Overview

Overview

Back

Bona Traffic HD Raw is one of the world's toughest and fastest drying lacquers for wooden floors exposed to extreme wear, allowing full traffic to be resumed in just 24 hours. Widely used in hotels, restaurants and airports, where maximum durability and a short downtime is essential. It is also recommended for use in schools and nurseries due to its very low indoor emissions.

Preparation

Preparation

Back
Ensure the project area is well sanded, free of dust, debris and any oil or wax.

Bare Wooden Floors

For bare, freshly sanded floors it is recommended to use a wood primer. Primers help with adhesion between the varnish and floor and can help with the colouration of the final finish.

Product Use
Bona Classic UX Primer A ready-to-use primer for use with the Bona range of varnishes
Bona Natural Primer Designed to preserve the impression of raw, untreated wood
Bona Intense Primer A 100% polyurethane based primer for finishes requiring better adhesion
Bona White Primer A high quality wood primer that creates a 'white-washed' effect on wood flooring
Bona Amber Primer Wood primer for oak and darker tropical species of wood. GreenGuard approved

To stain the floor prior to finishing, consider Bona Craft Oil 2K.

Please note: Allow Bona traffic HD to reach room temperature before use.

Application

Application

Back

Always do a test area before starting any project to assess product suitability and final finish. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the container at all times. To mix smaller quantities of lacquer and hardener, mix the required amounts using the Bona Traffic Mix Bottle

Optimal application conditions are between 18-25° and 30-60% relative air humidity. High or low temperatures and humidity may shorten or lengthen the drying time. Minimum temperature for use is 13°.

Where a longer drying time is required due to high temperature and/or low humidity, Bona Retarder can be added to the varnish to increase the 'open time' of the product.

Mixing in the Hardener

  1. Add appropriate mix of hardener to the lacquer. If only using part of the 5 litres, then consider using the Bona Mix and Fill
  2. Immediately shake for a minimum of 1 minute
  3. Insert the enclosed filter ready for pouring
  4. The mixture of hardener and lacquer should be used directly or at least within 3 hours of mixing

Suitable Bona Applicators

Product Description
Bona Applicator Sleeve 46cm applicator sleeve that is used in conjunction with the Bona Swivel Head Applicator, a specialist floor applicator for professional floor finishers.
Bona Lacquer Roller A synthetic, medium pile roller for the application of Bona varnishes and used in conjunction with the Bona Roller Handle

Application Technique

  1. Apply the lacquer using a suitable Bona applicator, as seen above
  2. Apply with a smooth flowing action, avoiding build up
  3. Always maintain a "wet edge" to avoid any overlaps
  4. Allow 2 - 3 hours between sanding/denibbing or re-coating
  5. Slightly increase drying time after each coat
  6. Apply a further coat in the same manner
  7. If necessary, lightly sand or denib using a fine grade sandpaper before the final coat. This is needed if a previous coat has been allowed longer than 24 hours to dry

Take reasonable precautions with the finish during the first few days after application:

  • Do not cover (use protective sheets) or lay carpets onto the treated area during the first 7 days following application
  • Appropriate protective measures (i.e. felt pads) should be taken for table and chair legs or other objects which could mark the floor
  • Immediately wipe up any water or other liquid spillages and take particular care with flower pots

Floors treated with Bona Traffic HD Raw can be subjected to light foot traffic in 24 hours after final application and allow 7 days for the product to fully cure before laying carpets, rugs and moving furniture.

Regular Cleaning

Lacquered floors should be dry swept or vacuumed on a regular basis to remove surface particles of grit, dirt and small stones that could scratch or mark the surface. Wooden floors should never be saturated with water or cleaned with household detergents or cleaners, as part of a regular cleaning routine, as these could significantly reduce longevity and performance of the floor varnish.

For more thorough cleaning and to remove surface scuffs and other marks, Bona have a range of pH-balanced floor cleaners and mops for the job. For regular cleaning the pre-mixed, ready-to-go formulas provide a quick solution whilst the concentrated products are good for scale of economy and deeper cleaning requirements.

F.A.Q.

F.A.Q.

Back
With the Raw being a very flat matt, is there anything I can put on top to get a better sheen level?

Bona Traffic HD Raw has a very low, 4% sheen level. Bona have said that if you wanted a higher sheen level after using the Raw, you can lightly sand so it provides a key and go over it with Bona Traffic HD in Silk Matt. If you were looking for a high gloss solution, you could use the Bona Freshen Up

Easy to apply and leaves very natural look
Spoke to the sales team and they recommended this product alongside the natural primer for the most natural look, and it didn’t disappoint. Highly recommend this product for the natural wood look.

Excellent product
Together with Bona Natural Primer, this does an excellent job to achieve a "bare wood" floor look. It is rare that a product matches expectations, but this exceeded my expectations!
