Rubio Monocoat Precolor Easy

Furniture and stairs 

1. Sand the surface scratch-free. Finish with screening net 100 to 150, the color intensity depends on the sanding method used. 
   • When renovating, you must remove all the residues from previous treatments completely (varnish, oil, wax, etc.). 
2. Vacuum thoroughly and eliminate remains of dust with Rubio Monocoat Cleaner. Wait until the surface is completely dry
   (check the technical datasheet of the Cleaner before use). 
3. Stir the product thoroughly and regularly with a stirring stick. 
4. Apply an amount of Rubio Monocoat Precolor Easy with the Rubio Monocoat Brush and spread out using a red Rubio Monocoat Scrubby Pad. Wipe out evenly with a lint-free cloth. Work in small areas to avoid overlapping.
   • For smaller objects and corners you can also use the green Rubio Monocoat Mouse Pad. 
5. Allow the surface to dry for ± 12 hours. The exact drying time depends on the foundation, moistening, temperature and ventilation. 
6. After drying, break the raised wood fibres with a red Scrubby Pad and vacuum afterwards. 
7. Now apply the Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C. Please consult the technical data sheet of the oil for a correct application. Be careful, in combination with Precolor Easy it is best to use a white Scrubby Pad instead of a beige or red one when applying the oil!
