DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Untreated/sanded floors:
Ensure that the surface is absolutely clean, dry and free from dust, wax, grease, polish etc. Sand the surface to remove dirt and irregularities. Vacuum thoroughly and wipe off with a cloth well wrung in clean water.
- Prime with one coat of MT400 Floor Lacquer and allow drying for 24 hours.
- Sand with sandpaper grit 150-180 along the fibres of the wood.
- Vacuum sanding dust and wipe off with a cloth well wrung in clean water.
- Apply 2 finishing coats of MT400 Floor Lacquer.
Previously sealed floors:
- Wash with Junckers Neutralizer.
- Sand thoroughly using grit 150-180.
- Vacuum sanding dust and wipe off with a cloth well wrung in clean water.
- Apply one coat of MT400 Floor Lacquer and leave to dry.
- Before lacquering the full area, it is recommended to conduct a trial application on a smaller area.
How to conduct a trial application:
Lacquer a couple of spots, 2 coats at 4 hours interval. After drying for 24 hours check the spots for adhesion by scraping with the edge of a coin. If the adhesion is functioning and the appearance of the surface is acceptable, the floor can be lacquered. If the result is not acceptable, continue as described under “Wax/polish treated floors”.
Wax/polish treated floors:
- Machine sand using grit 24-36 to strip old coats.
- Then remove abrasion marks with grit 60-80. Finally, use grit 120-150 to obtain a completely smooth surface.
- Vacuum sanding dust and wipe off with a cloth well wrung in clean water.
- Then seal the floor as described under “Untreated/sanded floors”.
