Extra Tough Varnish FAQ
What is the advantage of a varnish?
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.
Which is the most durable floor finish?
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.
Can I apply a varnish to my wood without sanding it back to bare wood?
If your wood has been previously varnished, carry out a test area to ensure adhesion and compatibility and then lightly sand to create a key. If the wood 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 wood stripper.
