Special characteristics: UV resistant (anti-yellowing), low-odour, easy application, highly resistant to scratches and most chemical maintenance products, complies with the VOC standards, safe to use, non-toxic and non-flammable, NMP-free. The combination of hardness and elasticity means that your floor will last a very long time and will be extremely resistant to wear and tear.

Surface preparation: The surface must be dry, thoroughly cleaned and free of grease, oil, wax and dust.

Product preparation: Stir DevoNatural Passage A and B at room temperature, preferably with an electric mixer. Slowly add the hardening agent B to component A, while continuously stirring the latter (1 part of hardening agent B to 10 parts component A). Continue to stir for 30 seconds after the solution is fully mixed. Then leave to rest for 5 - 10 minutes before use.

Application: Use a brush or varnish roller. Apply first in transversal direction in relation to the grain of the wood and then apply in the direction of the grain. Apply “wet on wet”, allowing the strokes to merge. On larger surfaces, it is advisable to work as a team, so that the wet strokes formed by the brush or roller merge into each other. Avoid direct draughts and direct exposure to sunlight in the area where the product is used. Apply 2 - 3 coats, depending on the desired wear resistance and protection. If 3 coats are applied, the first coat can be diluted with a maximum of 10% water.

Pot life: 2 hours.

Drying time: 2-4 hours.

Finish: After approx. 6 hours, roughen by hand or using a machine. Sand after the first coat, using a 120 grit sanding disc. Between the 2nd and 3rd coat, sand using a 220 grit sanding disc.

Dry enough to walk on: After 5 hours.

Full curing time: 7 days. Although the floor is dry enough to walk on after 5 hours, it is recommended that you allow it to rest while the product hardens. During this period, it is not advisable to lay a carpet or any other floor covering or allow the floor to be used heavily. During the first week, do not clean it using water or detergent.

Working temperature: When applying the mixed product, the temperature must not be lower than 13°C. For best results, use DevoNatural Passage at a temperature of approx. 20°C and a relative humidity of 50%.

Consumption: 8-10 m²/litre per coat, 2 - 3 coats, depending on use and the desired wear resistance.

Clean tools: Using water.
