Products Used in Our Floor Sanding and Installation Services
During our years of experience, we have established a range of professional wood floor installation and restoration products, which we recommend for use in our floor sanding and wood floor fitting services. Please find below more information and specifications about the products and equipment we utilise, including their Safety Data Sheets.
Bona Mega
Bona Mega Varnish is a one-component, waterborne, 100% polyurethane finish for the surface treatment of timber floors in commercial and domestic areas subject to heavy wear. As crosslinking is achieved using oxygen in the air, Mega has the performance of a two-component finish without requiring a separate catalyst. It has all the advantages of a waterborne system, but still gives a deep, rich colouration similar to a solvent-based finish.
Bona Mega comes in extra-matt, matt, satin and gloss sheens.
Bona Traffic HD
Bona Traffic HD Varnish is a two-component, waterborne, 100% polyurethane finish for the surface treatment of timber floors in commercial premises or wherever a high resistance to wear is required. It is also suitable for overcoating compatible factory pre-finished timber and cork floors. Traffic provides a clear, natural appearance, giving almost invisible protection when the IP (Matt) version is used. However, unlike oil, it offers a simple level of maintenance. Traffic is Bona's most hard-wearing lacquer. Available in IP (Matt) or Silkmatt versions. Where there is a risk of side bonding, Bona Prime Classic is recommended for the initial coat on bare wood.
Bona Traffic comes in extra-matt, matt and satin sheens.
Bona Classic Primer
Bona Classic Primer is a primer for light wood colouration which produces a high-elasticity and well-bodied surface, thanks to its solid content. With a low viscosity and forgiving application properties, it's suitable for all types of wood. This is a single-component primer for water-based Bona lacquers, serving to increase bonding time while reducing the drying time of Bona Mega, Bona Traffic and Bona Novia.
Bona D501
Bona D501 is a one-component primer, used to prepare the substrates before to the use of silane-based Bona adhesives - such as Bona R844, R845, R850/850T, R860 and R870. It's suitable for both absorbent and non-absorbent substrates (without magnesium industrial floors), as well as chipboards and panels. It's ready to use, solvent-free, fast-drying and it's suitable for all Bona silane-based adhesives.
Bona Prime Amberseal
A truly innovative waterborne primer, the new Bona Prime Amberseal brings intense, rich, and warm colours to your wooden floors. With a low VOC and fast drying time, it's a natural and safe alternative for all of your furniture.
Bona Prime Deep
Bona Prime Deep is an oil-based primer designed to produce an enriched grain pattern and colour, previously only possible by using a product with a high solvent content. This Bona product is easy to apply, there's no risk of overlapping, and it contains less than 10% VOC. It provides the wood with the same colour and depth as the old, traditional solvent-based finishes. This product is designed to be used with Bona's waterborne finish system.
Bona Prime Intense
Bona Prime Intense is a waterborne primer for untreated wooden floors, producing a medium to rich wood colouration. The risk of uneven colouration is reduced to a minimum, while the product retains its strength and remains easy to abrade, thus bringing out the beauty in your wooden floor.
Bona Mega & Traffic Natural
Bona Mega Natural - A one-component lacquer that makes the floor look and feel like pure, untreated wood but, at the same time, seals and protects the surface. Offers superior protection for floors and other medium-wear areas. Produces a subtle rich tone which is more noticeable on light wood species and floors treated with light stains or whitening primers. Overcoating Bona White primer or Bona Natural primer with Bona Mega Natural is not recommended if you are looking to achieve a true white/natural look.
Bona Traffic Natural - delivers superior protection for floors in commercial and other busy areas yet preserves the look and feel of pure, untreated wood. To get the most natural-looking surface, combine Bona Traffic Natural with Bona Natural primer. Bona Traffic Natural is based on the unique Traffic formula which is your guarantee for long-term durability and reliable results.
Junckers MT500 Floor Lacquer
Junckers MT500 is the name of the water-based, low-odour polyurethane lacquer with a hard-wearing quality, which the world leader of commercial wooden flooring Junckers has chosen for their single-component floor sealant. This extremely durable product we will apply followed by a priming coat with Junckers WB Primer.
Junckers MT500 comes in matt, satin and gloss sheens. 
Junckers SB Primer
Junckers SB Primer offers a fast-drying solution, serving as a solvent-based primer specifically designed for wooden floors in commercial, residential, or sports settings. Ideal for situations where water-based primers face challenges with adhesion, especially on exotic and oily timbers, SB Primer stands out. Additionally, it is highly recommended for rejuvenating dark-coloured and patterned floors.
For optimal results, apply SB Primer directly onto bare wood to enhance the floor's colour depth. Following priming, ensure protective coats are applied using one of Junckers' water-based or oil-based floor lacquers.
Junckers WB Primer
Quick-drying and water-based, this primer is designed for untreated or machine-sanded wooden floors in commercial, residential, or sports environments. The application of this primer minimises the risk of side-bonding between individual floorboards.
Following priming, it's essential to apply protective coats using one of Junckers' water-based floor lacquers. Opt for Junckers WB Primer Clear to maintain a traditional appearance or select WB Primer Colour to infuse the room with a lighter or darker ambiance.
The coloured primer adds subtle transparency, highlighting the natural grain structure of the wood.
Junckers HT700
Junckers HT700 is a low-odour, hard-wearing water-based polyurethane lacquer for sealing prefinished or untreated wooden floors with intended commercial use. Two coats of the product will be applied after 1 coat of Junckers WB Primer.
FlooringFirst also offers Junckers Friction Floor Lacquer, which is the slip-resistant version of Junckers HT700 lacquer.
Junckers HT700 comes in ultra-matt, satin and gloss sheens.

Bona R850 & R848 Wood Floor Adhesive
R850 is an elastic single-component silane-based adhesive for parquet floor fitting. The hardened adhesive is similar to conventional adhesives - able to withhold thrust during expansion, while the resistance against shrinkage is very low. Tensions to the subfloor are therefore reduced. The use of a primer is in general not necessary. The adhesive hardens by a chemical reaction with moisture.
Bona R580 Moisture Barrier
Unique, single coat, fast setting, silane-based moisture barrier. Water and solvent-free, Bona R580 is designed to treat damp subfloors before to the installation of wood flooring using Bona silane-based adhesives. Bona R580 can be used as a two-component system with water to gain an even shorter setting time.
Bona R580 is also compatible with Bona H650 levelling compound. Quartz sand must be broadcast into wet Bona R580 before the application of the levelling compound.
Bona R580 is fully compatible with Bona adhesives R850, R845 and R860 which can be applied directly to the moisture barrier.
Jenkins & Blanchon Resin Joint Fillers
Jenkins Resin Wood Floor Filler is a quality compound which is used mixed with the dust collected during the finer floor sanding stages of the wood floor sanding & restoration process. The wood dust is mixed with the filler and applied to the gaps, cracks and scratches of the floor. The wood filler hardens quickly becoming a solid matter, which will require re-sanding of the floors again. In most cases, the procedure has to be repeated two or three times.
An important step in wood floor gap filling, especially when working with pine floorboards, is fixing the floors before the gap filling. Please note, most companies will not guarantee the durability of the gap-filling, as sometimes the solidness of the floor depends on the subfloor base.
