Finishing a floor indoors

The best Osmo finishes for your indoor floor

The best way to finish your indoor floor is with Osmo Hardwax-Olie, because a floor is most likely to scratch along walking routes, and that's exactly where an oil finish can be touched up locally without sanding the entire floor.

  • Osmo Blanke Was

    Osmo Blanke Was

    Osmo Clear Wax is the product for treating hardwood and tropical woods. These are generally darker woods, which are greasier than other types of wood. Examples of these woods include Meranti, Wenge, and Merbau. In the "Documents" section, you will find the different wood types and the recommended finish for your type. Hardwoods (tropical woods) often have the tendency to absorb products like Osmo Hardwax-Oil with greater difficulty. Therefore, Osmo developed Clear Wax, which is suitable for most hardwoods. Osmo Clear Wax is an oil- and wax-based product, but with a minimal wax content. This is beneficial for hardwoods, as they are naturally somewhat greasier. The small wax content makes it easier for hardwoods to absorb the Clear Wax. Due to its excellent water-repellent properties, it is also very suitable for treating wood in damp areas, such as kitchens, bathrooms, and swimming pools. After treatment, the hardwood oil protects against wear, dirt, and moisture and can be reapplied locally. Important: Always test the wood surface first to ensure the floor absorbs the product well and to determine the desired result. One liter is sufficient for approximately 24 m² with one coat; this depends greatly on the wood type.

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.

Treating concrete with Osmo Concrete Oil provides lasting protection for countertops, kitchen countertops, sinks, washbasins, and kitchen furniture, among other things.

    Osmo Hardwax-Olie Rapid

    Osmo Hardwax-Oil Rapid 3232 semi-matt and 3262 matt create a colorless protection for most wooden floors. Check under "Documents" to see if your wood type is also suitable for treatment with Hardwax-Oil Rapid. This finish dries faster than Hardwax-Oil Original Colorless. Rapid is an oil- and wax-based product, which provides a protective surface after treatment. The product uses a two-layer system: the first layer is fully absorbed into the wood, while the second layer hardens in the upper pores of the wood. The surface appearance is very natural, as the product emphasizes the color of the wood. By wetting the untreated wood, you can get an impression of the appearance after treatment with Osmo Hardwax-Oil Rapid 3232 and 3262; a permanent wet look is created after treatment. This applies when using only Hardwax-Oil Rapid. Applying a color first and then a coat of Rapid to the wood won't create a wet-look effect. Thanks to Rapid's fast-drying properties, you can create a fully finished surface within 4-6 hours.

Oil for a wooden floor

Finish an indoor wooden floor with Osmo Hardwax-Olie Original. It combines natural oils and waxes, penetrates the wood and makes the surface hard-wearing, water-repellent and dirt-repellent. If scratches appear along the walkways, you can touch them up locally without sanding the whole floor.

Two thin coats

Apply Hardwax-Olie Original in two thin coats. The first coat penetrates the wood, the second hardens on the surface. Choose the sheen that suits your floor: 3032 satin matt, 3065 semi-matt or 3062 matt. On dark and tropical wood species, 3062 can leave a white haze. In a hurry? Then choose the faster-drying Hardwax-Olie Rapid.

Keeping it light or adding colour

Keep a light oak floor light with Hardwax-Olie Effect Natural 3041, finished with Hardwax-Olie Original. For colour and protection in one, choose Hardwax-Olie Farbig with a clear top coat. For extra grip, for example in a hallway, there is Hardwax-Olie Anti-Slip. For oak, also see oak indoors.

Underfloor heating

An oiled floor works well with underfloor heating. Do turn the heating down while applying and drying, and ventilate the room well. Read more in treating a wooden floor with underfloor heating.

Maintaining an oiled floor

Mop the floor with Wisch-Fix added to the mopping water. It cleans and leaves a thin layer of wax behind. Walkways that turn dull can be refreshed with the Vloeibare Onderhoudswas. Preferably avoid aggressive all-purpose cleaners, as they dry out the finish. If your floor continues onto the stairs, make sure the finishes match.
