Because of the wide range of possible uses and conditions of application of our products, we do not relieve users from the need to carry out their own trials or to seek technical advice from Bona before use.

    TDS Important

    Bona Intense should never be used as the final treatment for wood floors.

    TDS Main USP

    WATERBORNE PRIMER

    TDS Preparation

    Ensure the floor is acclimatised to its end-use environment. The surface must be sanded back to bare wood, dry and free from sanding dust, oil, wax and other contamination. Sanding with a 120 grit abrasive using a Bona Quattro Disc, or similar equipment is recommended for the final sanding of the wood. Allow the product to reach room temperature. Optimal application conditions are between 18-25°C and 30-60% relative humidity. High temperatures and low humidity shorten, low temperatures and high humidity lengthen drying time. In dry and/or warm conditions max 4% Bona Extender may be added to prolong the open time and reduce the risk of overlapping and discolouration. Minimum temperature for use is 13°C. Observe: Tropical wood species such as Teak, Ipe, Smoked Oak, Wenge and similar species as well as some softwoods, contain natural ingredients – tannins, oils, resins and minerals, which can lead to significant lengthening of the drying time, wetting issues or colour changes. It is strongly recommended that the timber species is identified, and a trial application carried out to assess the colour and general appearance of the system
