For soiled spots and high traffic areas, we recommend damp mopping with a mixture of Rubio Monocoat Surface Care or Rubio’s Soap, diluted 10:1 with water. IMPORTANT - Do not use cleaners other than Rubio Monocoat as most of these will harm hardwax oil finishes.

Use Rubio® Monocoat Charcoal Maintenance Oil to bring the color back to Barnwood flooring. First clean the floor with Rubio Monocoat Surface Care or Rubio’s Soap, diluted 10:1 with water and allow the floor to dry completely. Next, simply apply your charcoal maintenance oil with a cloth, brush or sponge to worn areas only. Allow the oil to penetrate for 1 minute then wipe excess oil with a clean cloth. Be sure to wait 4-6 hours after treating floors before you walk on or return furniture to the floor.

While still providing homeowners an effective and durable floor finish, hardwax oil finishes require a bit more TLC over the floor’s lifetime.
Typically, traditional finishes are added to the top of the wood, in layers, building up a dense scratch and moisture barrier that seals off the wood’s surface. Hardwax Oil finishes, however, penetrate the wood’s pores, bonding with its fibers to strengthen and protect the wood from within. Once cured, the surface hardens creating a soft matte sheen that highlights and bring out the wood’s bold grain and natural beauty.
