Can Bona Craft Oil 2K be used on Spotted Gum?
Yes — Bona lists Spotted Gum as a suitable substrate for Bona Craft Oil 2K.
Bona's TDS for Bona Craft Oil 2K lists the following substrates: hardwood-generic, engineered, parquetry, oak, blackbutt, spotted-gum.
Spotted Gum is covered by that list. In practice, tannin-rich Australian hardwoods (Blackbutt, Spotted Gum) can require a neutralising primer before waterborne topcoats to prevent tannin bleed-through. Always confirm the primer/topcoat combination against the product's Specifier Paragraphs for the species at hand.
