Step 1: Prepare the Surface
Before applying Rubio Monocoat, ensure that the wood surface is clean and dry. If you're working with Rubio Monocoat on plywood, you’ll need to remove any dust, dirt, or oils using a Rubio Raw Wood Cleaner. This will create the perfect surface for the oil to adhere to and give you a more even finish. For better results, especially on raw wood, you can also use Rubio Tannin Remover to treat any tannin stains that might be present. Once the surface is clean, you can move on to applying the product.
Step 2: Mix the Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C
For Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C, you need to follow the Rubio Monocoat mixture ratio carefully to ensure proper curing and finish. Mix the Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C (Part A) with the hardener (Part B) in the recommended ratio of 3:1. This is a critical step to activate the oil and ensure it bonds properly with the wood surface. If you are unsure about the mixture, you can always refer to the Rubio Monocoat color chart for specific instructions.
Step 3: Apply the Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C
Once your mixture is ready, apply the oil using a cloth or brush. Work in small sections, applying a thin layer of Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C to the surface of the wood. For a deeper finish, you can apply additional layers, but make sure the surface remains clean of excess product. The Rubio Monocoat colors will give the wood a rich, vibrant look, and with the easy application process, you’ll achieve professional results every time.

Step 4: Allow the Product to Cure
After application, allow the Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C to cure for at least 24 hours. During this time, ensure the area is well-ventilated and free from moisture. The curing process is essential for ensuring the longevity of the finish. You can check out the Rubio Monocoat 2C color chart to match your preferred tones while waiting for the finish to set.
Step 5: Maintenance and Care
Once the oil has fully cured, maintain the wood finish with products like Rubio Monocoat RMC Refresh Eco to keep the surface looking new. If needed, you can clean the surface with Rubio Monocoat Raw Wood Cleaner or use Rubio Limespot Remover for stubborn spots. Regular maintenance will prolong the beauty and protection of your wood surface.
