Respect the curing period as note:

Oil Plus & 2C Part A	21 days

Prior to curing the finish can be dry mopped or vacuumed.

Once cured use one of the following cleaning products:

1. Surface Care Spray: ready to use, non-residue cleaner.
2. Natural Soap: concentrated version of Surface Care Spray.

The cleaning product that's right for your floor:

• maintenance of the natural oil finish: Surface Care Spray and/or Natural Soap.

Restoration & Rejuvenation

Restoration or Rejuvenation is a simple process that can be carried out anytime. Most residences will do a restoration between 3–6 years. Most commercial applications will do a restoration between 1-3 years. The time frame varies greatly based on abrasion and wear.

The products for this process:

1. Refresh: used to restore the texture of the finish.
2. Universal Maintenance Oil: Protects and refreshes the color of oiled wooden surfaces and adds a soft satin luster to the floor surface.

Spot Repairs

Monocoat Natural Oil finish bonding technology allows local touch up of damaged areas or scratches

1. Sand the repair area as needed to remove damage and expose raw wood.
2. Dampen the area with water. Allow to completely dry.
3. Apply with a cotton cloth, the same color oil that was used originally to coat the floor.
4. Let it react for 10 minutes. Wipe the excess oil off with a cloth, dampened with Monocoat Oil.

For repairing minor scratches, follow the above instructions but skip sanding.
