Preparation

Pre-treat the floor with a waterborne primer from Bona. Allow the lacquer to reach room temperature, insert filter and shake the container thoroughly before use. Optimal conditions for use are between 18-25°C and 30-60% relative air humidity. High temperatures and low humidity shorten, low temperatures and high humidity lengthen drying time. Minimum temperature for use is 13°C.

1 Always pre-treat the floor with a waterborne primer from Bona.
Observe: It is not recommended to apply more than two full coats of primer and/or lacquer per day due to risk of excessive wood swelling. Ensure good ventilation during drying. Poor drying conditions may reduce product

Application

1) Shake the lacquer can forcefully for 30 seconds before use or before decanting smaller quantities.
2) Apply using a Bona Roller at 8-10 m2/litre (100-120 g/m2). Roll alternately across and with the grain of the wood avoiding accumulations of product. Always maintain a “wet edge” to avoid overlaps.
3) Allow to dry properly before applying further layers. Ensure proper ventilation.
4) If necessary, make an intermediate sanding using the Bona Scrad System P150 grit (or finer) and remove dust before applying a final layer of lacquer. Note: If the previous layer of lacquer/primer has been allowed more than 24 hours drying time then an intermediate sanding is always required.
After the final application, the surface can support light foot traffic after 8 hours and can be fully utilized after 24 hours. Allow the surface to dry for at least three days before covering with carpets or other floor coverings. Also avoid placing heavy objects or damp mopping the floor during this time.

Cleaning

Cleaning: Wipe tools free from excess lacquer before cleaning with water. Dried material can be removed with acetone

IMPORTANT!

Plasticisers found in materials such as carpet underlays, furniture legs, castors and adhesives used for fixing can lead to softening and discolouration. Exposure to hair dyes or rubber tyres on cars, cycles and baby strollers can lead to permanent, irreversible discolouration of the surface. Use protection or completely avoid contact.
• Spills should be removed promptly. Unattended spills may cause cosmetic stains or damage the surface.
• Please note that whilst Bona lacquers are designed to provide a sealed surface that is resistant to wear, scuffing and spillage, etc. No surface applied finish system can prevent physical damage to the timber or “harden” the floor. Indentations in the wood and scratches may be caused by furniture, dropped items, dog claws, etc. and steps should be taken to reduce the possibility of this occurring.
