Texture

To create a brushed surface, the usual sanding procedure just won't cut it. But with the unique Bona Brush Technology, you'll have the tools you need to add depth and texture to the surface.

It gets right down to the grain, to create texture, from two-tone contrasts, to eye-catching, contemporary two-colour effects.

Colour tone with primers

The varied collection of Bona primers gives you the freedom of choice regarding the expression of your floor – from cool white to intense warmth.

Protect and shine with lacquers

As the pioneer of waterborne lacquers, Bona’s specially designed formulas are the most durable in the industry and they won’t fade, amber or change colour over time. When it comes to highlighting the true beauty and elegance of the wood floor in your home, Bona lacquers are simply the best.

Deepen the feeling with coloured oil

If you want an even more intense colour transformation of your wood floor, our coloured oils are the answer. All of the oils can be overcoated with the lacquers shown above for a more durable protection. Ask your Bona Certified Craftsman for the correct lacquer to choose.
