Junckers MT500 Floor Lacquer – Water-Based Polyurethane Floor Lacquer for Medium Traffic Wooden Floors

The **Junckers MT500 Floor Lacquer** is a premium water-based, one-component polyurethane/acrylic floor lacquer designed to protect and enhance wooden floors in residential and light commercial environments. Developed to provide an attractive, hard-wearing finish, MT500 combines excellent durability with fast drying times and easy application, making it a popular choice for flooring professionals and experienced DIY users alike. It is particularly suited to areas exposed to medium levels of foot traffic, including kitchens, hallways, stairs and offices.

Suitable for use on new, sanded and previously sealed timber floors, Junckers MT500 delivers a clear, durable finish that enhances the natural beauty of the wood while helping to protect it against everyday wear and tear.

Designed for Medium Traffic Areas

Not every floor requires an industrial-grade coating. The MT500 Floor Lacquer has been specifically developed for environments where floors receive regular daily use but are not subjected to the heavy demands of retail stores, museums or restaurants.

Typical applications include:

* Hallways
* Living rooms
* Dining rooms
* Kitchens
* Bedrooms
* Home offices
* Staircases
* Apartment floors
* Light commercial offices
* Meeting rooms

Its excellent balance of durability and ease of application makes it ideal for projects where reliable everyday performance is required.

Water-Based Polyurethane Technology

Junckers MT500 is formulated using a modern water-based polyurethane/acrylic system. This provides several advantages over many traditional solvent-based floor finishes, including lower odour during application, faster drying times and easier cleaning of application tools with soap and water.

The water-based formulation also helps preserve the natural appearance of timber, producing a clear finish that allows the grain and character of the wood to remain visible.

One-Component Simplicity

Unlike two-component systems that require mixing with a hardener before use, MT500 is supplied as a ready-to-use one-component lacquer.

Benefits include:

* No complicated mixing
* Reduced product waste
* Faster preparation
* Simple application
* Consistent results
* Ideal for smaller projects

This ease of use makes it suitable for both professional flooring contractors and confident DIY users working on timber floor renovations.

Suitable for New and Existing Floors

The lacquer is suitable for a wide range of wooden flooring projects.

Recommended for:

* Newly installed timber floors
* Machine-sanded wooden floors
* Previously lacquered floors
* Hardwood flooring
* Engineered wood flooring
* Solid timber flooring
* Parquet floors
* Domestic wooden floors

For untreated or freshly sanded timber, Junckers recommends using a compatible primer before applying the finishing coats of MT500 to achieve optimum adhesion and performance.

Attractive Natural Finish

One of the biggest advantages of Junckers MT500 is its ability to enhance the natural beauty of wood without masking its character.

The lacquer dries to a clear, colourless finish that highlights the timber's natural grain while providing long-lasting protection. It is available in a range of sheen levels, including:

* Ultramatt
* Matt
* Silk Matt

This allows you to achieve the appearance that best suits your interior design, from an almost untreated natural look to a slightly richer finish.

Fast Drying Performance

Time is often critical during floor installation and refurbishment projects. MT500 has been developed to dry quickly, allowing additional coats to be applied without lengthy waiting periods.

Under normal conditions:

* Recoat after approximately 4 hours
* Ready for light foot traffic after around 8 hours
* Fully cured after approximately 72 hours

Actual drying times may vary depending on room temperature, humidity and ventilation.

Excellent Flow and Levelling

A quality floor lacquer should not only protect the floor but also leave a smooth, attractive finish.

MT500 features excellent flow characteristics, helping to minimise roller marks and create an even coating across the surface. The result is a professional-looking finish that enhances the appearance of both modern and traditional timber floors.

Easy Application

For best results:

1. Ensure the floor is clean, dry and free from dust, grease and old polish residues.
2. Sand the surface if necessary.
3. Apply a compatible Junckers primer on bare timber.
4. Allow the primer to dry.
5. Lightly abrade between coats where recommended.
6. Apply MT500 using a suitable floor roller or brush.
7. Allow sufficient drying time before recoating.

Following the manufacturer's application guidelines helps achieve the best finish and long-term durability.

Excellent Coverage

The lacquer provides excellent coverage of approximately **10m² per litre**, making it an economical choice for both small domestic rooms and larger flooring projects.

Coverage may vary depending on the absorbency and condition of the timber surface.

Healthy Indoor Environment

Junckers MT500 has received the **Danish Indoor Climate Labelling**, a recognised certification awarded to products that meet strict requirements for low emissions and indoor air quality.

This makes it an excellent choice for homes, offices, schools and other interior spaces where indoor comfort is important.
