FAQs
Can I use this on previously finished floors?
No, the floor must be sanded back to raw wood for the oil to penetrate effectively.
How long until I can walk on the floor?
Light traffic is generally permitted after 8-12 hours, but it is recommended to wait 24 hours for full hardening.
Does it need a topcoat?
Bona Craft Oil 2K can be used alone, though it can be finished with Bona hard-wax oils for extra protection.
Is the grey colour permanent?
Yes, it is a penetrating pigment that dyes the wood fibers, offering a long-lasting aesthetic.
What tools do I need for application?
You will need a bucket for mixing, a trowel or applicator for spreading, and a floor buffer with appropriate pads for finishing.
Troubleshooting
Uneven colour patches
Ensure the floor was sanded consistently and that the oil was spread evenly without leaving 'puddles' on the surface.
Oil remains sticky or tacky
This usually indicates that excess oil was not properly buffed off the surface. Use a clean absorbent pad to remove residue.
Short pot life
Once mixed, the product must be used within its specified pot life. Do not mix more than you can apply within that timeframe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the floor is sanded to bare wood, clean, and free of dust, oils, or wax.
- Mixing: Add the hardener to the oil container at the manufacturer-specified ratio. Stir thoroughly before use.
- Application: Apply using a squeegee, trowel, or oil applicator. Allow the oil to penetrate for 15-30 minutes.
- Buffing: Remove all excess oil using a floor buffer with a dedicated oil-absorbing pad. The surface should feel dry to the touch when finished.
- Maintenance: Regularly sweep or vacuum the floor. Use Bona-branded floor cleaners designed for oiled surfaces to preserve the finish integrity.
