Bona Traffic HD Commercial Extra Matte

We had a great experience purchasing Bona Traffic HD. The products shipped very quickly and arrived well-packaged. Unfortunately, one of the containers had a crack in the seal, but customer service was incredibly fast to respond and immediately issued a refund with no hassle. We are extremely happy with how the sealer turned out.. it looks beautiful and applied smoothly. We’re really looking forward to applying the finish next. Overall, excellent product quality and outstanding customer service. Highly recommend!

I used this to finish and protect my walnut dining room table that I built. This stuff is great! Easy to mix, work with and has no smell at all so I could do it in the house. First coat went on nice, knocked down any grain or dust with 400 and added a final coat to finish it off. Smooth as glass and looks beautiful.

I heard all the reviews and recommendations for this product, and followed them. I followed the instructions to a T. I covered 15 stair treads with 3 coats with about half the gallon. Wish it was sold in smaller amounts. Goes on like water (watch for puddling or drips), covers great, doesn’t distort the color of the wood, no yellowing at all…just what I wanted! The 2 part process was a little more difficult than any other sealers I’d ever used, but the result came out beautifully! It has now withstood 3 wild kids and 2 crazy dogs racing up and down the stairs for 2 months- absolutely no sign of wear!

Extremely durable finish. The application process is very precise so read the directions and buy the correct tools.

Don't buy anything else. I've refinished 2 floors with this product and it preserves the floor really well. The first time we used a product be bought at a big box store and the finish never hardened, so we had to start over again. It was really depressing; tons of time down the drain. I have had the floors for about a year now with a few scratches from the dogs, but you can't see them unless you look really hard, so in my mind, it's done the job of maintaining the beauty of the floor. I did one floor in oak and the other was cypress. Both continue to look fantastic despite dogs, people and chairs. Also, there is almost no odor when you put it down (unlike the stuff from the store). Not sure why the home improvement stores sell inferior products; when we bought this you could only purchase it online.

Followed manufacturers instructions to a T. I sanded the floors completely. Stain the floors and let drive seven days. Applied the product and let Dry 10 days before moving furniture into the room. Product went down easily and looked great. But is super soft and chips really easily. I did my research and watched several videos on how to apply. Bought a custom roller to apply the product. I moved all my furniture back in the room and within a couple days I have chips and scratches everywhere. Really disappointing….. going to contact customer support tomorrow, But I’m sure they’re not gonna send somebody out to move all my furniture back out to Resand my floor and reapply the product.

We used it for a 12 ft red wood table. As I wanted a harder finish that still looked mat and did not change the color of the table. I was impressed at the finish look.

Used per directions on white oak, 2 coats over sealer, no stain. One week in and it’s looking good. Nice natural color, very slight amber tint from sealer topcoat was clear as advertised. Might try another coat on high traffic hallway. It is possible to scratch at this point with a fingernail pressing very hard (or dog claws). Don’t expect it to be glass hard, at least this soon, but seems plenty durable for our house.

This product cures to a surface that is VERY hard and very resistant to scrapes. I can slide furniture across cured surfaces without scratching the finish. There is no comparing this to $60 a can Verathane or Minwax floor. The products you have used before and are considering using again are soft and cheap. They are "amateur" products. Bona Traffic HD is a professional product used in high traffic areas in places like restaurants. It is so much better than the other floor finishes that are available at the Home Depot that I actually sanded off the Minwax coating I had put down a year ago after I saw how amazing this Bona product is. I don't need to protect my hardwood floors with carpets anymore and the matte finish hides imperfections caused during removal of the existing finish.

I used these on my oak stair treads. My wife wanted a matte finish, instead of the typical glossy finish. This was one of the few truly matte finishes I can find. Some other branded finishes are marked matte but were still very glossy. It was expensive, but it's holding up quite well; about 10 months now. For my stair treads I used only about 30%, with 3 coats.

Perfect for what I needed it for. This product is hard to find and is very pricey but I am happy I was able to find it! Unfortunately I had to repair some spots on an existing floor that had already started to peel after only 2 years.
