Loba 2 Component Finishes
Loba’s two component floor finishes are a combination of a finish and a hardener that speeds up the drying process, allowing the finish to be cured in as little as 12 hours. The chemical reaction between the two components makes the finish harder, more resistant to chemical stains, and more durable overall. However, this chemical change also makes the finish slightly more difficult to spread and achieve a perfect finish.
