Application

Apply using a steel trowel, felt trowel, lacquer brush or lacquer roller.

Sand the wooden surface properly, finish with sandpaper no100 or finer. Fill the gaps with Teknos GAP Parquet putty during the intersanding process. After finishing sanding, apply a coat of Teknos Forme primer with a stainless steel trowel, felt trowel, lacquer brush or roller.

Steel trowel application: Apply 3–4 coats. If needed, intersand between coats with, for example, abrasive net or sandpaper grit 120.

Felt trowel, lacquer roller or brush application: Apply one coat. Intersand between coats with, for example, abrasive net or sandpaper grit 120. If needed, apply another coat with a steel trowel.

After priming, finish with Teknos water-based parquet lacquer. Water-borne primers may cause slight swelling of the wooden surface. If an absolutely smooth surface is desired, sand the surface lightly after the first lacquer coat. Ensure that the primer has fully dried before applying the top lacquer.
