Difficult to apply without leaving streaks

It seems quite a good product, but I found application quite hard. I had to rush with applying it to avoid leaving streaks. Feathering didn't quite work as expected and I had to sand between coats, which was quite tiresome on a whole room. It scratches in some places when moving boxes and furniture, but I only waited for 3days to cure before having to move in.

Neither ‘diamond hard’ nor durable

This floor varnish is neither diamond hard nor durable. It started coming off in light traffic areas in under a year. This photo was taken four years later. By paying twice the price of other varnishes I was disappointed that it wasn’t hard wearing longevity.

Awful durability - avoid

I put this product down around 18 months ago, and it has basically all come off in higher traffic areas, and mostly come off in light traffic areas. It is not 'diamond hard', it is a load of rubbish. It goes on well, although I do agree with another review that the colour is more greeny than rich brown, although a few more coats would provably sort that. I am now in a position where I have to either live with it or strip the boards completely back and finish again.

Recovers well on existing floorboards

Excellent coverage drying quickly. When applying gives a blueish hue so you know where you have covered which disappeared when dry.

Nice natural looking stain

I bought the medium oak to stain new pine floorboards which turned them orange so bought this to try over the top to redeem the colour a little. It definitely helped take some of the orange out of it. I then used this by itself to stain a few pieces for windowsills and it looks lovely - wish I had done the whole floor with it. On the pine it looks quite close to the colour on the tin swatch - just a little more natural and not as orangey. It's really easy to apply and dries pretty quickly. Only complaint is that some patches on the floor that get wet where we put our shoes has already started to rub off after just 8 months and we applied 3 coats...Will probably look for a different brand next time.

Good colour

The colour came out good and I was pleased with it, unfortunately, this product scratches easily! It scratched straight away and even after being down for weeks now it still scratches easily, disappointed with that as I put a lot of effort in to preparing the floor beforehand. For application I recommend you use a brush and roller as stated on the tin, I used a paint pad and have a few Brush (pad) marks in places.

Great to work with

I wanted a dark floor but not too dark, so I went for the dark oak. I was tempted for the Walnut but didn’t want a red tone to it. I’m over the moon with it now. I just hope it holds up on the 1930’s sanded pine boards I have. I did 6 coats as I wanted it darker. It’s a little too yellowy brown on the first few coats. Over the moon with it now! I bought an old tub which had the pad within (very very useful) and a new tin can of this. The old tub was a slightly different colour. Seems the new tin has a more warmer redder tone to it, which turned out great. Remember to keep the surface spotless in between coats, as once any dust gets on it it’ll leave marks.

The perfect job

Having opened the tin, I was a little worried about the colour of the liquid but, once it slid onto the newly prepared floorboards it was perfect. Also concerned about getting an even colour, I found that it went on smoothly and very evenly, having followed the instrucitons that is, I find that always a good idea! So far ( 3 weeks) the surface has been unmarked although I did drop a piece of granate fireplace on the floor (oops) and it dug in but, topping up the damaged spot, no-one would ever know. Seems to be set for the long haul. Very pleased with the finish and colour and would use the same range again with no hesitation at all.

Looks good but not a durable finish

I did all the prep required and put 3 coats of varnish on my floor; it looks really good but it is very easily chipped and even moving a dining chair leaves marks. There are no pets or children in the house so 'diamond hard' is not what you get even with light use. Ronseal take no responsibility and say either my prep was not good or the wood underneath is to blame
