Liberon High Resistance Floor Varnish

Liberon High Resistance Floor Varnish provides exceptional protection for wood floors and a high resistance to foot traffic. It is particularly well suited to areas that are in constant use, such as hallways, dining rooms, lounges and stairs.

Please Note: This product may raise the grain on some hardwoods and may darken some types of timber.

The Wax Effect is Light Oak in tone and does give more of a waxed look than a varnished look to the floor and this can result in a high shine finish.

*While this product is resistant to most types of heel impact once dry, in regard to Stilettos on the varnish, if the wood underneath the varnish is soft then they may leave a nail head type mark to that.

• To retain the natural, unfinished appearance of wooden floors, consider Liberon Natural Finish Floor Varnish

Floors to be varnished must be clean, dry and free from dust, dirt or any other surface contaminants prior to varnishing.

1. All previous finishes must be removed and the surface stripped back to bare wood by sanding
2. Fill any gaps or imperfections with Liberon Wood Filler or other suitable floor filler
3. Floors should be sanded properly and evenly
4. Floors can be sealed with Liberon Floor Sealer prior to varnishing, if required
5. If desired, floors can be stained prior to varnishing with Liberon Palette Wood Dye or other suitable wood stain

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

Ideal application conditions are between 12°C and 25°C. Ensure good ventilation during application and drying.

1. Stir the contents of the tin thoroughly before and periodically during use
2. Apply the floor varnish evenly with a brush or a short-hair roller
3. Apply the varnish plank by plank, while facing the sunlight
4. Start in the corner of the room and work back towards the door
5. Allow 6 hours between coats, lightly sanding between coats, if required
6. Liberon recommend that a minimum of 3 coats are applied
7. More coats can be applied for a more durable finish or where foot traffic is particularly heavy
8. Allow the final coat of varnish a minimum of 24 hours drying time before using the floor
