Consumption is 100-150 ml per m²; from a 0.75 liter bottle we get around 10 m², and with 2.5 liters you can cover about 25 to 30 m² depending on the type of wood (pine etc. consumes slightly more).

Drying time,

Approximately 24 hours (under normal conditions, 23°C/50% RH). Ventilate well during drying. Lower temperatures and/or higher humidity may extend drying times.

1L is approximately sufficient for 5 – 6 m2 in one coat.

Osmo Wood Impregnation WR 4001 contains solvents, so ensure that you always wear protective equipment during handling, such as a mask, gloves, etc. Technical data sheets and/or MSDS are available upon request.

Tips,

WR 4001 is not a wood finish and is only a base coat. A finishing product from the Osmo range is required within three months.
If possible, apply to all sides of the wood for the best protection. Wipe off the excess from the edges with a dry cloth before letting it dry.
Some applications may cause wood fibers to lift; if necessary, lightly sand to smooth the surface. Use safely. Always read the label and product information before use.

The wood surface must be clean, dry, and frost-free (moisture content max. 20%).
Osmo WR 4001 is ready for use; please do not dilute. Stir well before use. Thoroughly clean old microporous stains. Old paints and varnishes must be completely removed. In general, wear a dust mask during sanding work. Reclose the packaging after use. This product must not be released into the aquatic environment, soil, or sewage system.
Protect the environment (e.g. soil, plants, aquatic environment) against splashes of Osmo WR Base Coat 4001.
Do not apply in damp conditions or when rain is imminent.
