Optima is a fast-drying, water-based floor finish that has been formulated to leave wood with a durable and resistant surface. The high solids leaves the surface with a rich and full appearance. The floor finish is easy to apply and has good resistance to water and chemicals, making it ideal for offices and other commercial areas with medium traffic. This indoor climate labeled water based finish is applied, and ensures a low odor indoor climate afterwards.
It is important that both wood and floor finish have a temperature of min. 59°F (preferably around 68°F) and air humidity of approx. 50%. Make sure that the room is well-ventilated for optimal evaporation and drying time. For the final sanding to bare wood, use grit 100-120 sandpaper or sanding pad. Vacuum thoroughly and tack the floor afterwards, using a tightly-wrung water-soaked mop/cloth. The floor must be completely dry before sealing or finishing. When sealing, use WOCA Sealers for newly sanded wood to reduce side bonding.
Sealer and a coat of Optima floor finish should be applied undiluted, using a brush or roller. Leave the surface to dry until next day.
Sand the surface with grit 120-200 and vacuum clean the surface thoroughly.
Apply the final coat of undiluted Optima floor finish.
The freshly-finished floor is suitable for cautious use after approx. 5 hours. Do not place furniture etc. on the floor until at least 24 hours after the final coat of floor finish. The floor will be ready for normal use after approx. 5-7 days, after which rugs etc. can be placed on the floor.
