PALL-X 2-KOLORIT APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARATION:
- Sand and prepare the wood floor in accordance to NWFA (National Wood Flooring Association) sanding guidelines. More information on these guidelines can be found at www.nwfa.org.
- It is recommended to water pop wood before applying PALL-X 2-KOLORIT. As soon as the floor is visibly dry, apply PALL-X 2-KOLORIT stain.
- Bring both containers (Comp A&B) to room temperature and stir well before use. Mix 5 parts Part A with 1 Part B (5:1 ratio) in a separate, clean, dry container. May also mix in original open mouth container. Stir thoroughly for 60 seconds to completely blend both parts. One bottle of hardener will activate one can of PALL-X 2-KOLORIT stain.
- Apply PALL-X 2-KOLORIT either by buffing, troweling on, or rag on/off.
BUFFER APPLICATION:
- See PREPARATION Instructions.
- With a gloved hand and a small red or white pad or carpet pad, work product into corners and edges.
- Pour a small amount of PALL-X 2-KOLORIT into the center of the buffing pad or carpet pad. Start approximately 2 feet from wall. Work PALL-X 2- KOLORIT into the floor ensuring that the entire floor is covered. Continue to add PALL-X 2-KOLORIT as needed to maintain proper coverage rate.
- Allow PALL-X 2-KOLORIT to penetrate for a minimum of 5 minutes but not more than 30 minutes following application.
- With a gloved hand and a small white pad or cloth rags, remove excess PALL-X 2-KOLORIT from corners and areas where buffer cannot reach.
- Remove excess PALL-X 2-KOLORIT with a white polishing pad or carpet pad under the buffer. When pad is saturated (leaves swirls or slings product), flip pad over and use reverse side or change to a new pad. Multiple pads will be required to remove excess PALL-X 2-KOLORIT.
- Buff floor again using a clean white polishing pad or carpet pad to ensure all excess is removed.
- See FINISH Instructions
TROWEL APPLICATION:
NOTE: If floor has beveled edges or is hand scraped, DO NOT trowel apply. The buffer application or rag on/off are the preferred methods.
- See PREPARATION Instructions.
- Pour a 6 – 8 inch pool of PALL-X 2-KOLORIT directly onto the floor. Using a flat, stainless steel trowel (Item #12506), apply PALL-X 2-KOLORIT across the floor. Add additional PALL-X 2-KOLORIT to the puddle as needed.
- Allow PALL-X 2-KOLORIT to penetrate for a minimum of 5 minutes but not more than 30 minutes following application.
- With a gloved hand and a small white pad or cloth rags, remove excess PALL-X 2-KOLORIT from corners and areas where buffer cannot reach.
- Remove excess PALL-X 2-KOLORIT with a white polishing pad or clean carpet pad under the buffer. When pad is saturated (leaves swirls or slings product), flip pad over and use reverse side or change to a new pad. Multiple pads will be required to remove excess PALL-X 2-KOLORIT.
- Buff floor again using a clean white polishing pad or carpet pad to ensure all excess is removed.
- See FINISH Instructions
Rag on/off Application:
Preferred method for stairs, landings, and harder to reach areas.
- See PREPARATION Instructions
- Using clean and dry cloth rags, saturate rag with PALL-X 2-KOLORIT and apply vigorously to raw wood.
- Allow to penetrate at least 5 minutes but no more than 30 minutes.
- Use clean and dry cloth rags to remove excess.
- Keep coverage rate around 300 – 500 square feet per liter.
- See FINISH Instructions
Finish:
- Maintain a coverage rate of approximately 300 – 500 square feet per liter with all application methods listed. Sanding sequence and wood species will affect coverage rates.
- Five hour dry/coating time with normal climate conditions of 65 – 75 °F and 50% RH. 12 hour dry/ coating time for white or pastel (containing white pigment). Cooler temperatures and higher moisture may delay dry/coating times. Warmer/dryer conditions may expedite drying time.
- PALL-X 2-KOLORIT is a stain and sealer in one application. Apply PALLMANN Finishes on top of PALL-X 2-KOLORIT. PALLMANN Sealers may be applied but not required. PALLMANN® Finish or sealer must be applied within 3 days (72 hours) of staining for adhesion. If after 3 days, apply PALLMANN® PALL-X BOND before applying PALLMANN® Finish.
NOTES:
- Apply to a small test area before proceeding with the entire job to ensure desired color. If desired, PALL-X 2-KOLORIT colors can be mixed to acheive a custom color. May apply a second coat of PALL-X 2-KOLORIT to darken or enrich color, a second application requires a 12 hour dry time before coating finish on top.
- Recommended Applicators: Flat-bladed flexible stainless steel trowel (item #12506), commercial floor buffer with 1” white/beige polishing pad, type of pads will depend on application method; non-pretreated stain resistant carpet pads; clean and dry rags or cloths.
- While buffing, work backwards out of the job area to insure that all footprints are removed.
- May apply a second coat of PALL-X 2-KOLORIT to darken or enrich color.
- Tools and applicators should be cleaned with PALLMANN® Clean Box wipes.
- PALL-X 2-KOLORIT (not hardened) can be used hours or days after initial opening. Opened containers should be securely recapped and stored in a cool location until reused. KEEP FROM FREEZING.
WARNINGS:
- DO NOT recap PALL-X 2-KOLORIT after hardener has been added as a vapor pressure explosion will occur.
- Sanding dust of oxygen-drying systems are a fire risk! After conclusion of sanding, the sanding dust must be soaked with water and disposed of in tightly sealed, air tight, fire proof containers!
- Contact of the product with pads or textile materials produces a risk of spontaneous combustion. Soak any cloths, pads, etc. with water and keep / dispose in tightly sealed, air tight, fire proof containers.
