Overview

Bona Natural Primer can be used for a range of interior projects where preserving the natural, raw or untreated look of the wood is desired. Although primarily designed for use with wooden flooring, this product can also be used for priming wooden doors, furniture and more.

Need an alternative type of primer for a different effect or for troublesome floor types? Consider one of the following Bona primers:

Product Use Bona Classic Primer A non-yellowing, clear primer for use with the Bona range of varnishes 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.

Preparation

Ensure wooden surfaces to be treated are clean, dry and free from dust, dirt, grit and any other surface contaminants prior to application of Bona Natural Primer.

For the best results, surfaces to be treated must be sanded back to bare wood
Remove all traces of sanding dust with a vacuum cleaner prior to priming
For filling gaps between floor boards and skirting boards, use Bona Gap Master
For filing holes, splits, dents and other surface imperfections, use Bona Mix and Fill or Bona Mix and Fill Plus

Application

Always do a test area before starting any project to assess product suitability and final finish. Follow manufacturer's instructions on the container at all times.

Allow product to reach room temperature. Optimal application conditions are between 18-25°C and 30-60% relative air humidity. High and low humidity and temperatures can shorten or lengthen drying times. Minimum temperature for use is 13°C.

Shake container well before use and insert the supplied filter
If required, pour the primer through a sieve
Apply the primer evenly, using a microfibre / fleece roller or Bona Swivel Head Applicator, avoiding accumulation of product
Allow to dry for approx. 2-3 hours and then lightly sand or denib using a sanding screen (grit 150 or finer) or the Bona Scrad system to reduce grain raise
Remove all loose sanding dust

Brilliant service

I was pleased to discover these “samples”. I treated a teak floor a few years years back with the Bona Traffic HD system. I needed to refurbish a couple of areas. I could purchase the top coat in 1 litre containers but not the primer. I couldn’t justify 5 litres when I only needed at most 200ml. The Classic UX darkened the wood too much. Thanks for providing these samples!

Great sealer, easy to use

Great sealer for my wood floors. Barely changed the colour of the sanded wood but formed a great base for the top coat of lacquer

Product really does what it says on the tin!

Excellent product - goes on really smoothly and without issue We applied Bona primer, once dried put two coats of Bona Traffic HD on -floor looks lovely and natural in colour

Brilliant product

Odor free, went on like a dream. Left floors (beech wood) beautifully pale with no shine. Went a very long way.

Perfect for natural look

Maintains the natural look of wooden floors, helps even out the shades slightly. Helps maintain a very light colour, which is what I was after. Dries quickly so make sure you apply fast. Works with a normal paint rol applicator. Brushes can be easily washed with water.

Great product

Great base for the Bona Traffic HD

Easy to apply

Easy to apply and loads of info on packaging and website to show you how to use it.

Easy to apply and keeps natural look

Easy to use product and keeps the wood looking natural as possible.

Used with Bona Traffic HD Raw

This was the recommended primer to use with Bona Traffic HD Raw, and together they achieved a first class result.

Easy to apply

Very easy to apply, dried quickly ready for the varnish coat. Very pleased with the result.

Great Product That Lasts

I have used Bono Products for many years and can honestly say they are the best on the market, in my opinion. The primer is no exception. It covers well, regardless of the application method, straight from the contain

Great primer

One of the best primers, easy to apply, no streaks

Great primer

Smooth finish. It requires just some light sanding before applying the lacquer

100ml of Bona is enough to give you an idea of the finish you want to achieve unlike the tiny sam...

Very easy to apply and seems to be quite hard wearing. I recommend it.

Works well with the Bona Mega Natural

Goes on easily and provides a good base coat.

Fantastic Natural Primer

What an amazing product! We sanded our oak floors and used the primer to keep the oak looking as natural as possible and it has certainly done that. If we had applied varnish straight to floor it would have darkened and turned the oak orangey but this primer stops that from happening. We used 2 coats of primer followed by 2 coats of Bona Traffic HD satin and our floors are beautiful, transformed from orange looking oak to natural looking oak and very hard wearing. We used 2 coats of the primer on our internal oak doors without top coat and the finish is natural. Very easy to apply we just used a roller and a brush for around the edges. Love Bona products worth the extra spend.

not for me

I have used a few times but you do need to make sure you keep a wet edge and don't overlap it otherwise you will see it

Perfect base for Bona Silk Matt

Very pleased with result on Ameracan ash timber

Product is exactly as described, very natural feel once dry.

Leaves the wood with a very natural feel while offering protection. Used on Douglas Fir exposed trusses.

Fantastic way to check what you really need to achieve desired finish

Easy to brush on, amazing coverage, follow instruction for an excellent finish with absolute minimum of colour change to original material. Just what I wanted. No point in selecting flooring to a specific colour and feel and then changing it with oil or varnish.

very useful to have these small samples

Customer liked. this , I find bona products too expensive

Does what it says in the TDS

Did exactly what I wanted. Did not colour my teak floor at all.

Good base

Great base for the Mega Natural. Floor looks lovely and reduces the porosity of the parquet significantly.

absolutely fantastic --

Prevents the wood going 'orangey' -- and brings out the natural tones of the wood. We then used the Bona Traffic -- 3 coats-- and it looks fabulous. We've used this on both a light natural ash floor and a light oak, with stunning results for both.

Good product.

Used on all the doors in the house. It is liquid so goes on very easily. Gives a non shine look which is what we wanted. Keeps the original colour of the door. Just got off any marks with some wire wool and gave 2 coats. Sealed the doors from further marks and looks really good.
