It is important to check with the stain manufacturer first, since most stains we use need to be wiped dry after use within a few minutes. Be sure not to apply too much stain if you decide to do this. However, apart from that you will be fine. Oil-based poly can be applied as well, but you might want to cover it with lambswool. In most cases, we apply water-based poly on the durafoam covers.

The tool is excellent
5/5

If you want a clear poly coat made from water, this is your best option. When dealing with all the risks and effort in a flooring job, you need the right tools. Every time you apply a new coat, you can clean and dry the foam. It is not necessary to purchase.

With polyurethane, this is the best tool to refinish floors! Polyurethane has been used to seal floors several times with brushes and rollers
5/5

This is a much quicker process with a much more impressive result! However, I took a big chance on one room since I poured the oil on too thick and didn't stir it. As I went along, I made better progress on polygons, but next time I did I also added an LED headlight to my floor halogen near the start of the pouring and spreading process so that I could better visualize where I was at throughout the process. So you can quickly recoat the piece before it dries, so that you can see any defects more clearly. The downside is that I couldn't figure out how to save the pad after the last coat of finishing instead I simply put it in a plastic bag with a good seal betweencoats. As a result, the mineral spirits wouldn't get rid of it so I simply budget in a new pad for each finish. Despite the price, it's still worth it since the quality is so much better and the speed is so much faster!.

This isn't a lightweight per se, but it is the Several reviews indicated the device was lightweight, but I was incorrect thus, I thought I would write
5/5



I would consider aluminum lightweight There is a greater thickness of stainless steel in this. For it to glide smoothly along the floor, it needs to have some weight. Feathering up stroke ends isn't a problem since it's light. Compared to a solid bar, or a push broom, it is lighter. 3) Add polymer to In fact, I think it came out even better than the pro finish I covered because I took care around the edges, shut off the HVAC system, and used super-high quality paint So I used a Bona Semi-gloss paint and sanded it between coats, and there are hardly any imperfections A glossy finish is used. [I chose this over the Bona plastic applicator because of its price and durability. The Bona products for chem are the best, but the Bona tools are ok in many situations.

I like your shirt a lot A few months ago, when I developed some pretty bad allergies, I decided to try out Bona Mega on the hardwood floors I found under some gold, ugly, stained carpet in the bedroom of my old house in the country
5/5

A very good job was done applying the finish to the bar. I found that lifting weights off of the bar was the only thing that was hard. I am certain that if I had been young and stronger, we wouldn't have dealt with this issue. Using lit gave me nice results. After I used it, I cleaned it up nicely with soap and water. This now makes it ready for any use I need to put it to. A recommendation for this product would be appreciated.

A large area is best for this product
4/5

This was used to oil a total of 1100 square feet It is a polyurethane-based polymer. The game had a bit of a lag at times, but it was manageable. Although both cooks were finished fairly quickly, we had to wait about 15 minutes. It smooths out the service nicely, thanks to the weight. Although I prefer lamb's wool, this is a good option for jobs that need more coverage. Don't forget to make sure the coat is straight You want it to be thin enough to not cause clouds.

This is a quick and easy process
5/5

This tool allowed me to poly both my dining room and living room. Pouring poly on and spreading it out on the floor proved to be the most challenging. I was able to finish the entire room in under five minutes once I got the hang of it. The first thing I did was to cut all around the perimeter, and then I overlapped back and forth. It is important to clean your head before applying so that you do not leave streaks on areas you have already worked on. Plan accordingly if you pour out too much or it will be a bit messy at the end. Cleaning is easy and the material holds up well. Despite my needs for a second brush head, I did not have to order one.

The hardwood floor has been top coated with polyurethane
5/5

On a hardwood floor, I used this tool to put on a polyurethane top coat. In my experience, this is the most effective way of creating videos on YouTube. My results were excellent. Couple it with a watering can to pour out the poly and I was able to cover 600 square feet. It takes me about 2 hours to do this. An experienced person would probably do it in A must-have tool. I highly recommend it.

4/5

A 9" lambs wool pad has been used several times at my church to refinish the gym floor It took a few rows to become comfortable with the applicator, but it made the traditionally time-consuming task significantly more efficient. It was nice to be able to tilt the applicator and place a nice bead of polyurethane across an entire length, and to be able to apply a consistent layer with a slight overlap of the previous row.
