Timber Floor Finishes from Sydney Flooring
Finishing Touches
The Long term good looks of your floor start with the right finish...
At Sydney Flooring we leave nothing to
chance. The long term good looks of
your floor will be further enhanced by
choosing the correct finishing method.
Being a "living" product, timber flooring
will expand and contract with varying
humidity conditions. This is a natural
phenomenon and it is important to
allow the boards to move freely. With
this in mind Sydney Flooring
recommend and use products which
will not cause edge bonding. (A term
which is used to describe the effect of
boards sticking together and not
allowing natural movement).
We advise
against the use of polyurethane
products because in some situations it
may cause edge bonding between
boards. Typically we finish the floor
using a traditional Tung oil based seal
which is environmentally friendly. Tung
oil seal is a combination of synthetic
resins, driers and oils which are
designed to penetrate deeply into the
pores of the timber itself. After the seal
has cured, typically 3-4 days, it is
advisable to apply a suitable floor
finish, usually an acrylic based mop-on
polish.
