FAXE Softwood Lye

Preparation:
The wood must be sanded down, with a fine grain pad or disc, clean and dry. Remove stubborn dirt using FAXE Intensive Cleaner. When working with lye, always wear suitable gloves and protective goggles.

Application:
• Apply the undiluted lye evenly, with the grain, using a nylon brush or lambswool lye applicator. Smooth out overlaps, as long as the wood is still wet. For a particularly
intensive effect, repeat the process after the first coat has dried.
• When the wood has dried, remove the chalk-like coating and smooth the surface of the wood using a fine sanding pad or disc.

After Care:
The finish should be applied in to suit the planned usage: FAXE Wooden Floor Oil, FAXE Prestige Oil or FAXE Coloroil for particularly high quality wooden floors, FAXE Wooden Floor Soap for robust and natural Scandinavian-style softwood floors and FAXE Tabletop Oil for table tops and worktops. Products with a white pigment are preferable in all cases.
