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.
