Food-safe Hardwax-Oil for countertops, tables and chopping boards
TopOil
Osmo TopOil High Solid is a food-safe Hardwax-Oil designed for countertops which is extremely tough and hard-wearing. Resistant to common liquid spillages such as wine, beer, cola,
coffee, tea, fruit juice, milk and water according to DIN 68861-1A. These types of liquid spillages will tightly bead on the surface without leaving any marks, simply clean by wiping with a cloth.
- DIN and EN rated for direct contact with food
- Ideal for countertops, tabletops, chopping boards, ect.
- Very durable and hard-wearing – water and chemical resistant
- Saliva-resistant and sweatproof, suitable for children’s toys
- Microporous finish which does not crack, peel or flake
- Can be spot-repaired and renewed without sanding
Based on highly refined renewable raw materials: Soybean, Sunflower and Thistle oils; as well as Carnauba and Candellila waxes. Comparison tests have proved that our products are among the longest lasting natural coating systems ever.
When dry, our finishes unfil both DIN EN 71.3 (suitable for children's toys) and DIN 53160 (resistant to perspiration and saliva), making them safe for humans, animals and plants.
The oils penetrate the pores of the wood, and the hardwaxes form a breathable, protective barrier. Our finishes meet the strict requirements of DIN 68861-1A to be resistant to wine, beer, cola, coffee, tea, fruit juice, milk and water.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT APPLICATION TOOL
We recommend 2-coats with a roller for highest durability and best stain-resistance. Different applicators will provide different results in regards to number of coats needed.
By hand with a lint-free cloth
Apply 3-4 thin coats with a lint-free microfibre cloth. ie. Osmo Easy Pads.
- Shake the can well prior to use to ensure the product is mixed
- Work product into wood using cloth in a circular or figure 8 pattern
- Working with the grain, remove all excess product from surface within 5-10 minutes.
Allow 8-10 hours drying time prior to recoating. Apply subsequent coats following previous steps
NOTE: Depending upon the species of wood (ie. Walnut) it may not be possible to achieve full durability and stain resistance when applying with a cloth. If high durability is required (ie. Countertops and Tabletops) we suggest to apply the coating using the Brush or Roller technique.
Cure Period: Osmo TopOil(s) like all finishes have a cure period. We recommend allowing 2-3 weeks for the surface to fully cure and harden during which time liquid spillages should be wiped up immediately.
WARNING: Cloths saturated with product are a spontaneous combustion hazard and should be left out unfolded until dried, prior to disposal or preferably stored in a proper fireproof container.
By hand with SuperPads/Scotchbrite pads
Apply 3-4 thin coats with non-abrasive white scotchbrite pads
- Shake the can well prior to use to ensure the product is mixed
- Work the product into the wood thinly and evenly in figure 8 or circular motions using a white pad
- Be sure to thinly and evenly coat the surface and leave on the surface for approx. 5 minutes
- With a clean white pad, polish the surface ensuring no swirl marks, rings, or wipe marks
- Ensure all excess product is removed from surface within 5-10 minutes.
Allow approx. 8-10 hours drying time. Allow for good ventilation whilst drying. Apply subsequent coats following the previous steps.
NOTE: Depending upon the species of wood (ie. Walnut) it may not be possible to achieve full durability and stain resistance when applying with a pad. If high durability is required (ie. Countertops and Tabletops) we suggest to apply the coating using the Brush or Roller technique.
Cure Period: Osmo TopOil(s) like all finishes have a cure period. We recommend allowing 2-3 weeks for the surface to fully cure and harden during which time liquid spillages should be wiped up immediately.
By hand with Fleece Applicator pad
Apply 2-3 thin coats with our fleece applicator pads (best way to ensure you avoid over-application).
- Shake the can well prior to use to ensure the product is mixed
- Work the product into the wood thinly and evenly using the fleece applicator pad
- Be sure to thinly and evenly coat the surface
- Since the fleece pad applicator applies the perfect amount of finish, buffing the surface dry is not required.
Allow approx. 8-10 hours drying time. Allow for good ventilation whilst drying. Apply second coat and third coats following previous steps.
Cure Period: Osmo TopOil(s) like all finishes have a cure period. We recommend allowing 2-3 weeks for the surface to fully cure and harden during which time liquid spillages should be wiped up immediately.
With a brush or roller
First Coat: Apply one thin coat with an Osmo Flat Brush or Osmo Microfibre Roller. Our rollers have a 4mm nap.
- Shake the can well prior to use to ensure the product is mixed
- Brush or roll the product thinly and evenly onto the surface.
- Do not remove excess product, this will absorb into the wood surface over the drying period
Allow 8-10 hours drying time prior to proceeding to second coat
Second Coat: Roll or Brush a thin second coat
- Brush or roll the second coat thinly and evenly onto the surface
- Allow 8-10 hours drying time. Allow for good ventilation whilst drying.
Third Coat: Usually a third coat is not required, however highly absorbent or dry timbers may appear to require a third coat.
Please consult OSMO technical support at 1-844-OSMOCAN prior to carrying out a third coat
NOTE: For high quality finishes on items like tabletops, a smoother result can be achieved by lightly sanding the surface after the second coat has fully dried with P320 or P400 grit sandpaper, and then buffing in 1-2 coats with a cloth or white pad.
Cure Period: Osmo TopOil(s) like all finishes have a cure period. We recommend allowing 2-3 weeks for the surface to fully cure and harden during which time liquid spillages should be wiped up immediately.
