Priming wood in most cases is mandatory for painting on the street. Priming wood in most cases is mandatory for painting on the street. When treated with soil, the risk of cracking, rotting and infection of the surface with a fungus that stains wood is reduced. Etc. When treating with soil, the risk of cracking, rot and infection, as well as wood painting, is removed. fungus.

We advise you to immediately cover the facade with primer oil for wood Art.150 (or with Ultra Nature wood primer Art.877).

Yes, the soil for wood can be used for temporary preservation of wooden structures, facades and other vertical and horizontal surfaces on the street.

The first layer of oil applied to the wood will always be considered a primer.

Yes, that’s right. Oil consumption will decrease by about 10%.

Before applying, the primer for the tree must be mixed.
Apply primer oil Art.150 on wood with a brush, roller, spray gun.

The primer for wood is not used for terrace decking, which will be treated with Oil for terraces Art.236.

DECORATIVE EFFECT: Ultra Nature wood primer Art.877 is completely absorbed into the wood, leaving no film on its surface. Due to this, when applying the finishing coating (LEINOS oil), the color of the surface does not differ from the color of the unpainted surface painted with the same finishing composition.

FOR TIMBER AND LOGS: The moisture content of the wood should be no more than 20%. On the street, the coloring of a tree with a humidity of more than 20% is allowed to be carried out only with Ultra Nature tree primer Art. 877.

In the primer oil Art.150, as in all compositions for outdoor work, there is an additive from UV radiation. These are titanium dioxide nanoparticles. They dissipate solar radiation, but rather weakly.

All compositions of LEINOS are applied to the primer oil Art.150. In particular, Azure oil Art.260

Some of our construction partners use polyurethane sealants in contact with oil. For several years of using such sealants, there were no complaints.

Under the Terrace oil LEINOS Art.236, it is not necessary to prime the wood. This will degrade the absorbency. Terrace oil Art.236 has already been made so that it is well absorbed.

This option is possible. It is possible to apply only primer oil Art.150 on the reverse side.

Priming surfaces indoors is not necessary – there is no snow, rain and an environment favorable for the development of fungus.

If the wood is dry inside, it is enough to cover the Oil with azure for interior work LEINOS Art.261 in 2 layers.

The most resistant to UV radiation are pigment-saturated oils, they are less transparent, but the protection of the tree is higher.

The ends absorb liquids 5 times more intensively, so the consumption will be higher in any case. At the ends it is unclear whether the oil has dried or not, since it is well absorbed and does not remain on the surface.

To change the color of the house slightly, for example, to make it a little darker, you do not need to polish. Apply one or two coats of oil of a new color.

The tree changes its geometric dimensions when humidity changes, expands by gaining water and decreases in dry weather.
Breathing is just about the movement of water vapor.

Natural drying oil is made from linseed oil and holds perfectly on wood.

Oil for terraces Art.236. Created specifically for painting horizontal surfaces on the street. It does not require a primer, as it is liquid enough to soak deep into the wood.

Natural LEINOS oils are devoid of these disadvantages. Cover the tree from all sides, do not forget about the ends.

The recommended paint scheme for exterior work is the same as for facades.
Apply primer oil Art.150 and the first layer of azure Oil for wood Art.260 before installation, and the second layer of oil is already on the wall.

It depends on your physical and moral strength. One of the advantages of LEINOS natural oils is the ease of application. Sanding takes longer than the painting process.

If the walls are not wet, then you can. A wet and even dried section of the wall will differ from a dry one after applying the oil.

We do not recommend applying the oil in the cold.
At subzero temperatures, the oil thickens. The color quality will be lower.

If the first layer dries for a long time, check the moisture content of the tree. In wet wood, oil is absorbed worse, remains on the surface and dries longer.

We recommend covering a fresh log house with primer oil for wood Art.150 (or Ultra Nature primer Art.877), oil-based (linseed oil), there is a fungicide in the composition.

There are three main types of coating aging:
1) Peeling or peeling of the paint film from the wood. LEINOS oils do not peel and do not peel off;

First you need to find out what type of paint the house was painted with. To update the natural LEINOS oil, you only need to apply one layer of oil, the same color.

It’s a matter of taste and design.
Sewing with a board is less labor-intensive, but does not involve shrinkage at home.

The drying time of the oil is approximately 16-24 hours. At a temperature of 20-24 degrees and normal humidity. Low temperature and high humidity increase the drying time.

Larch has an undeniable advantage in mechanical resistance. Dense, impregnated with resin, it holds various blows of fate well: a fallen hammer, hairpins, icy rain, etc. Larch wood is also prone to cracking.

The end cut has a greater absorbency in contrast to the longitudinal one. You can apply finishing grinding with P100 grain. For the ends, we recommend using Azure oil Art. 260 or Weather-resistant paint oil Art. 850.

For facades, we recommend the following painting scheme:
1) To create a laminating coating (the structure of the tree will manifest itself)
1 layer of primer oil Art. 150
2 layer of colored Oil – azure for wood Art. 260 (tinted in any color)
3 layer of colored Oil – azure for wood Art. 260

Azure for facades Art. 110 is supplied already tinted with mineral pigments (the color differs from batch to batch). It has a dark brown color.

For painting windows, priming oil Art. 150 and Azure oil Art. 260 are recommended.

Lignofix can already be applied. For an unaffected tree, Lignofix Stabil Extra is suitable. If there are gray or blue places – Lignofix Top.

The technology for coatings has been disrupted. Azure for LEINOS wood Art. 260 is soft and elastic, so it perfectly withstands the movement of the tree. But it is not designed for floors – it is not designed for walking load.

We polish the terrace board from the front side, remove dust and cover it with Oil for terraces Art. 236 from all sides. This is necessary so that the board does not bend in the future.

When building a house made of natural moisture wood, it is very important to prevent the formation and development of fungus on its surface. After all, getting rid of gray spots without damage to the tree is not an easy task.

Oil for terraces Art. 236 should be absorbed into the wood. If your antiseptic has closed the pores of the tree, then the oil will dry out with a film, without being absorbed into the decking. Accordingly, the oil will hold on as long as the coating is kept under it.

If the log house is fresh, then under the main coating you need to use LEINOS primer oil Art. 150. Thanks to the primer oil, the tree will be protected from the development of fungus during the drying process.
If the log house is dry, then you can do with azure oil for LEINOS Art. 260 wood in three layers

A tree without protection not only turns gray, UV radiation destroys lignin, and rains wash out the resin. The top layer of wood becomes less dense and absorbs water (and oil, too) better. Therefore, we recommend completely removing the old coating before painting.

Oil consumption of primer Art. 150 – 1 l per 14 sq. m.
Consumption of Oil – azure Art. 260 – 1 l per 12 sq. m. in two layers (if applied to primer oil).

Yes, these compounds are compatible. You can apply the first layer of Oil – azure Art. 260, and then the Oil – azure metallic Art.264. And you can do the opposite. The main thing is to like the result.

The fire resistance coefficient of a structure is defined as the time interval during which it will be able to effectively withstand the effects of open fire.
LEINOS oils have a TUV certificate of fire resistance.

Not appropriate. So it’s not worth saving.
Read more: the second layer of Azure Oil Art.260 saturates and evens out the color of the coating. One layer of Azure Oil Art.260 is not enough to create normal protection.

We recommend following the application scheme recommended by the manufacturer of LEINOS oils. For the decking we use Terrace oil Art. 236 + Terrace oil Art. 236, necessarily tinted.

During assembly, it is possible to process the hidden planes of the beam.
Ultra Nature primer Art. 877 is intended to protect raw wood from contamination during storage, construction and drying before painting.
It is easy to apply it, brush or roller.

We wrote how it would be with only one layer of primer composition. After the soil, having painted the facade with two (exactly two) layers of tinted Oil – azure Art. 260, you will receive full protection of the tree from the sun, moisture, all kinds of insects and microorganisms.

1. Ultra Nature wood primer Art. 877 and Oil for facades Ultra Nature Art. 870 are suitable for the facade.
We recommend doing a trial coloring on the primed surface, because the primer composition affects the color saturation. The color saturation is also strongly influenced by surface preparation.

With a new bar, everything is easily calculated:
1. Easy grinding with abrasive grain P80 or P100 – open the pores of the tree.
2. Application of LEINOS Primer oil Art. 150. You need 13 liters for 200 meters.
3. Application of azure oil LEINOS Art. 260 in two layers (with intermediate drying). For 200 meters, you will need 20 liters of azure – for example, in the color 1714 Eiche Mittel (it is similar to the color of oak wood)

The dried tree, covered with an antiseptic composition with protection from water penetration, will be best preserved. Glued beams with minimal protection (water antiseptic) will withstand winter. Wood of natural humidity will have the hardest time.

There are two main questions about grinding: what kind of tool and what kind of abrasive material?
What kind of tool?
Angle grinder with speed control (aka UHM, aka Bulgarian) is the most favorite tool due to high productivity and prevalence. As a rule, disks with petals of a large skin are placed on it

For facades, we recommend the following paint scheme:
1) To create a lapping coating that will exhibit the structure of the tree:
1 layer primer oil Art. 150
2 layer Oil – azure for wood Art. 260 (tinted in any color)
3 layer Oil – azure for wood Art. 260

The old coating must be completely removed. Otherwise, all the work will be in vain. The oil will not be absorbed into the surface and will not form on the film composition.
If the application technology is followed, the oil is well absorbed and penetrates deeply into the pores wood.

In conditions of high humidity, more frequent surface renewal will be required. The oil-soaked surface is updated on average once a year. Terrace Oil Art. 236 due to its properties is suitable only for impregnating wood with oil without a thick surface film.

Terrace oil 236 article is not intended for use without tinting. We do not recommend using the composition without tinting, which may lead to further yellowing, and in cases with thermo wood, the surface may turn gray.

The oil for terraces Art 236 is saturated with linseed oil and therefore white and pastel shades may not turn significantly yellow.
Usually, dark, brown, or colors close to wood are chosen for painting terraces.

The minimum application temperature recommended by the manufacturer for these formulations is +10 degrees. But drying time and polymerization will greatly increase.
It is important, at the time of drying, to protect the surface from moisture ingress.

Cover according to the application technologies recommended by the manufacturer.
Outside, use compositions for the street.

Cracking of the ends occurs due to uneven moisture output from the wood. When drying, the wood narrows, and the outer part of the material dries faster. Due to the narrowing, a high voltage is obtained in the dried part of the wood, it cracks or even more correctly breaks.

Oil for terraces Art. 236
Teak oil Art. 223
They are equally suitable for primary treatment and water-repellent impregnation, as well as for preventive care of any wooden product on the street.

To paint or not to paint is an individual matter. Of course, it is best to “breathe”, i.e. absorb and give off moisture, a tree that is not covered with anything.
The worst thing with this will be a tree covered with a dense synthetic film.

For indoor walls, it will be enough to apply two layers of LEINOS oil.
After the first layer, irregularities in color and saturation will be noticeable. The second layer evens out the color.

Turns yellow. Stronger where direct sunlight falls. But in other places, yellowing will be noticeable in a few years

The walls, and even more so the ceilings in the rooms will serve for a long time, and 30 years is not the limit.

For painting indoors, White LEINOS varnish article No. 820 is used, it does not contain biocides.

Indeed, natural LEINOS oil penetrates deeper into the wood than synthetic compounds. This is its undoubted advantage.
At the same time, the pigment is not absorbed so deeply, it remains on the surface, bound with oil.

The following compositions are suitable for interior walls and ceilings:
Art. 261 Azure oil for wood
Art. 259 Universal solid oil

If the lining is not gray – blackened, but simply has a yellowish tint, then it can easily be given a light color.

Oil – azure art. 260 is created for painting facades, it is elastic and well withstands changes in the geometry of wood, repels water. And like all LEINOS compositions for the street, it contains an additive against the development of microorganisms. That is, it proactively protects against blueness and fungus.

Mesh is good for smooth surfaces, scotch – bright for curved ones. It is more convenient to work with a grid, but it is subjective. Mesh and scotch – bright are sold with ribbons 115mm wide, so the consumption should be taken into account in linear meters.

For painting indoors, two layers of oil are enough, no primer is required. The third layer is allowed if there is a difference in the color of the logs and for rooms with high humidity.

The presence and intensity of the smell depends on many factors. The smell in the jar and after application are felt differently and directly depends on the evaporation area. Natural oils in the composition of our products certainly have their own smell and in the process of drying you feel it in one way or another.

Texturing of wood is the allocation of annual rings, i.e. the manifestation of the structure of the tree. This is done with the help of abrasive or steel brushes.

The wear resistance of the coating for the walls will be lower than that of LEINOS parquet oils.

1. A great advantage is the long working time with oils. This means that excess oil can remain on the surface without drying for up to 1 hour. This is very important for large areas.

For floors, we recommend Solid oil with wax Art. 290, the coating is silky – matte. It is also possible to cover the floors with Universal solid oil art. 259, it is matte.

There are two ways to protect wooden floors.
Traditional: oiling and waxing.

For stairs, you can use the same compositions as for floors.

Floor protection scheme
Layer 1 and 2:
Colored Solid oil with wax (LEINOS Art. 290)

It all depends on the number of scratches.
If there are a couple of scratches, and the floor area is large, then, of course, local repairs.

Stir the oil before use. Always do a trial coloring.
Pre-prepare the surface with an abrasive material with a grain size of P100-P120. The wood must be durable and dust-free.

The main difference between Solid oil with wax Art. 290 from Universal solid oil Art. 259, is that Art. 290 is more wear-resistant to mechanical impact and abrasion, due to the increased wax content in the composition.

Solid oil with wax Art. 290 or Universal solid oil Art. 259, will better protect furniture from abrasion.

We can recommend a simple application scheme recommended by the manufacturer of LEINOS oils.

If it is necessary to make a deep impregnation of wood, then we use Solid oil Art. 240. It is liquid and without wax. Completely absorbed into the wood.

240 Solid oil is absorbed the deepest, without leaving a coating layer on the surface. It can be used as an independent coating, and as the first primer layer for other oils (and for 259, 290 too)

For countertops, we recommend using Art. 280 Oil for countertops.

If you need to protect the countertop, we recommend oil for countertops Art. 280. It contains carnauba wax, which remains on the surface and forms a hard coating.

Wax azure Art 600, a water-based wax emulsion, is suitable for children’s toys. Water compositions are tinted with natural concentrated pigments article 668, which create exclusive colors that are not repeated on other pigments.

We recommend to cover the fonts with Solid LEINOS oil Art.240 in 4-5 layers by impregnation method.

For the steam room, we recommend using Natural wax LEINOS Art. 310, which perfectly protects the wood from contamination, absorption of water and aromatic oils.

Walls and ceilings in rooms with high humidity are recommended to be painted in three layers.

For the protection and decorative coloring of steam rooms, baths and saunas, compositions can be distinguished that perfectly preserve the natural useful properties of wood and at the same time protect it from moisture.

Grinding is a process aimed at the rapid and high–quality elimination of defects from the surface of wood and its preparation for further processing.

Surface preparation before painting is carried out by a vibrating or eccentric, orbital grinding machine using an abrasive of different granularity, depending on the surface quality.

Texturing of wood is a technical process of selecting annual rings, i.e. the manifestation of the structure of the tree.

Cup-shaped brushes are used to texture the walls of the house.

For coloring, you can use a brush with natural or mixed pile.
The brush should be quite dense, and the pile should not fall out during work.

Non-woven non-abrasive pad is used for oil polishing.

No, it’s just an irrational use of oil. LEINOS oils are easily and simply applied with a brush without streaks and smudges.

Tinted oil can be stored for at least 2 years in an unopened package.

No. As practice shows, fire protection closes the pores of wood.

FOR PARQUET AND LINING: The recommended humidity of the painted wood should be no more than 13-15%.
FOR TIMBER AND LOGS: the moisture content of the wood should be no more than 20%.

To do this, pour a little water on the surface

The MDF board can be coated with oil and wax. Wax as an independent coating is used for hardwoods.

With regard to paints, the term “natural” is widely used in the sense of environmental safety (“green” paints).

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are carbon-based chemical compounds present in most paints. VOCs are harmful to the environment and also contribute to global warming.

To process a wooden house , it is necessary:
For outdoor work: Primer oil Art. 150 – prevents the appearance of blue and mold, is applied in one layer, also prepares the surface for applying azure oil for wood Art. 260.

Short-term freezing of oils is not terrible. If the jars are tightly closed and completely filled, the oil will not dry out and a wax film will not form on the surface.

If the antiseptic creates an impermeable, synthetic film on the surface, then the oil will not be able to absorb into the wood (our products can only be applied to an absorbent surface).

In the composition of Azure Oil for wood Art. 260, as well as in all compositions for the street, LEINOS uses iodine-propinyl-butyl-carbamate (IPBC) as a fungicide.

Yes, Lignofix is a good antiseptic.

Intensive cleaner Art. 935 is designed for cleaning wood, stone and other surfaces from mold and mildew. This composition destroys microorganisms, but at the same time, it consists only of natural substances

Fungus and mold develop in the presence of a nutrient medium, high humidity and a comfortable temperature (plus 10 C and above). The fungicide has a depressing effect on the development of microorganisms, but its effect is limited in time and is mainly associated with the washing out of the composition by rains.

1. We recommend grinding. The polished surface evenly absorbs oil, this will affect the service life of the coating and the quality of the surface.

The most economical treatment: Azure for facades and fences LEINOS article 110. Azure is designed to protect wooden facades, fences and gazebos.

The surface polished with a grain size of P80-P100 will be much darker (richer in color) than the one polished with an abrasive P120. Reducing the grain size reduces the ability of the surface to absorb.

The recommendation to grind is preserved. Grinding removes aged wood fibers, protruding resin, and also opens pores and improves absorbency, which greatly affects the protective properties of the coating.

Oils under the Ultra Nature trademark are produced at the Reinckenaturfarbeng GmbH factory, known for its Leinos paints.

There are two types of spray guns: high and low pressure.

1) The type of wood and its density;

2) The surface was primed or the composition was applied without prior priming;

3) Grinding. The method of preparation and the grain size of the abrasive material.

4) The human factor. The thickness of the layer, as well as the application tool.

The main nuance is the coating with a colorless composition. Thermo wood, highly exposed to UV.

The presence and intensity of the smell depends on many factors. The smell in the jar and the smell after application are felt differently due to the different evaporation area.

The old coating must be completely removed. Otherwise, all the work will be in vain. The oil will not be absorbed into the surface and will not form on the film composition.

The reason for these changes lies in the reaction of linseed oil with titanium dioxide (white pigment). The area closed from the light has the property of turning yellow.

Sediment is a natural polymerization process of natural compounds, mainly waxes.

The reason is the quality of grinding, the oil shows all the defects of the material processing well. We recommend grinding with an abrasive material with a grain size of P100 or P120.

No. By wiping the composition with a cloth, you will weaken all the protective properties of the oil.

LEINOS oil is vapor permeable, it is deeply absorbed into the wood, binds to the fibers and forms a single whole with them. This structure allows the tree to breathe, which means it is good to preserve it

The grain size of the abrasive directly affects the absorbency of the wood.

Oils with a high wax content (Solid oil with wax Art. 290), work well on furniture, floors, wherever increased wear resistance is required.

The volumes of LEINOS cans are: 10L, 2.5l, 1L, 250ml, 125ml.

Surface grinding:
– removes dirt and tar
– removes small dents
– gives a transverse wave
– opens the pores of the tree
– makes the surface uniform in structure and improves its absorbency.
⠀
All this will have the best effect on the appearance, protective properties and durability of the painted surface. The drawing of the tree will look more interesting, and the consumption of paint or oil will be predictable.

Roller, brush, cloth, non-abrasive pad, spray gun, spatula.

Lessiruyuschaya coloring.
Lessiruyuschaya, this is when the tree is clearly visible and the drawing is viewed.

It is not difficult to navigate the assortment of LEINOS oils and waxes:

Fence – Art. 110 Azure for fences
Toys – Art. 600 Wax azure
Ladder – Art. 290 Solid oil with wax
Vintage furniture – Art. 637 Furniture paint
Parquet – Art. 290 Solid oil with wax and Art. 251 Glossy oil varnish
Tableware – Art. 280 Oil for countertops and Art. 240 Solid oil
Ceiling – Art. 261 Oil – azure for wood
Cutting boards – Art. 280 Oil for countertops
Sauna – Art. 310 Solid wax without solvent
Slab – Art. 290 Solid oil with wax and Art. 280 Oil for countertops
Walls of the room – Art. 259 Universal solid oil, Art. 261 Azure oil for wood
Countertop – Art. 280 Oil for countertops
Terrace – Art. 236 Oil for terraces
Outdoor furniture – Art. 223 Teak oil and Art. 236 Oil for terraces
Facade of the house – Art. 260 Oil – azure for wood, Art. 850 Weather-resistant paint – oil, Art. 264 Oil – azure metallic.

Yes, it will. LEINOS oils create a translucent coating, revealing the pattern and structure of the tree.

This technique is applied on a textured surface

“Water” paints can be both natural and synthetic. It’s not about the water that will evaporate when it dries.

The approximate price per square meter is about 180 rubles. according to the technology in two layers (indoors).

The paint market is widely controlled by international chemical companies, which, traditionally, are less concerned about environmental protection than other issues.

Many people suffering from allergies and asthma have received relief when using natural LEINOS paints.

If the glued beam is not dirty and has a good geometry, then you just need to open the pores of the wood. Grinding with a fine abrasive grain P100 or P120 will cope with this.

We recommend always pre-prepare the surface.

The service life of the facade, covered with Oil – azure for wood Art. 260 is 5-7 years before the renovation on the south side.

Every 1-2 years. After winter, look at the condition of the terrace, scratches and scuffs. You won’t have to polish it.

If it’s time to renew the tree, restore the damaged areas, then applying one layer of oil is enough.

No, because the painted surface with LEINOS compounds has antistatic properties and repels dust.

First of all, the composition – they are natural, the whole composition is fully registered on the bank. Only natural binders are used in the production of LEINOS oils.

Completely dried oil does not soften when heated.

Sawn longitudinally and transversely, wood absorbs liquids in different ways. In the knot, the tree is cut across the fibers and absorbs very well.

If we talk about the appearance of the lacquer coating and oil, then it’s a matter of taste.
Varnishes give the floors a smooth shiny surface

The pigments are light-resistant, they are UV protection. Dark colors absorb light, white and light reflect.

Changes in the appearance of the painted surface may be of a different nature.
The most unpleasant is peeling paint.

On the German website leinos.de there is no such information and that’s why. Polish is a furniture care product, applied in a very thin layer, after which the surface is polished dry with a soft cloth.

Surfaces that have been confirmed by intense loads need to be updated. This will restore all the protective properties of the coating and give the surface its original appearance.

A qualitatively painted decking made of pine or larch will serve for many years without resurfacing. Over time, the shine is lost and this is a natural process for the oil.
