PALLMANN PALL-X POWER is a one-component waterborne finish for wood floors in residential and high-wear commercial spaces. It goes on milky, dries clear and does not amber. It is sold by the gallon in satin, semi-gloss, gloss and matte (Pallmann calls the matte sheen Ultra Matte).

How to use
- Pallmann recommends a three-coat system: one coat of Pallmann sealer, such as Pallmann X-Clear, then two coats of finish.
- The finish may go directly over stain, but Pallmann advises a sealer over stain first.
- Shake the container hard for one minute. Do not thin it or add water.
- Apply with a T-bar, waterborne roller, brush or cut-in pad, holding 450–500 sq ft per gallon.
- Abrade between coats with a 120–180 grit screen or sanding strips. Do not go finer than 180 grit.
- Clean tools with water.
Dry and cure times
- Walk on: after about 2–3 hours
- Abrasion between coats: after 3–4 hours
- Full cure: about 4 days. Do not use cleaner on the floor during that time.
