Wood Finishes



Different types of wood finishes
Different types of wood finishes

Applying different finishes to wooden floors offers a range of benefits that enhance both the aesthetics and longevity of the surface. Firstly, finishes provide a protective layer that shields the wood from moisture, stains, and daily wear and tear. This protection prevents the wood from absorbing spills or being easily scratched, extending the lifespan of the floor. Additionally, finishes enhance the natural beauty of the wood by enriching its colour, depth, and grain patterns. They can be selected to achieve a desired appearance, whether it's a glossy shine, a subtle matte finish, or a more rustic look. Finishes also offer versatility, allowing homeowners to customise their floors to suit various design styles and preferences. Furthermore, finishes can improve the durability of the wood, making it more resistant to fading, discolouration, and UV damage caused by sunlight exposure. Certain finishes, such as polyurethane or varnish, create a hard, protective coating that withstands heavy foot traffic and daily use. Finishes simplify maintenance by providing an easy-to-clean surface that resists dirt and stains. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping are usually sufficient to keep the floor looking its best. Overall, applying different finishes to wooden floors enhances their visual appeal, protects them from damage, increases their durability, and simplifies maintenance, ensuring a beautiful and long-lasting investment in any space.

A) Bona Mega - Extra Matt

Suitable for homes and commercial spaces with normal wear, Mega offers good resistance to wear, scuff marks and scratches, as well as very good chemical resistance. Now Mega is available in an Extra Matt version for where a totally matt, non reflective look is required. Mega still holds a unique position on the market due to its innovative crosslinking formula which reacts with oxygen and gives the benefits of a two component product.

B) Bona Create

Bona Create delivers a range of modern, natural colours for wooden floors. A new cobalt-free, low VOC formulation, Create colours have a long open time and give beautiful, even colouration to new or existing floors. Compatible with all Bona lacquers and oils, there are nine beautiful colours to choose from – why not show your customers how their floors can be transformed by colour by using our new "Inspiration House" feature at bona.com

C) Miss & Fill Plus

Mix & Fill was re-formulated this year as a waterborne gap filler with improved filling capacity, short drying time and good abrasion properties. Under normal conditions you only need to apply it once, which means that you save time, money and effort. Because Mix & Fill Plus
is designed to be mixed with sanding dust from the floor to be treated, colour matching is always perfect even with exotic timbers which previously were problematic. Plus you are working without unpleasant smells and hazardous fumes!

D) New Sportive Paint

Part of our Sportive range, our new Sportive Paint is designed for line marking as well as complete colour zones, borders and logos. The eight vibrant colours can be mixed if required to achieve an endless pallet of custom shades. The new formulation gives excellent opacity and there is no need to sand between coats, so less risk of damaging the surface.

E) Easy Cleaning

We’ve developed a really easy way for home owners to keep their wooden floors looking as good as the day you finished them! An easy to use spray mop that features a refillable cartridge of our Bona Wood Floor Cleaner. Cleaning wooden floors just couldn’t be simpler! The new
Bona Spray Mop fits nicely into our range of consumer cleaning products for Wood and Hard floors.

F) NMP Free

People are talking about the implications of NMPfree coatings a lot at the moment as NMP-free formulations will soon become mandatory under new EU legislation. But there’s no need to worry if you use Bona products – our waterborne lacquers have been NMP free for years!

Water Based Laquers

Bona water based lacquers – the benefits!
Bona lacquers are water based, clean and safe to work with and give off very little odour. Solvent based products emit toxic, strong smelling and lingering fumes
Bona water based lacquers combine high performance with low impact on the environment. All Bona lacquers already comply with (and exceed) stringent EU
legislation on emission levels
Bona’s comprehensive range means you have a wide choice of sheen levels, colouration and performance properties to choose from – your contractor will be able to help you select the right finish for your floor
Some contractors use generic wood lacquers which, unlike Bona products, are not designed specifically for coating wooden floors. With Bona lacquers you know your contractor is using the most effective product for the job

Dust Free Sanding

Dust free sanding – the benefits!
No need to cover bookshelves, electronic equipment, curtains and soft furnishings
No need to spend time cleaning up afterwards
Powerful 2-step cyclonic vacuum unit captures all dust generated on the spot
Hospital-grade HEPA filter delivers air back into the room which is 99.996% clean
A better surface finish because abrasives and sanding machines can work more effectively
A safer environment for you and your family*
A safer working environment for your contractor*
Sanding dust can cause irritation and allergic reactions, especially for those with respiratory problems or asthma. After normal sanding, microscopic particles of dust can remain in the room days after the work has been finished.

"Delighted with my new pine wood floorboards! Ervis and his team were great from the moment I contact them to providing guidance throughout and the final execution. Lay new flooring, sand the old one and the new and lacquered everything in just 2 days!! I think the price was more than fair too!
