osmo poly is really good stuff. i've been using it to protect my solid oak woodwork for a while now as it leaves a much paler natural colour. I'm not a fan of the 70s fake tan danish oil look. It also smells quite nice :D
@MattHutton4 жыл бұрын
I second that the danish oil looks a bit old and cheap on some woods. Osmo keep the wood a much more natural colour and not to glossy, more of a sheen.

I used a good quality grab adhesive like this: amzn.to/30AayiC when you push it up against the wall it grips on like Velcro and it won’t fall back then you can just continue applying pressure all around the sheet until you’re happy that it is positioned correctly and flush with all surrounding sheet (kind of like what you would do with tiles) The gap between sheets is actually 3mm hard board/mdf cut into 6mm strips (same thickness as the birch ply) and then superglued to the edges of the birch ply to make sure they stayed in position. This is not necessary, it’s just done for effect and to break up the pieces of birch ply, because 1 sheet was 2440mm tall but our wall was 2550mm so we decided to break up the pieces to give it a tiled effect, as one sheet wouldn’t extent all the way from the floor to ceiling anyway. 8ft sheet are half the price of 10ft sheets in the UK so we didn’t see the sense in using a sheet 10ft sheet. The gap at the top was later filled, with more birch ply, just not in this video. I hope that helps. :)

Hi dan, grab adhesive works very well. www.toolstation.com/everbuild-solvent-free-multi-stick-grab-adhesive/p38941 this one in particular works very well. Holds it on the wall even if the wood is bowed. The pads polish the surface nicely. And get ride of excess liquid. It buffs the surface
@timhurring5454 Жыл бұрын
Hi Matt, I really enjoyed the video. We’re also planning to use Osmo on our Birch ply walls. My local supplier recommended using a roller. Why did you use the Scotch Brite pads instead of a roller? Also, the supplier recommended using 100 - 120 grit sandpaper (which I thought was strange). As a result, my tests don’t have a smooth sheen. I’ll do some more using 240 grit like you.

@MattHutton3 жыл бұрын
To me it looks the same as when I applied it a year and a half ago but it may have yellowed slightly it’s hard to tell. If your worries about yellowing go for the osmo raw. It got a white-ish look to it and keeps the wood closest to its original colour. Check out my osmo oil comparison video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWWzop-Vf7KEhrc

David G the osmo oil is pretty waterproof. It’s use for worktops kitchen cabinets and so lots of environments in moist conditions. I wouldn’t recommend using it in constant contact with water from the shower, but in the same room should be fine as long as the wood is completely sealed with the osmo :) it’s got like a hard wax surface and oil that penetrates into the wood so it’s pretty water repellent to be honest
