BIO ANTIQUE WAX & BIO HARD FLOOR WAX

<<BACK TO PRODUCT LIST

PROTECTION

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 and other surfaces should be well sanded, dry and cleaned of greasy, waxy and dirty contaminants using BIO Thinner. Prime, if necessary with Bio Priming Oil or Bio Teak Oil. Hardwoods and other timbers rich in natural oils, waxes, acids and terpenes should be degreased using Bio Thinner because these substances may mix with the oils and waxes and prolong their 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

After 4 weeks, when the wax is fully cured, the surface may be treated with undiluted self-polishing BIO Timber Care Polish. Apply thinly and evenly with an absorbent lint free cloth. For regular cleaning wipe treated surfaces with a cloth moistened with Bio Natural Cleaning Emulsion diluted at the rate 50ml in 5 litres of warm water. Make sure that no moisture is allowed to remain on the waxed surfaces because it will cause staining.
