To care for or renovate your exotic wooden furniture or terraces (Teak, Rosewood, Sandalwood, Boxwood, Merbau, Massaranduba...), Valmour recommends to use Teak Oil AVEL and proceed according to the following steps:
1- Wood preparation : the wood must be clean and dry before application :
Dirty or grey wood: to remove dirt or greyness caused by the passage of time, you can:
- either sand with Fine Glass Paper (120 then 180) and dust,
- or use Bleach Stain Remover LOUIS XIII (recommended for important black smudges) and afterwards rinse with water. Then let dry thoroughly.
Painted or waxed wood : strip with Wood Cabinet Stripper LOUIS XIII.
2- Wood treatment : apply Teck Oil AVEL according to recommandations with the soft Flat Brush. With repeated use, the wood will take on a warm and natural shade.
To eliminate surplus product, use Wax & Dirt Remover Louis XIII, see below.
3- Wood Care : also available as Spray for the usual care for already renovated exotic wood.
