Questions & Answers
Is this product good to use on an exterior wooden door and can it withstand intense sun without peeling
Happy to clear things up, Robin! Rust-Oleum Watco Danish Oil is suitable for interior surfaces only and will withstand exposure to the elements. For exterior surfaces, we recommend Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil instead. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Watco-1-Quart-Teak-Oil-in-Clear-A67141/100154957 - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3
Is it vapor permeable? Will wood finished with this be able to dry if it absorbs water?
Happy to help, Edward! Rust-Oleum Watco Danish Oil is not a waterproofing finish and water and vapor will still be able to pass through the coating. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3
Can I apply a wax finish like Osmo top oil on top of this stain, after 72 hours from the last coat?
Great question! Yes, you can apply a wax over Rust-Oleum Watco Danish Oil once it has fully dried. Please keep in mind, you will need to remove the wax if you choose to apply a polyurethane over the surface at a later time or need to reapply the Danish oil. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3
Can tung oil be applied over Watco Danish Oil?
Happy to clear things up, Robert. Since Rust-Oleum Watco Danish Oil is a penetrating product, it can prevent other penetrating oils from properly penetrating. If using another brand of tung oil, a test application would be needed. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3
What’s the cure time
We're happy to help, Izzy. Rust-Oleum Watco Danish Oil will fully cure 3 days after applying. Please note that, factors like low temperatures or not removing the excess oil will hinder the oil from properly curing. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14
Is watco danish oil food safe for a countertop
Suem, happy to clarify! While Watco Danish Oil provides a durable protective finish, it is not considered food safe. You may consider Rust-Oleum Watco Butcher Block Oil and Stain instead, as this is food safe and can be applied to a bare interior countertop. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Watco-1-Pint-Butcher-Block-Oil-in-Carbon-Gray-4-Pack-370150/316454425
I’ve sanded down an oak table to make into a coffee table. Was thinking of using just stain until I saw this product. Question… would I have to put a poly spray on top after it dries or is it matte and perfect on its own?
Happy to help, Kathy! Rust-Oleum Watco Danish Oil will have a low sheen hand rubbed finish. If left as is, maintenance coats would be needed to repair surface scratches and to remove minor stains. Otherwise, a polyurethane can be applied over it in the finish of your choice once the danish oil has been allowed to dry for at least 72 hours. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3
I have the dark walnut oil. Can I add stain to it to make it darker, and if so, which type would mix in the best?
Thank you for reaching out. We do not recommend adding any additional colorant or stain to our Rust-Oleum Watco Danish Oil as this will alter the formulation of the oil and can hinder the performance and penetration. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14
