Wait until completely dry (about an hour) and then apply a second coat in the opposite direction to the first (i.e. horizontal if previously applied vertically or vice-versa). The floor can be walked on after one hour. For a greater sheen, buff with a floor polisher or a wool cloth. If treating terracotta and highly absorbent natural stone (limestone, sandstone, old quarries, rough quartzite), we recommend a base coat of a water-proofing product such as FOB EXTREME or W68.

For maintenance:

Restoring finish (every 2-3 months): after cleaning the surface with a diluted solution of CLEANER PRO (1:200), apply MATT diluting 500ml of product in 5 litres of water. The floor can be walked on once it is dry. Restoring protection (once a year): apply slightly diluted wax (200 ml of water per litre of product) using a fleece pad, cloth or other applicator. The floor can be walked on once it is dry.

For anti-flaking treatment:

Apply an even coat of undiluted MATT to the dry floor using a paintbrush. The treated surface will be dry after approximately one hour.
