Wood oil TIKKURILA Valtti Puuöljy Aqua 2.7 L waterborne wood oil for exterior and interior wood

TIKKURILA Valtti Puuöljy Aqua 2.7 L is a waterborne wood oil formulated to protect and finish wooden surfaces while preserving the natural look and texture of the wood. The oil penetrates into the wood structure to nourish fibres and provides a water-repellent surface layer suitable for both exterior and interior applications. The product is supplied in a 2.7-litre container and is intended for wooden cladding, fences, garden furniture, decking and other wooden elements that require protection with minimal change to appearance.

Advantages

Valtti Puuöljy Aqua combines deep penetration with a waterborne formula that reduces odour during application and dries faster than traditional solvent-based oils. It forms a breathable, water-repellent film that helps prevent moisture damage while allowing the wood to exchange vapour. The finish preserves the natural grain and surface texture, making it suitable when a subtle, low-sheen result is preferred. Application and future maintenance are straightforward, as re-coating requires light surface cleaning and a single follow-up coat in many cases.

Suitable for

• Exterior cladding and siding
• Wooden fences and gates
• Garden and patio furniture
• Decking and terraces
• Interior woodwork where a natural finish is desired

Key specifications

• Type: waterborne wood oil
• Volume: 2.7 litres
• Finish: natural, low sheen that preserves wood texture
• Performance: penetrative nourishment and water repellency
• Application: brush, roller or spray suitable for oils of this type
• Drying: faster drying profile compared to solvent-based oils (dependent on temperature and humidity)
• Suitable substrates: softwoods and hardwoods for exterior and interior use

How to use

Ensure the wooden surface is clean, dry and free from dust, mildew, grease or old flaking coatings. Stir the product thoroughly before use. Apply evenly with a brush, roller or low-pressure spray, working along the wood grain to ensure penetration. For new or highly absorbent wood, apply an initial saturating coat and allow adequate drying before applying a second coat for improved protection. Allow recommended drying times between coats; final surface hardness and water repellency develop after full curing, which depends on ambient conditions.

Usage recommendations

Apply at temperatures recommended by the manufacturer and avoid painting in direct rain or extreme humidity. On previously treated surfaces, test adhesion and appearance on a small area before full application. For maintenance, clean the surface and reapply one coat when water no longer beads or protection appears reduced. Follow local disposal regulations for any leftover product and containers.
