OSMO: THE TOOL FOR TREATING LARGER WOOD SURFACES IN INDOOR AREAS
A time-saving method for treating interior wood surfaces is possible with Osmo HandXcenter. This tool is an optimal and efficient solution for larger wood surfaces. Osmo HandXcenter is suitable for colouring as well as maintaining and refreshing oiled wood surfaces. It is solely intended for use inside of buildings. Before treating wood with Osmo TopOil, the surface must be cleaned. Afterwards TopOil can be applied directly to the wood surface and distributed with the white pad attached to the hook-andloop fastener disc. Through this work method, TopOil is optimally buffed into the wood surface. Five pads are included with the machine.
