BIO Antique and Hard Floor Wax

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 Timber Care Polish. Make sure that no moisture is allowed to remain on the waxed surface because it will cause staining.

INGREDIENTS: Beeswax, carnaubawax, earth/or paraffin wax, shellac wax, lemon peel oil, paraffin oils.

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.
