APPLY FILLER
Select wood filler to match floor species. Be sure to remove all
dust, dirt, oil and wax from floor surface before applying Pro
Finisher wood filler. Pour a workable puddle of wood filler on the
floor. With a smooth edge finishing trowel, work filler back and
forth across the floor, being sure to have a good angle and
downward pressure on trowel. Just pushing filler across the floor
is not adequate. The filler must be worked down into the cracks
to ensure they are filled from bottom to top. Spot fill larger cracks
and holes with multiple layers.
FINAL SAND
Allow to dry thoroughly before final sanding. When complete
there should be a haze or film left on the surface of the wood.
Depending on the humidity, temperature and air movement, the
filler should dry in approximately 30 minutes. Large filled areas
will require additional dry time. When dry and all filled areas are
level with the surface of the wood, sand the floor to remove filler
from the surface of the wood. Remove all sanding dust and wipe
clean with a lint-free cloth.
CLEAN UP
Clean up application tools and equipment with soap and water.
STORAGE
Store the container in dry and cool environment. Keep container
sealed when not in use.
