How do I Paint an Interior Floor?

  2. Otex Akva (for bare wood)

Intermediate

  1. Multistop Internal blocking primer if required (ensure left to dry for 24 hours before topcoat)

Topcoat

It is particularly important when painting interior floors to allow the paint to dry and cure before use. Consult the technical data sheet of each individual product for details but in general, you should be able to walk gently on the floors within the first few days, but it can take several weeks before the paint is fully cured.
