Aqua – the alternative

Instead of the oil primer, you can also use the mild-scented, water-based Aqua Hard primer for floors No. 127.  The result is the same as with PurSolid oil, but the colour tone is more natural.

The primer is applied evenly to the sanded surface with a roller. Allow 24 hours for drying. This is followed by intermediate sanding with the single-disc machine (grain 120 – 150).

A Special primer No. 117 is available for woods rich in content such as oak, cherry and chestnut. It is spread smooth with the machine and a polishing pad.


With the Aqua system, subsequent treatment with Floor wax No. 187 is necessary. Apply in a thin layer and do not polish until you have waited at least 20 minutes and at most one hour using the polishing pad on the single-disc machine.

A further wax application will increase the gloss. The surface can be used after 24 hours and final hardness is reached after about 2 weeks.
