FEATURES:
RD-Monovar PU is a single-component varnish based on acrylic and polyurethane resins that offers a hard flexible and wear resistant film that can be used for decorative and protective purposes including floors.
RD-Monovar PU is water-based, easy to handle, safe and has no fire risks.
It is a fast-drying coating system that greatly reduces downtime during installation.
Virtually odour free, it does not affect neighbouring occupants and can therefore be used in occupied buildings.
