Although Rubio Monocoat is a one coat system, porous wood such as fir may require a second light coat 24-36 hours after the initial application; for this, you would use a maroon/red pad to open up the surface, lightly apply the second coat, buff with a white pad, and remove any excess with a towel. Additionally, coverage rates for Douglas Fir are lower than for hardwoods, as fir is more porous and absorbs more oil.
