FAQ

How many coats of Uno and Secondo Oils can be applied?

Generally, the manufacturer recommends one coat of Uno oil (for color) and two coats of Secondo oil. However, if you do not wish to use Uno oil in order to maintain the natural color of the wood, an additional coat of Secondo will be required.

If you want to color the wood, you can apply up to two coats of Uno oil at 24-hour intervals. As for Secondo oil, you can apply 5 to 7 coats, or 3 to 5 coats if you use Secondo Mono Oil.

Note that the more coats of Secondo or Secondo Mono you apply, the more satin-like the finish will be. It is therefore recommended to apply one or two additional coats to improve wear resistance and reduce the frequency of refreshing.

Very Pleased!

Robert Steadman · Nov 11, 2023

I find this finishing oil to be a very good product! It is just as advertised!

Excellent Product!!

Ian Almey · Jun 29, 2021

It worked exactly as advertised. I used this product on my century old floors. After removing several layers of old finish, I applied 3 coats of Secondo. It performed extremely well. The only thing to consider is the coverage. My 120 year old flooring drank up a lot more finish than normal and my coverage dropped dramatically but it was still worth it. The results are worth it. I highly recommend this product!
