What is edge bonding in timber floor coatings?
Edge bonding occurs when solvent-based polyurethane coatings seep between board joints and bond adjacent boards together, restricting natural movement and potentially causing problems.
Edge bonding occurs when solvent-based polyurethane coatings seep between board joints and bond adjacent boards together, restricting natural movement and potentially causing problems. It is one of the risks associated with solvent-based polyurethane finishes. FSA Network floor sanders select and apply coatings to minimise the risk of edge bonding.
