Aromatherapy Associates Nordicare Sealing Oil for Wood 5 L – protective wood sealing oil

Aromatherapy Associates Nordicare Sealing Oil for Wood 5 L is a penetrating wood sealing oil formulated for interior wooden surfaces. Designed to protect and nourish timber, the product works by soaking into wood fibres to improve moisture resistance and enhance the natural grain. The 5-litre format is intended for larger projects or multiple smaller surfaces such as furniture, floors and wooden fixtures that require a durable, subtle oil finish.

Advantages

This sealing oil penetrates deeply to form a protective, water-repellent layer within the wood rather than producing a film on the surface. It helps reduce swelling and shrinking caused by moisture changes and enhances the timber’s natural appearance by highlighting grain and colour without a glossy plastic coating. The formulation is suitable for interior use and compatible with commonly used timber types found in furniture and flooring, providing long-lasting nourishment and easy maintenance.

Suitable for

• Interior wooden floors that need a penetrating oil finish
• Solid wood and veneered furniture
• Skirting boards, doors and indoor wooden fixtures
• Renovation projects where moisture resistance and natural look are required

Key specifications

• Capacity: 5 litres, suitable for medium to large interior projects
• Function: penetrating sealing oil that provides moisture resistance and nourishment
• Finish: enhances natural timber grain with a subtle, low-sheen appearance
• Application area: interior wooden surfaces including furniture, floors and fixtures
• Performance: reduces moisture-related swelling and shrinking when applied correctly

How to use

Ensure the wooden surface is clean, dry and free of dust, wax or previous surface coatings that might prevent penetration. Stir the oil before use. Apply evenly with a lint-free cloth, brush or roller, working along the grain to ensure consistent penetration. Allow sufficient soaking time according to timber porosity, then remove excess oil from the surface after penetration to avoid sticky residues. For floors and high-traffic areas, apply additional coats as required, allowing appropriate drying time between coats and ensuring adequate room ventilation during curing.

Usage recommendations

Test the product on a small, inconspicuous area first to confirm absorbency and final appearance. Follow safety and disposal instructions on the product label. For best results on untreated or very dry timber, a primer coat or sanding between coats may improve penetration and finish uniformity.
