Waxes

Dilution: Either undiluted or diluted according to requirements.

Protects surfaces in marble and stone agglomerates and stone with polished finish:

Existing floors: apply undiluted wax with a damp cloth or other applicator. Let it dry well (about 1 hour), then buff with a wool cloth or floor polisher.

New floors: dilute 1 litre of product in 1-2 litres of water and apply, proceeding as described above.

For finishing the treatment with the application of a water/solvent-based protectors (terracotta and natural stone):

After the application of water-proofing (e.g. Fila W68 or Fila Fob), spread Fila Classic undiluted using a fleece pad or other suitable applicator. Let it dry well (about 1 hour), then buff with a wool cloth or floor polisher.

For traditional treatment with paste wax on terracotta:

Apply the undiluted product with a flat paintbrush. After 4 hours, apply two coats of paste wax Naturwax. Wait 8 hours, polish and then complete the treatment with a last coat of Fila Classic undiluted wax with a cloth, fleece pad or other applicator. Let it dry well (about 1 hour), then buff with a wool cloth or floor polisher.

For maintenance:

Restoring sheen (every 2-3 months): after cleaning the surface with a diluted solution of Fila Cleaner (1:200), apply Fila Classic diluting 500ml of product in 5 litres of water. Buff the surface when it is dry (after about 1 hour). Renewing protection (once a year): apply undiluted wax with a cloth, fleece pad or other applicator. Buff the surface when it is dry (after about 1 hour).

For protecting surfaces:

Apply a coat of product evenly and continuously to a clean dry floor, using a fleece pad, cloth or other applicator. Wait 1 hour. Then apply a second coat at right angles to the first. When dry, the floor will shine without requiring polishing. If treating highly absorbent natural stone (limestone, sandstone, terracotta), we recommend a base coat of Fila Fob or Fila W68. Wait 24 hours before applying Fila Long Life.

For maintenance:

Restoring sheen (every 2-3 months): after cleaning the surface with a diluted solution of Fila Cleaner (1:200), apply Fila Long Life diluting 500ml of product in 5 litres of water. The floor can be walked on once it is dry. Restoring protection (once a year): remove wax from the surface using Fila PS87 detergent diluted 1:5. Rinse. Apply Fila Long Life to the dry and clean floor undiluted, using a fleece pad or other applicator. The floor can be walked on once it is dry.

Please note: Do not walk on floor while it’s drying and do not repeat application on treated areas which are not yet dry. To remove this wax, use the specific wax remover Fila PS87. The use of Fila Long Life on rustic ground terracotta should be assessed each time depending on the characteristics of the terracotta. Not recommended for use on outdoor surfaces or in damp environments and where water remains (bathrooms, showers).

For the protection of floors and bare walls:

Dilute MATT slightly to make it more fluid and easier to apply, by adding 200ml of water per litre of product. On a clean and dry surface, apply one even coat of MATT using fleece (wall brush). 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.
