A- OIL FINISH:

Two applications of hard wax oil on your wooden floor will deliver a beautiful natural finish that is moisture and dirt resistant.

Please be aware that it will take up to 2 hours for the floor to cure enough to allow light foot traffic. Furniture should only be moved back about 24 hours after foot traffic has commenced. (Avoid, at all cost, dragging furniture on a freshly treated floor surface.)

B- LACQUERED FINISH:

Application of a Primer to the sanded floor followed by 2 coats of water based lacquer.

Once the first coat has cured, the floor will be prepared for a further 2 coats of lacquer. Please be aware that it may take up to 4 hours for the floor to cure enough to allow light foot traffic. Furniture should only be moved back about 24 hours after foot traffic has commenced. (Avoid, at all cost, dragging furniture on a freshly treated floor surface.)
