Bona Gap Master - Oak Light - 310ml

Product Information

Gap filling usually takes place as a part of the wood floor restoration process. With time and due to natural expansion and contraction of the timber, gaps may start appearing between the planks of your wooden floor. Sometimes those gaps are very tiny and only a minor effort is enough to fill them. About Gap-Filling Bona gap master filler is a silicone-free adhesive that can be used for minor repairs and gap filling. The product is manufactured in fourteen different colours, so finding a good match for your floor is perfectly possible. Another option is to use PVA glue instead of resin but the results are arguably not as satisfying. The resin seems superior in some ways is this is the reason for its popularity.

There are several ways to fill the gaps in a wooden floor. The most popular method by far is by mixing a filler resin with sawdust. This technique allows the filler to acquire the natural colour of the surface upon which it is applied and is used mostly for smaller gaps. The third method involves using glued wood slivers for larger gaps. Unfortunately, the slivers often limit the natural movement of the floor and tend to split from time to time. There is also the Papier-mache but this alternative requires a lot of attention to pull off properly and is not very efficient. Finally, we have the flooring filler and the decorator's caulk. These are flexible materials which limit the movement of the floor yet allow it some degree of freedom. One of the main advantages they bring is the possibility to use them on boards with no tongues or grooves.

Bona gap master filler is rather expensive but it can bring a lot to the table. The main benefits of the filler are that it is flexible with a 7% expansion rate and odour-free. The drying time is 18 – 24 hours, which means floor sanding can take place in minimum 18 hours after the Bona gap master filler had been applied but the full hardness is achieved only after two to three days.
