- The answer is no. The products are based on a unique molecular bonding technology that does not require a topcoat application at all. Instead, the product provides superior protection (in a one-step application) of the wood surface compared to other oils and/or penetrating-oil wood finishes.

Jul 4, 2023 · While there is lots of information on it as a finish for floors or furniture, I haven't found much about it being used as a marine finish on boats for teak. I am currently doing some tests, with several pieces of teak, one outside and one inside where two coats of Rubio Monocoat have been applied.

Rubio Monocoat’s products are a special oil base with no water or solvents. So it’s a great way to DIY sustainablyas it emits 0% Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) when used, unlike other stains and paints. This means no chemical substances are evaporating into the air when used. VOCs can be harmful to people, causing allergic reactions or breathing...
A lighter wood naturally that’s heavy with straight grain and typically a more coarse, uneven texture. If using heartwood, then the color is a light to medium brown. The lighter Rubio Monocoat finishes all look fairly similar. It is known for its durability, rot resistance, and strength. If you want to keep the more raw wood look, then we’d recomme...
Red Oak is very similar to White Oak, but with a more reddish tone to it. Similarly, it has a straight grain and coarse and uneven texture. Red Oak used to be very popular for cabinets and other uses but has gradually fallen from favor.
Walnut is a naturally darker hardwood with a medium to dark brown tone, and straight grain, though it can be irregular. This is one of the most common woods used to make high-quality furniture due to its natural color and strength. Personally, we don’t see why you’d apply the Natural or White 5% that white-washes the Walnut. You likely already paid...
Another lighter wood, Curly Maple is all about the wood grain and can come from various different types of maple. It has a beautiful wavy rippled or “curled” texture that runs in a horizontal pattern perpendicular to the wood grain. These ripples have a distinct iridescence to them that catches the light. Love the look of all the finishes on this C...
Alder tends to have a light tan to reddish brown tone and can redden with age. It has a fine, uniform texture with a typically straight wood grain. Alder is a softer hardwood and isn’t very decay-resistant so it needs to be finished. Alder is typically sold in two different varieties. Knotty or Rustic Alder has a multitude of knots while Clear Alde...
Sapele is naturally a more golden to dark reddish brown with an interlocking grain and finer uniform texture. It’s in the same family as Mahogony, but it is a more sustainable option. Its grain also tends to have an iridescent shimmer to it. Again, applying the Natural and White 5% really wash out the beautiful tones of the Sapele. Personally, woul...
Elm has a light to medium reddish brown tone to it with a coarse, uneven texture and interlocking grain. We’ve found there are a lot more variations in color in each wood board you typically buy with a large color difference between the heartwood and the sapwood. Many Elm Varieties were wiped out by the Dutch Elm Disease years back, but some variet...
Fair warning, depending on what screen you’re looking at, the color of the finishes will look slightly different. Some screens are color calibrated and some aren’t. Also, these images were taken in natural daylight on an early Autumn morning. So the color could look different in your home depending on the color/temperature of your light bulbs and t...
I’ll be honest, this one confused us at first. Naming colors and finishes is always difficult for companies, and choosing the correct wood finish for a “clear” natural wood look can be challenging. But it’s simply a matter of understanding what the finish is made with and the natural tones of the wood species you’re using. Neither Rubio Monocoat’s ...
Jun 28, 2022 · In this article, we’ll compare and contrast two of the most popular boat finishes: Rubio Monocoat vs Osmo wax finish. We’ll explain the benefits of each wood finish, the purpose of stain colors for wood, and tell you which furniture restorer is better for your needs.
Jun 26, 2023 · The other three finishes (Rustic Lumber, Natura, and Rubio) were indiscernible. Note that Osmo was the only finish in the test that had a decent amount of gloss after just one coat. All others showed a significant improvement in sheen after a second coat but still couldn’t match Osmo.
It is important with Rubio to keep wiping the surface until your shop towel comes up dry or else you will risk having an un-smooth finish. Make sure to dispose of the wet rags properly so they don't spontaneously combust.
Both Odie’s oil and Rubio Monocoat are hard wax oil finishes that penetrate wood, leaving very little film behind on the surface. They both rub out into a satin covering that, whilst water-repellent, is not wholly 100% waterproof.
