Product Description
Polyurethane Floor Varnish Colours is a polyurethane based varnish for interior wood floors. It protects the floor form the wear and damage caused by everyday use, such as scratches, scuffs and spills. The floor varnish also provides a decorative finish to the floor with a translucent coloured finish, with colours including light oak, dark oak and antique pine.
With the range of wood colours we have available, you can match to your existing floor colour, or change the look of the wood without having to replace the flooring. This varnish is an ideal choice for revitalising tired floors with a gloss finish and a colour.
In addition to the 13 standard wood floor varnish colours we offer on this page, we are able to produce this varnish in many other colours, including blues, greens and purples. If you would like more information about these colours, please contact us.
At Palatine Paints, we manufacture our own range of paints and varnishes instead of sourcing them from an external supplier. This means we have complete knowledge of our products and can answer any questions you may have.
If you have any queries regarding surfaces, previous coatings, application or anything else, please get in touch with our team. We are available on our web chat service or by phone during our opening hours, and can also be contacted by email with any questions you may have.
If you’re looking for a clear finish floor varnish, please see our Polyurethane Floor Varnish Clear. For a solid colour wooden floor paint, we also have a floor paint for wood, available in a range of different colours, as well as an anti-slip option.
Please note: The colours on the product listings are only given as a guide. This is due to the fact that every computer monitor has a different capability to display colours. In addition, everyone sees these colours differently.
Preparation:
On previously painted surfaces, ensure it is sound and non-flaking. Abrade the surface preferably by mechanical abrasion to provide a “key” and maximise adhesion of the subsequent coating.
Application:
Best results are obtained in warm (minimum 10°C), dry conditions.
Stir the paint with a drill stirrer or wooden baton at least 2” wide. Continue to stir during application.
Apply by brush or roller and work well into the surface. Use a paint brush for cutting in. Avoid applying the paint too thickly to avoid delaying drying times. The second coat can be applied as soon as the first coat is dry after 12-24 hours, and should be applied within 5 days. If more than 5 days elapse, the first coat should be lightly abraded before the second coat is applied. Avoid washing the surface for 7 days.
Recommended 2 to 3 coats.
Thinning and Cleaning: Use Palatine White Spirit.
If using more than one batch of the same colour, intermix before use
Surface Preparation
Proper surface preparation is essential for the success of any protective coating system. Before you begin ensure the area is free from any dust, oil, grease, old coatings and surface contaminants.
The preparation of steelwork prior to painting generally falls into two main areas; that of degreasing and the removal of rust and scale.
All surfaces to be painted should be clean, dry and free from loose and flaking material, dust, grease and millscale, etc.
Prime bare surfaces with Palatine Anti-Corrosive Metal Primer or Palatine All Purpose Primer / Undercoat in accordance with our recommendations
For non-ferrous metals use Palatine Fast Dry etching primer.
Rub down previously gloss painted surfaces with fine waterproof abrasive paper and rinse thoroughly.
Mixing
Stir the paint with a drill stirrer or wooden baton at least 2” wide. Continue to stir during application.
Application
Best results are obtained in warm (minimum 10°C), dry conditions.
Mix thoroughly for approximately 2 minutes using a drill stirrer. A wooden batten at least 25mm wide is also ideal.
Apply an even coat using a brush, short to medium pile roller on smooth surfaces and a long pile roller on textured surfaces
For spray application by either airless or conventional spray a dilution ration of no more than 10% is recommended with Palatine White Spirit by volume applying thin coats allowing each one to dry before applying subsequent coats.
Once dried, a second coat can be applied at full strength. This will prolong the life and performance of the coating.
Thinning and Cleaning: Use Palatine White Spirit.
If using more than one batch of the same colour, intermix before use
Preceding Coat
Prime bare surfaces with Palatine Anti-Corrosive Metal Primer or Palatine All Purpose Primer / Undercoat in accordance with our recommendations
