Finish for outdoor use
Surface treatment
- Faber climbing frames for outdoor use should be treated only with Antonie Emma oil
from our e-shop. In case of not following instructions (e.g. use of not approved oil) any claim will not be
accepted.
When should I apply Faber oil?
1) If you plan to use the climbing frame outdoor.
2) If you want the climbing frame to be more dirt resistant.
3) if you want Faber to last not 50, but 150 years.
How to apply oil on Faber climbing frames:
1) Think about how much oil you need. Normally 50 ml of oil is required per panel OR for 10 pcs of different
"T" connectors.
2) Do not forget to buy an oil kit in our eShop, where you will find everything you need, including cover paper.
3) Use brush to apply the first layer of oil and spread it thoroughly. Apply oil in all holes, including the
threaded holes and make sure that there is no large amount of oil left in these areas (remove excess oil with a
tissue, for example). Let the first coat dry in a well-ventilated room at the minimal temperature of 18°C for at
least 5 hours before applying the second coat.
4) Apply the second layer in the same way as for the first layer. Allow to dry in a well-ventilated room for 24
hours. The oil will harden completely in the next ten days. We recommend that you wait before you start using
oiled climbing frames. However, with precaution , you can use climbing frame 24 hours after the second coat.
5) For a smooth surface, we recommend to sand all parts with the sanding fleece provided in the oil kit.
