Application
Before application, the wood floor should be properly prepared, cleaned, and screened according to the manufacturer's recommended wood-floor preparation procedures.
Mix the finish with the supplied catalyst according to the current product label. Apply evenly using the recommended applicator while maintaining a wet edge. Allow adequate drying time between coats and provide sufficient ventilation during application and curing.
For previously finished floors, proper screening and preparation are important to ensure adhesion and a uniform final appearance.
Important Considerations
Use only on properly prepared compatible wood flooring.
Follow the manufacturer's specified catalyst ratio and mixing procedure.
Maintain appropriate ventilation during application and curing.
Do not return catalyzed product to the original container.
Follow the current label and SDS for application, PPE, drying, and recoat requirements.
