Osmo Polyx®-Oil - Hard Wax Oil 3065, Clear Semi-Matt, 750ml - Durable Wood Oil for Floors & Furniture, Water-Resistant, Wood Treatment & Wood Finish

I trawled through lots of reviews before purchasing the Osmo Polyx Oil Semi-Matt. As others have said, if you follow the instructions, it goes on really well without clouding the surface. I used it over a Littlefair's floor stain (Modern Oak on pine floorboards) and chose semi-matt as didn't want a completely dull floor. The sheen is very subtle, but looks good nonetheless. To avoid having to clean a brush I applied with a clean microfibre cloth and this worked brilliantly. It got easier as the cloth became more steeped in the oil - you need just enough so it glides over the surface - so I kept it in an airtight bag overnight for the second coat. The odour is quite strong and takes a while to dissipate but it's not unpleasant (reminded me of oil paint/art studios). The oil was a bit of an outlay but it goes a long way and I'll have enough for several rooms. The cost of prep, stain and oil compares favourably to carpeting and, in my opinion, looks far better.

Good stuff. Like the matt satin finish

Apart from being very expensive, this is the best floor protection you can get. Brush strokes disappear as it dries.

Beautiful finish and easy to apply. Very hard wearing. We have used on our lounge floor and kitchen

Easy to apply & a little goes a long way.

This stuff is amazing. It's the only thing I will treat wood with now

Brilliant. Brought my bannisters up lovely looking brand new. Be wary not to let the air into the can as it’ll create a thick film but it’s still usable. Is a bit of a pain to get the lid back on

Have used before. Easy to apply and gives a good finish. I used a tray and roller on a long handle.
