Low VOC stain for use with Bona HD

2 years ago

Ok, so my flooring contractor uses Bona HD, which is fine. But they use Duraseal stain, and i wanted to suggest something low VOC. I want to suggest PureColor stain but it is water based and doesnt include a sealer. They say you can put Bona on top of it once it dries. Is there any disadvantage to no sealer? thanks to anyone who knows!

There are no major issues by not sealing over stain coats. Most stain coats are designed to seal. So, if, it is not required, you do not need to use it. If, you want a better build and protection, add a additional coat of poly - Bona HD coat.
