I have a 3/4″ oak floor 10 years old with a oil base ******** Polyurethane. I have lived here since the floor was installed and no wax has ever been used. Cleaned only with damp cloth of water and vinegar. Recently I cleaned floor with damp thinner cloth and about two hours later I applied a coat of the same Polyurethane as original used and a second coat six hours later. The floor looked beautiful for about a month and then bubbles started appearing mostly where the boards join. I did not do any sanding, and mineral sprits may have not dried in the cracks.
Is it more expensive to do the cork and glued-down method or the plywood and nailed-down method? (a concrete sub floor)
What are your favourite online flooring resources/links? Where do you go for info.?
There is a greasy film on our non wax wood floors that I am trying to remove. Not sure how to do it.
I just bought a new house and want to refinish the hardwood floors and paint the entire interior. Is it best to paint first and then do the floors or vice versa?
…If this happens to be an engineered wood floor, is there any problem with sanding and refinishing it? My understanding is that you can, but this type of floor can’t take this process as often as a solid wood floor. Is that true?
