TDS Application Notes
INITIAL APPLICATION The surface must be sanded back to bare wood, dry and free from sanding dust, oil, wax, and other contamination. It is recommended to finish with 120 grit abrasives. 1. Apply a very thin, even coat across the entire floor avoiding accumulations of product. Where possible, apply with the direction of the grain. 2. Leave to dry for a minimum of 6-8 hours. Ensure good ventilation. 3. Abrade the surface with a Bona Scrad Pad (without wings) or Bona Diamond Abrasives of 240 grit. 4. Remove dust thoroughly and apply another thin coat across the entire floor in the same manner as before. 5. Do not traffic the floor until it has had at least 18 hours drying time. When possible, it is preferable to leave it longer. MAINTENANCE APPLICATION 1. Clean the surface with Bona Cleaner. On heavily soiled floors it is recommended to use the Bona PowerScrubber with Bona Deep Clean Solution. Any remaining dirt will be trapped in the coating and may interfere with the subsequent application of Bona Hard Wax Oil. 2. Make a very light sanding with Bona Diamond Abrasives 240 grit or Bona Scrad pad with 150 grit wings. 3. Thoroughly remove sanding dust. 4. Apply a very thin, even coat across the entire floor avoiding accumulations of product. Where possible, apply with the direction of the grain. 5. Allow to dry for at least 12 hours, preferably longer, before resuming traffic on the floor.
