENDED USE
GEMMA is ideal for protecting, finishing and maintaining furniture, beams, doors, windows and gazebos. It components make wooden surfaces extremely waterproof, facilitating maintenance. Compatible with wax and oil based treatment products and some varnishes (test compatibility).
 
INSTRUCTIONS
Shake well before use. Always use at temperatures above + 15°C. Apply GEMMA to surfaces previously treated with primers. When the surface is clean and dry, apply an even thin coat of GEMMA, using a cotton cloth. Let it dry for 1-3 hours and then, for a more even and fuller effect, even out the surface with a beige pad. Maximum hardness is usually after 2-3 days but may vary according to the temperature. One coat is usually enough. After applying the treatment, protect from water for at least 24 hours. Always run some test application before applying it to the definitive surfaces.
