Both are maintenance products for varnished wood floors

When your floor is scratched and dull, it’s time to maintain it. Both the Bona Wood Floor Polish and the Bona Wood Floor Refresher. are formulated to maintain varnished wood floors Both products provide continued protection against wear, fill in micro-scratches and give new shine to a dull looking wood floor. And most importantly, they are easy to apply for a brand new floor look.

 

So, what’s the difference?

The biggest difference is how you can treat the surface at a later stage when your wood floor needs a major renovation. Bona Wood Floor Refresher creates better conditions for recoating because it is easier to sand off the floor, regardless of how many applications have been applied throughout the years. Bona Wood Floor Polish, on the other hand, is more difficult to remove when preparing a floor for a recoat.

Another difference is that Bona Wood Floor Polish is available in two gloss levels, matt and shiny depending on the look you want to achieve. While Bona Wood Floor Refresher is available in only one sheen that adapts to the current sheen of your floor; making it only slightly glossier. When it’s time to choose product, keep in mind what sheen level your varnished hardwood floor is today and always do a test in an inconspicuous place, so the result meet your expectations.

 

How do you use floor polish and refresher for wood floors?

We recommend watching  this short video on how to apply Bona Wood Floor Polish or Bona Wood Floor Refreher before applying either product. Just remember: clean your floors with Bona Wood Floor Cleaner, apply Bona Wood Floor Polish or Bona Wood Floor Refresher with a clean Bona Microfiber Applicator Pad and then simply let dry for at least an hour before walking on it in socks. We recommended waiting overnight before walking on your floors with shoes. And you do all this on your own, without the involvement of craftsmen.
