In Filipino homes, tiled floors are common for living and kitchen areas but wooden floors are also typical especially for bedrooms. For wood and parquet floors, varnish is recommended to keep them in excellent condition for a long time. Some households may also find a use for painted concrete floors such as in garages or perhaps for basketball floor markings if the family is especially keen on the sport.

Boysen has varnish and paint products that are specially formulated so they can be applied on floors. We’ve compiled them into a list to serve as your guide.

This post is part of a series that also include Boysen top choice products for: home concrete exteriors, kitchens, bedrooms, and roofs.

1. Hudson Polyurethane Floor Varnish

3 Top Choice Varnish and Paint Products for Home Flooring | MyBoysen

Protect and showcase the beauty of your wooden floors with Hudson Polyurethane Floor Varnish. Used for interior wooden flooring including parquets, Hudson Polyurethane Floor Varnish provides a tough, long-term layer of protection that prevents damage to wooden floors. It also gives an attractive glossy finish that’s resistant to spills (even from certain chemicals) and makes cleaning easier.

Varnishing your floors will require the use of both Hudson Polyurethane Floor Varnish sealer and then topcoat. Each is comprised of two components that are mixed together in proper ratios before use. This is just one of the reasons it may be best to entrust this project to a professional. Varnishing floors can be a complicated task that requires skill and expert knowledge.

2. Hudson Timbercoat

3 Top Choice Varnish and Paint Products for Home Flooring | MyBoysen

Here’s varnish for wood and parquet floors that can be used for both interiors and exteriors. Hudson Timbercoat is a polyurethane water-based wood coating that can protect your wooden floors and give it an elegant finish.

Compared to Hudson Polyurethane Floor Varnish, Hudson Timbercoat is water-based making it low-odor and less harmful to the environment. Instead of two components, it’s also only a single component—so no mixing of separate parts necessary (though the product does need to be shaken for several seconds before use). Moreover, it’s also a sealer in itself so there’s no need to purchase a sealer.

Hudson Timbercoat takes 7 days to fully cure and comes in gloss, semi-gloss, and matte finishes. It can also be used not just on floors but also furniture, fixtures, cabinets, doors, and panels. Again, calling in a professional to do the job is best for the inexperienced.

*Bonus Info: Boysen Epoxy Enamel

Boysen Epoxy Enamel is the solvent-based counterpart of the water-based Boysen Acqua Epoxy. Both are epoxy paints!

So, what makes them different in terms of use? Being solvent-based, Boysen Epoxy Enamel is extremely durable and has excellent corrosion resistance. Because of this, it’s more commonly used for industrial or commercial purposes such as for the concrete floor of warehouses. For households looking to paint their concrete floors, Boysen Acqua Epoxy is already perfectly suited for the job!

We hope this list serves as a helpful guide for those looking to varnish or paint the floors of your home. Wishing you luck and stunning results!
