Finishing a kitchen countertop indoors

The best Osmo finishes for your indoor kitchen countertop

The best way to finish your indoor kitchen countertop is with Osmo TopOil, because most moisture collects around a countertop's sink, making a dense, water-repellent finish more important there than elsewhere on the surface.

    Osmo Beton Olie

    This transparent oil- and wax-based Osmo Concrete Oil is ideal for treating all types of indoor concrete, including artificial stone, screed, natural stone, and unglazed tiles. This Concrete Oil is particularly suitable for wall cladding, kitchen and bathroom floors, as well as tabletops, windowsills, and countertops. Osmo Concrete Oil dries to a semi-matte finish. After treatment, the product doesn't form a film on the surface. This means it doesn't form a thick layer, but instead penetrates the surface. Impregnated with Osmo Concrete Oil, the surface becomes water- and dirt-repellent and stain-resistant. After treatment, dust from concrete floors and other surfaces is significantly reduced. Treating concrete with Osmo Concrete Oil provides lasting protection for countertops, kitchen countertops, sinks, washbasins, and kitchen furniture, among other things. Do you want to treat concrete, terracotta, or stone outdoors? Then use Osmo Stone and Terracotta Oil.

Oil for a wooden kitchen countertop

Finish a wooden kitchen countertop with Osmo TopOil. TopOil is made for kitchens, worktops and tables, protects against water, grease and stains and is food-safe once dry. So you can prepare and serve food on it without worry.

How to apply TopOil to a kitchen countertop

Sand the countertop clean and remove all dust. Then apply two thin coats of TopOil with a brush or roller, or buff in three to four coats with a pad or lint-free cloth. Thin coats dry through better than one thick coat. If the countertop has been treated before, do a test first and apply no more than one coat when renovating.

Around the sink and the hob

Most water collects around the sink. So also treat the cut edges of the openings for the sink and hob, and the underside of the countertop. End grain and untreated edges absorb moisture fastest and can swell. Do not leave puddles of water standing, but wipe them away after washing up.

Colour and sheen

Choose 3028 satin matt or 3058 matt for a clear finish. On dark and tropical wood species, 3058 can leave a greyish haze; 3028 is often better there. 3068 Natural keeps light wood light, for an untreated look on your kitchen countertop.

Maintaining the kitchen countertop

Clean the countertop daily with the Spray-Cleaner. For periodic maintenance there is the Tafel & Keuken onderhoudsset. Put hot pans on a trivet and cut on a board, not directly on the countertop. If you use the countertop as a work surface, also see worktop.
