Oiling parquet again - moving furniture away or oiling around it, experiences

Which oil should I use and how do I best oil?

There are many options and suppliers.
I have liked using Osmo so far, I always found it versatile; but for the new house it will now be Livos.
Stiftung Warentest even recently once chose a glaze from the Toom hardware store as the winner. If I were you, I would have the different suppliers shown to me at the specialist dealer.

With me, the floor layer applied two coats of Osmo hard wax oil. After that, you should probably add some oil to the mopping water. I didn't have to do that (and I hardly mop anyway).

I have now bought a 5l canister of linseed oil from the horse supplies store. I use it on my solid wood worktop and add a splash to the mopping water for the floor and will soon apply a whole coat on the floor. Apply thinly, remove the excess after 20 minutes. The 5 liters cost 25 euros.

If I had time, I would save myself the expensive Osmo stuff (10l costs 350 euros) and just oil with linseed oil. However, it dries very slowly and you can't walk on the floor then. I am satisfied with the hard wax oil, except for the price.

Pure linseed oil is rubbish for parquet. If at all, use boiled linseed oil varnish. Apart from that, properly treated wood needs very frequent maintenance. So better leave it alone. Pure linseed oil can take weeks, depending on the wood, to dry sufficiently (unlike hard oil, it does not cure - so little protection). There is a reason why special products exist. For example, hard oil, if the wood is to remain open-pored. With hard wax oil, the wood is sealed and it is similar to a lacquered surface. Normally, parquet only needs to be oiled again after years.

The post is already older, but I still have a question. You write that your floor is one year old and already needs to be oiled again. Then you write that you want/need to buy 10 liters of Osmo oil. I am very surprised about the time frame and quantity.

What kind of parquet do you have? My Haro parquet was oiled with Haro oil after installation; 1 liter is enough for 200m². It is sprayed on thinly and then worked in. The floor still looks like new after 2.5 years. I assume that we might need to oil the living area once after 7-10 years. How can you work 10 liters of oil into the floor? Does a layer of oil form on the wood? How can you "wear out" such a large amount of oil again in one year?

I bought 10l for price reasons. They were only slightly more expensive than 5 liters. I do not use all 10l at once.
