Hi, sorry for the confusion there. Usually there is not a need to sand between coats, however some wood species react differently to oil application and you may experience slight lifting or popping of the wood fibres. if this does happen, lightly sanding the surface (hand weight) with a fine P320 - P360 can be carried out. Hope this helps.
Hi, the finishes are quite similar in ingredients albeit different ratios. The Polyx-Oils are slightly more harder wearing than the Top Oils, which makes them great for very high traffic areas such as flooring. The Top Oils may offer a little more water resistance so more suited for surfaces where lots of water will be present such as worktops and bathroom counter tops. Both finishes when dry are safe to humans, animals and plants. We hope this helps.
This How-To video has different advice on application compared to this other one from Osmo - ruclips.net/video/sveDPFjNNbA/видео.html&pp=ygULT3NtbyB0b3BvaWw%3D Just a bit confusing. I finally went for P120 prep of a Oak kitchen top. Brush 1st coat. No sanding between coats. Lint free cloth for 2nd coat.
Hello, to reach the optimum protection it is always it is always best to fill up the grain, usually this will take 2 coats applied with a brush or roller. If using a brush for your first coat and then cloth we would recommend applying 2 cloth coats as this application method is thinner. This method will fill the grain up and offer great resistance and protection. Hope this helps.
Hi, on the website it says there is no need to sand between coats of the Top Oil but the video seems to recommend sanding between coats so.... ?

Thankyou 👍
Dirk waxed that table like KARATEEE! 🤜
Wax on wax off 🙇
I still do not understand the difference with polyx (except for toy safety). Is it more or less resistant than polyx?

Haven’t you heard of a dust extractor
Hand sanding and using a dust extractor 😂. Melt
