Arboritec™ Classic+ 1-component Ceramic Fortified Waterborne Lacquer is a 1-component waterborne 100% PU finish for wood and parquet floors in heavy traffic areas. The finish is fortified with ceramics thanks to our unique Small Particles Technology. By adding ceramic particles, our waterborne primers dry hard and become very easy to sand. Classic+ is exceptionally durable to scratches, heel marks and ordinary household chemicals. Adding ceramic particles results 30% less petro- chemical raw materials used hence makes Classic+ up to 30% more environmentally friendly than competitive brand lacquers.

Direction For Use

The surface has to be sanded to a professional standard, dry and free from contamination. Protect the floor from direct sunlight and keep off all underfloor heating from day before application till 24 hours after application. Final sanding of the floor should be done with sanding paper 120 grit belt or 100 grit screen. The temperature of the floor, Classic+ finish and air must be between 13°C (55°F) and 25°C (77°F). Relative humidity of the room should be between 40% and 60%. Higher humidity of room extends drying time of finish thus waiting time between layers. At high temperatures and low relative humidity add 2% Arboritec “Extender”. Shake the container before use for 30-60 seconds. Allow it to rest for 2-3 minutes before applying. Do not dilute the finish.

NOTE: Make sure solvent-based stains and sealers- if used to enhance color of wood- are fully cured prior to over-coating with Classic+.

Application

Application of the finish should be carried out along the direction of parquet strips and wood. If possible, prevent applying the finish cross the direction of daylight. Windows/doors must be closed to prevent air flow and ventilation should be shut down for the time of application. If possible prevent direct sunshine on the floor during coating. Classic+ is suitable for application with a lightweight t-bar applicator, roller or brush. Always test the product on a smaller area to ensure color and adhesion. For best results on bare, unstained wood floor, always use Classic+ finish with Arboritec primers: First Coat or Vibrant, following label instructions. Recommended method of application with a 10mm roller: 3 layers of Classic+ or 2 layers of Classic+ on a sealer (Arboritec First Coat). Apply sufficient amount of product in order to ensure good leveling of roller/ applicator marks. Sanding between layers is always possible.
