If the wood floor has been previously oiled, waxed or polished, then the product would need to be completely removed by sanding back to bare wood or using a suitable&nbsp;\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/product-type\/removers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\nwood stripper<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is the advantage of a varnish?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Varnishes are tough, hard wearing and easily cleaned. Wood varnish is generally more durable than a wax or oil but is not as easy to maintain or repair if it becomes worn or damaged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Which is the most durable floor finish?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A varnish is the most hard-wearing finish to use for wood flooring. There are 2-part varnishes available which can be mixed with a hardener prior to application, allowing the two to dry together, thereby creating a much tougher and more durable surface finish.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/wordpress_-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/wordpress_-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/wordpress_-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/wordpress_-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/wordpress_-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/wordpress_-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/wordpress_-1-696x696.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/wordpress_-1-420x420.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to Apply&nbsp;\u2013 Manns&nbsp;Extra Tough Floor Varnish.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hi I\u2019m Jay from Wood Finishes Direct, and in this video, I&#8217;ll be giving you some top application tips and my favorite application technique for the Manns Extra Tough Floor Varnish. Preparation is key! So, if you haven&#8217;t already seen the before you buy video check that out now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Applicators<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For floors, the best way to apply the Manns Extra Tough Interior floor varnish is a&nbsp;two pronged&nbsp;approach, using a smaller brush to work the edges and either a&nbsp;microfibre&nbsp;roller or a floor finish applicator to finish open areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My&nbsp;preffered&nbsp;weapons of choice are the&nbsp;ProDec&nbsp;Premier Synthetic Brush&nbsp;2 inch&nbsp;to do edges and tricky areas and the&nbsp;Marshall&nbsp;microfiber&nbsp;roller 25cm&nbsp;to do the rest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Finish<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With our applicator selected we are ready to take the plunge.&nbsp;For the best protection, we recommend applying 1 coat of&nbsp;Manns Extra Tough Primer&nbsp;followed by 2 coats of Manns Extra Tough&nbsp;floor&nbsp;Varnish but for today&#8217;s video as we are showcasing the varnish, I will just be applying that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How I like to work, is I make sure I stick on some shoe covers and make sure there is no stones or grit in the tread on my&nbsp;my&nbsp;boots. Then thoroughly stir before and periodically during application for consistency of sheen, then pour enough varnish for the area into a skuttle or paint tray, then work around the edges with a brush applying thinly. Then once done&nbsp;youre&nbsp;ready to tackle the open area! Load your roller or chosen applicator then apply thinly, making sure you work in manageable and always working with the grain, and leave to dry being careful not to allow the varnish to pool and smoothing out any roller marks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your first coat has dried rub down the surface with a&nbsp;Woodleys&nbsp;Finishing Pad this helps smooth out the finish and aids adhesion of further coats, then apply your second and final coat of varnish, and you&#8217;re done. Easy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between coats, you can keep brushes and other applicators in airtight bag or container to prevent them drying out. And after application brushes and equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with warm water and wiped dry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<br>If you need any further technical advice or information about your project why don&#8217;t you give us a call or email and put us to the&nbsp;test&nbsp;we are the experts after all.
