    TDS Application Notes

    1. Using an application sleeve or a fine, wide floor brush, apply one even layer of Bona Rich Tone in the direction of the wood at 8-10 m²/litre (100-120 g/m²). Overlap wet-on-wet. 2. If more intensity is desired or if the first application is uneven, then it is possible to apply a second layer after 1-2 hours. 3. Allow the final application to dry for 5-10 hours. 4. Gently sand the surface with a Bona Scrad Pad attached under a buffing machine (low rpm). Move the machine quickly and systematically. 5. Vacuum to remove dust. 6. Protect the surface by applying either Bona Craft Oil, Bona Craft Oil 2K and/or Bona Hard Wax Oil as per the treatment schedule. Allow drying overnight between each application. Note: Bona Hard wax oil must always be used for the final coat.
