Lobadur WS 2K Duo: 2-Component Water-Based Polyurethane Floor Finish
What is Lobadur WS 2K Duo?
Lobadur WS 2K Duo is a high-quality 2-component water-based polyurethane floor finish designed specifically for the protection of wooden floors, cork, linoleum, and PVC floor coverings. The finish is suitable for applications requiring particularly high durability, such as in dance halls, offices, and residential spaces. WS 2K Duo is elastic, offers excellent chemical and abrasion resistance, and is very low in emissions (EC1 R Plus certified). Available in matte, semi-matte, and extra matte finishes, this coating provides various options for a natural floor appearance.
How does Lobadur WS 2K Duo work?
Before use, the A-component of WS 2K Duo must be well shaken, then the hardener is added in a 10:1 ratio and thoroughly mixed. Once mixed, the finish is workable for 2 hours. The floor should be professionally sanded, dry, and free from old coatings, oil, grease, and dirt. The finish is applied with a roller, with the surface being sanded between coats for a more uniform result. Drying time varies from 4-6 hours for recoating to full curing after 5 days. The finish should not be diluted and should be applied at room temperatures of 15-25°C and relative humidity of 40-75%.
Benefits and Properties
Lobadur WS 2K Duo offers many benefits, such as high elasticity, excellent abrasion resistance, and strong resistance to chemicals. The finish is easy to apply, provides a streak-free and even surface, and is suitable for use on various substrates. With a low emissions class (EC1 R Plus), WS 2K Duo is environmentally friendly and safe for indoor use. The product is available in three gloss levels: matte, semi-matte, and extra matte, providing flexibility for different aesthetic preferences and applications.
Application Instructions
For optimal results, the substrate should be well prepared by professional sanding, and the wood moisture should be kept below 12%. Shake the A-component and add the hardener in the correct ratio (10:1). Mix thoroughly before use and apply the finish with a suitable roller. Avoid pouring the finish directly onto the floor; use a paint bucket instead. For a uniform result, intermediate sanding can be done after 8-10 hours. Ensure adequate ventilation during application and drying of the finish.
Maintenance or Advice
Lobadur WS 2K Duo should be stored dry and cool and has a shelf life of 12 months. Avoid exposure to frost during transport and storage. Tools should be cleaned with water immediately after use. To achieve full hardness, do not wet-clean the floor or place rugs on it. If the floor is heavily used, LOBATOOL Cover 400 can be applied for quicker surface protection. Always refer to the technical documentation for specific instructions and recommendations for use.
