Why Cape Cod contractors run Traffic HD

Traffic HD is a two-component waterborne polyurethane and it is the finish most local pros reach for when the floor has to survive real use. Bona positions it for shopping malls, restaurants, offices, schools and hospitals, and the same properties are what make it work in a Falmouth summer rental that turns over every Saturday.

Two things matter most here. First, it cures fast enough to hand a house back: 80 percent cure at one day, 100 percent at three. Second, the coating is waterborne with a US regulatory VOC of 150 g/L and a non-offending odor, which is what lets you work in an occupied property without emptying it.

Working with it in coastal conditions

Bona's recommended window is 65 to 80°F at 40 to 60 percent relative humidity. Cape Cod spends most of July and August well above that humidity band. High humidity and low temperature both extend dry time, so the 2 to 3 hour recoat becomes a target rather than a guarantee. Run dehumidification, keep air moving, and check the coat instead of the clock.

The other coastal trap is mixing too much at once. With a hard 4 hour pot life and no second chance at mixing, a batch that outlives the session is money on the floor. If you are unsure how much to mix for a given square footage, that is a two-minute conversation at the counter.

Frequently asked questions

Do you stock Bona Traffic HD in Falmouth?

Yes. JR Hardwood Supplies is an authorized Bona distributor and keeps Traffic HD in stock at 112 Davis Straits, Falmouth, MA. Sheens and pack sizes move fast in season, so call (508) 524-8957 before you drive and we will confirm what is on the shelf that morning.

What is the pot life of Bona Traffic HD?

Bona's US technical data sheet states the finish and hardener mixture must be used within 4 hours after mixing, and that product properties are diminished after that. The two parts can only be mixed once. Mix what you will lay down in the session, not the whole job.

How much Traffic HD do I need per square foot?

Bona specifies 350 to 400 square feet per gallon per coat, and warns against spreading it thinner than that. At 375 sq ft per gallon, two coats of Traffic HD over 1,000 square feet works out to roughly 5 to 6 gallons before waste. Add the sealer or stain coat on top of that and round up: running short mid-coat costs you a lap line, not just a trip to the shop.

How long between coats of Traffic HD?

2 to 3 hours under the recommended conditions of 65 to 80°F and 40 to 60 percent relative humidity. High humidity or low temperature extends it, which on Cape Cod in July or August is the normal case rather than the exception. If more than 48 hours pass between coats, abrade before recoating.

When can the floor be walked on and when is it fully cured?

Bona lists 80 percent cure after one day and 100 percent after three days. The floor may be walked on after 24 hours but stays vulnerable to scuffing and marring until fully cured, and area rugs should stay off until then.

Do I need a sealer under Traffic HD on a stained floor?

No. Bona states that no sealer is needed over a stained floor. Over bare wood, the standard protocol is a Bona sealer or Bona stain plus two coats of Traffic HD, three coats total, with a third coat of Traffic HD recommended in heavy-traffic areas.
