Bona Certified Contractors, Timbered Flooring, recently chose Bona products for the installation and finishing of a 20mm engineered, dark fumed oak parquet floor at a new London hotel.
Various Bona products were chosen for the project, including the Bona D501 primer which was applied to the WBP plywood subfloor, the Bona R848 silane adhesive which stuck the parquet blocks down, and Bona Craft Oil 2K (Frost) to finish off the pre-wirebrushed blocks. Finally, two coats of Bona Traffic HD (silk matt) lacquer was then applied to provide the hard wearing surface required at the Assembly London hotel.
Timbered Flooring specifically chose Bona because of its fast curing products which enabled the Timbered team to work within a tight timetable. Timbered Flooring’s Laurence Warburton explained, “We also provided a maintenance specification to the client which included regular cleaning with Bona Cleaner and an annual rebuffing and resealing with Traffic HD. Following a maintenance regime like this means the floor will always look good and the expense and downtime caused by sanding it back to bare wood will be avoided.”
Bona Craft Oil 2K is available in a range of 11 standard colours as well as custom shades which can be mixed on request. Already a hard wearing finishing treatment when used on its own, the oil can also be overcoated with any version of Bona Traffic to provide ultimate durability.
The Assembly London hotel was officially opened in May 2018 – you can find out more and explore the hotel here.
