Greenfix is a plant-based furniture oil formulated with a linseed oil base, designed for the traditional oiling and finishing of untreated timber. Additionally, Greenfix functions as a maintenance oil for wooden furniture already featuring an oil and/or wax coat.

The oil forms a natural protective barrier on the wood, helping shield furniture against moisture, heat, and daily surface contamination. Greenfix reduces the likelihood of staining, improves surface wear resistance, and can render light, superficial water marks far less noticeable.

Greenfix accentuates the natural grain structure of timber, bestowing a warm, rich, and authentic appearance upon the furniture. Because oil penetrates directly into the wood structure, the original color tone will typically deepen and become slightly darker.

The product is compatible with a wide range of wood species, including oak, cherry, colonial wood, teak, beech, pine, and fir. Furthermore, Greenfix can be utilized for the periodic maintenance of suitable wooden garden furniture.

Meijer & Visser Upholstery recommends Greenfix for the traditional oiling, nourishing, and protection of compatible raw, oiled, and waxed wooden furniture.

Plant-Based Furniture Oil with a Linseed Oil Foundation

Greenfix is formulated as a plant-based furniture oil built upon a natural linseed oil foundation. Linseed oil is traditionally employed for conditioning and finishing timber, as it penetrates into the cellular structure of the wood to highlight its natural character.

Unlike an opaque lacquer finish, an oil treatment keeps the original wood grain distinctly visible, preserving a warm and tactile quality.

For Traditional Oiling of Raw Timber

Greenfix is suited for traditional oiling and finishing treatments on raw, untreated timber. Unfinished wood lacks a protective barrier against moisture, grease, and dirt, making it highly susceptible to staining.

Applying a few thin layers of Greenfix creates a natural protective coat, making the timber far more resilient against standard daily usage.

Maintenance Oil for Previously Oiled Furniture

An existing oil coat can gradually wear away due to daily friction, cleaning routines, and dry indoor air, leaving the wood looking dull, parched, or faded in high-touch spots.

Greenfix rejuvenates and feeds this existing oil finish. A thin maintenance application helps restore the natural color depth and overall luster.

Suitable for Wax-Finished Furniture

Greenfix can also serve as a care oil for wooden furniture featuring a compatible wax layer. Because wax formulations and wood finishes vary, preliminary testing is always essential.

Test Greenfix first on a small, hidden area. Allow the test spot to dry, then confirm that color response, sheen, and surface texture meet expectations.

Helps Prevent Staining

Untreated or under-nourished wood absorbs liquids and grease rapidly. Greenfix forms a natural protective barrier that limits the direct absorption of contaminants.

Note that oil does not make timber completely stain-proof. Always blot liquid spills immediately and utilize coasters or placemats on heavily used surfaces.

Moisture Protection

Greenfix helps shield wooden surfaces against brief moisture exposure. A well-maintained oil finish prevents water from soaking immediately into open wood fibers.

Never allow liquid to stand on the furniture long-term, as end-grain sections, joinery, and fine cracks absorb moisture rapidly.

Protection Against Heat

The natural oil barrier improves the wood's tolerance to standard heat exposure, reducing the likelihood of light thermal marks.

Never place boiling pots, hot dishes, or mugs directly onto raw or oiled wood surfaces; always use heat-resistant trivets or coasters.

Reduces Light Water Rings

Greenfix can mitigate the visibility of light, superficial water rings, provided the moisture has only affected the topmost finish without soaking deep into the timber.

Old, dark, or deeply embedded water stains cannot typically be eliminated with a standard maintenance oil.

Improves Surface Wear Resistance

By establishing a protective barrier within and on the wood, Greenfix improves the surface's resistance to daily wear and friction.

This is particularly beneficial for high-traffic pieces such as dining tables, writing desks, chairs, and cabinet tops. Regular maintenance remains necessary to preserve this protective coat.

Accentuates the Wood Grain

Greenfix penetrates into the wood structure, drawing out natural grain lines, color variations, and unique figure details.

This imparts a warmer, more dynamic appearance. Keep in mind that the original wood color will deepen or turn slightly darker after treatment.

Endows Furniture with a Warm Character

The oil brings out the innate warmth and depth of the timber. On raw, unfinished wood, the contrast before and after treatment is particularly striking.

Always conduct a test spot beforehand so you can evaluate whether the resulting color depth aligns with your preferences.

Suitable for Oak Wood

Oak features a prominent, rustic grain structure. Greenfix can be used for initial oiling on raw oak as well as for maintaining existing oil or wax finishes.

The oil enhances grain detail while shifting the natural tone of oak toward a warmer, slightly deeper shade.

Suitable for Cherry Wood

Cherry wood naturally possesses a rich reddish-brown tone that deepens significantly under oil treatments. Greenfix accentuates this natural coloration and grain structure.

A preliminary test spot is vital on cherry wood, as the final color response can differ noticeably from raw, un-oiled wood.

Suitable for Teak and Colonial Wood

Greenfix is compatible with teak and colonial timber species. Teak naturally contains natural oils and exhibits a warm, characterful grain.

After treatment with Greenfix, teak will turn visibly darker and warmer—a standard reaction when oiling dense exotic hardwoods.

Suitable for Beech Wood

Beech features a fine, uniform grain structure. Greenfix can be applied to provide raw beech with a natural oil finish.

The pale, creamy tone of beech will shift toward a warmer, deeper shade after oiling. Distribute the oil evenly to prevent localized color variations.

Suitable for Pine and Fir

Pine and fir are softer, highly absorbent wood species. Consequently, oil can absorb rapidly and unevenly across different grain sections.

Apply Greenfix thinly and in a controlled manner across whole surfaces to minimize dark blotches or uneven color distribution.

Suitable for Outdoor Wooden Furniture

Greenfix can also be utilized to maintain suitable wooden garden furniture exposed to sunlight, rain, dirt, and seasonal temperature swings.

Clean outdoor furniture thoroughly first and allow the timber to dry completely. Apply the oil during dry weather and allow the piece to cure in a sheltered, well-ventilated area.

Instructions for Oiled or Waxed Furniture

  1. Confirm that the existing finish is compatible with Greenfix.

  2. Test the oil on an inconspicuous area first.

  3. Pre-clean soiled furniture with WoodClean by Oranje.

  4. Allow the cleaned surface to dry completely.

  5. Use a sturdy, clean, and slightly damp cloth.

  6. Apply a small quantity of Greenfix to the cloth.

  7. Rub the oil into the surface using gentle circular movements.

  8. Allow the oil to dwell for a few minutes.

  9. Buff the surface thoroughly using a dry woolen cloth.

  10. Remove all visible excess product and oil residues.

  11. Allow the furniture to dry adequately before putting it back into service.

Instructions for Raw, Untreated Wood

  1. Confirm that the wood is completely raw and unfinished.

  2. Test Greenfix on a small, hidden spot first.

  3. Lightly and evenly sand the timber if necessary.

  4. Carefully wipe away all sanding dust.

  5. Ensure the surface is clean and bone dry.

  6. Apply Greenfix thinly with a sturdy, slightly damp cloth.

  7. Rub the oil into the wood evenly using circular motions.

  8. Allow the product to dwell for a few minutes.

  9. Buff the surface thoroughly with a dry woolen cloth.

  10. Allow the surface to dry for a minimum of 15 minutes.

  11. Repeat the treatment several times for maximum protection.

  12. Allow the furniture to cure completely after the final coat.

Pre-Clean Soiled Furniture with WoodClean

Furniture with accumulated dirt, grease, handling marks, or old care residues must be cleaned with WoodClean by Oranje prior to oiling.

Applying Greenfix over a dirty surface locks contaminants beneath the new oil layer, leaving permanent discoloration or blotches.

Allow Wood to Dry Completely

Apply Greenfix only when the substrate is 100% dry. Trapped moisture causes clouding, color discrepancies, and erratic oil absorption.

Let the furniture air-dry naturally at ambient room temperature; avoid using hairdryers or direct heating appliances.

Lightly Sand Raw Wood

Raw timber may be lightly sanded prior to oiling to knock down raised wood fibers and smooth out minor surface roughness.

Always sand uniformly parallel to the direction of the wood grain. Remove every trace of dust before applying Greenfix.

Apply Thinly with a Sturdy Cloth

Apply Greenfix in thin coats using a sturdy, slightly damp cloth. Do not apply more oil than the wood fibers can absorb uniformly.

A thick layer slows down curing time and can result in a tacky or uneven surface.

Rub in Circular Movements

Work the oil into the wood structure using smooth, circular motions. Ensure uniform coverage across the entire area and prevent localized pooling.

Treat complete tabletops, cabinet panels, or logical structural sections at once.

Buff with a Dry Woolen Cloth

Allow Greenfix to dwell on the surface for a few minutes, then buff thoroughly using a clean, dry woolen cloth.

Buffing removes excess surface oil and distributes the remaining product evenly across the timber.

Multiple Coats for Maximum Protection

For raw, untreated wood, applying multiple thin coats is recommended. Each consecutive coat builds up deeper conditioning and protection.

Allow at least 15 minutes of flash-off drying time between coats. Apply the next layer only when the surface is no longer visibly wet.

Full Curing Time of 24 Hours

The complete drying and curing cycle takes approximately 24 hours. Actual drying time depends on the wood species, ambient temperature, humidity, room ventilation, and application thickness.

Handle the furniture with care while drying and avoid placing heavy or damp objects on the treated surface.

Coverage Rate on Untreated Wood

A 250 ml bottle of Greenfix covers approximately 5 to 6 m² on raw, untreated wood.

Raw timber absorbs significantly more oil than previously finished wood; actual consumption varies based on wood porosity and grain structure.

Coverage Rate on Treated Wood

On previously oiled or maintained timber, 250 ml of Greenfix covers approximately 7 to 8 m².

Because the wood fibers already contain an established finish layer, far less oil is required for routine maintenance.

Recoating Greenfix with Stain Oil

A surface treated with Greenfix can later be recoated with Stain Oil (Beitsolie) to add color tones or supplementary surface protection.

Always verify product compatibility guidelines and execute a test spot before mixing application systems.

Do Not Recoat with Natural Woodsealer

Greenfix must not be recoated or top-coated with Natural Woodsealer. These two finish systems are incompatible in this sequence.

Determine your desired finishing path beforehand and use products engineered to work together.

Greenfix for a Wooden Dining Table

A wooden dining table endures daily contact with spills, grease, heat, and cutlery friction. Greenfix helps build a resilient natural protective layer.

Clean the tabletop thoroughly first, treat the full surface area in one session, and utilize placemats and coasters post-cure to preserve the finish.

Greenfix for Cabinets and Sideboards

Cabinets and sideboards can turn dull or dry over time due to central heating, sunlight, and low ambient humidity.

Apply Greenfix thinly across full door or side panels, stopping at natural joinery lines to prevent visible overlapping borders.

Greenfix for Wooden Chairs

On wooden chairs, wear concentrates on armrests, backrests, and seat perimeters.

Apply small amounts of oil and take care to prevent Greenfix or cleaner from touching fabric, leather, or upholstered sections.

Greenfix for Garden Furniture

Outdoor wooden furniture dries out rapidly when exposed to rain, sunlight, and temperature shifts. Greenfix can be used to restore an oil finish on outdoor timber.

Ensure the wood is completely clean and dry before oiling. Let the treated garden furniture cure in a sheltered, well-ventilated space.

Can Greenfix Remove Deep Scratches?

No, Greenfix is a conditioning and maintenance oil, not a wood filler or scratch repair kit. It can make superficial dry scuffs less noticeable by nourishing wood fibers, but deep gouges and physical scratches cannot be eliminated with oil.

Can Greenfix Remove Old Water Rings?

Greenfix can lessen the visibility of light, recent surface water rings. The outcome depends on how deep the moisture penetrated into the timber.

Old, dark, or deeply embedded water stains cannot be removed through routine oil maintenance.

Greenfix Replaces Ecotone Oil

Greenfix serves as the direct successor to Ecotone Oil. Customers who previously used Ecotone Oil for traditional oiling and timber maintenance can seamlessly transition to Greenfix.

Greenfix Replaces Kleurolie Klassiek

Greenfix also replaces Kleurolie Klassiek. When switching products, always test first to ensure color response and sheen align with your existing furniture.

Greenfix Grey and Greenfix White

  • Greenfix Grey replaces Kleurolie Grijs (Color Oil Grey).

  • Greenfix White replaces Kleurolie White Wash.

These colored variants are engineered for specific color effects. Always execute a test spot with tinted oils on a hidden section first.

Common Errors to Avoid

  • Using Greenfix without verifying the existing finish type

  • Skipping a preliminary test spot

  • Failing to account for color darkening (especially on teak or cherry)

  • Applying oil onto dirty, greasy, or damp timber
