DESCRIPTION: Transparent, matt-finished sealing waxes
without synthetic additives BIO waxes seal the pores and form a
durable, anti-static surface that repels water and dirt. For use on
all types of wood surfaces as an alternative to lacquer or varnish,
especially on new and antique furniture, toys, shelves etc. BIO
Hard Floor Wax may be used on all types of timber floor surfaces,
stone, tile or slate. Not recommended for use where moisture or
condensation occur.
PREPARATION: Do not apply coatings to unseasoned or wet
timber. Wood should be well sanded, dry and cleaned of greasy, waxy
and dirty contaminants using BIO Thinner. Hardwoods and
timbers rich in natural oils, waxes, acids and terpenes should be
degreased using Bio Thinner, because these substances may mix with
the varnish and prolong its drying time. Imperfect coats may
require complete stripping before applying BIO Products.
APPLICATION: BIO Antique Wax and BIO Hard Floor Wax are
ready-to-use. It might be helpful especially during cold weather to
soften the wax by standing the container in a 60 +C water-bath.
Apply thinly and evenly with a lint free cloth or brush, working
the wax well into the grain. Thick coats may cause white streaks.
Polish after 3-5 hours.- do not leave until completely dry as
buffing is then very difficult. On stone, tile or slate thin BIO
Hard Floor Wax with 50% of BIO Thinner. Depending on wear and tear,
apply a new thin coat of wax every 4 to 6 months. Provide adequate
ventilation during application and drying.
MAINTENANCE: Wipe treated surfaces with a cloth moistened
with Bio Natural Cleaning Emulsion diluted at the rate of 50 ml in
5 Litres of warm water. Make sure that no moisture is allowed to
remain on the waxed surface because it will cause staining.
CLEANING: Use BIO Thinner.
COVERAGE: 1 Litre covers approx. 20-50 sqm., depending on
the absorbency of the wood, its surface conditions and the
application method. On floor boards: Softwood 20ml per sqm =
approx. 50 sqm per Litre. Hardwood 6-10 ml per sqm. = approx. 100 -
160 sqm.
PACKAGING: BIO Antique Wax 175 ml and 1 Litre. BIO Hard
Floor Wax 25o ml and 4 Litres.
PRECAUTION: Keep away from open flame and out of the
