hardwood floors applying final coat

[stewgames]

Can you Please tell me what Color Stain you used on ur floors and how many Coat of Polyurethane did you put on ur floors. Thank You

[omusialo]

@stewgames 3 coats is the pro-standard of work (1st sealer then 2 coats of regular poly), anything less is asking for another refinishing job shortly down the road.

I'm getting Brazilian cherry Bruce floors installed what would recommend fir protection

What! Bare feet? No way. Shoes are fine and it will leave no scuffs, unless you are wearing cheapo Walmart shoes. Lambswool is the best method of applying oil-based finish, no bubbles. Certainly have to wear shoe if staining, no? Moisture on feet over buffed raw wood?  Not a thing wrong with wearing shoes. That Masterline Finish is also cut heavily with paint thinner. I used Masterline everyday, and unless that is Lenmar or Woodline, its definitely cut.

@warmouth lambswool i heard is good, never tried it tho. I use micro fiber rollers everyday, 12" for small jobs, 18" for large jobs, works awsome, bubbles almost never show up unless you screw an area up.

@omusialo lambswool will make your floor look like a mirror.

what kind of roller do you use to do this?

[boscoesarmy]

nothing wrong with mohair rollers for finishing floors. very happy with the finish. whats wrong here is the guy shouldn't be wearing shoes, especially rubber soled sneakers or shoes as it leaves scuff marks no matter how lightly your walking. if u accidentally step on the laquer a little bit, it makes an awfull mess on the bare floor. i do mine barefoot, no shoe, no socks, just in bare feet. you can wipe your foot on the dry wood with no sticky smears.

I would never use a rollerl Too much chance of creating bubbles.

Lambs wool or bristle would be the better way to go.

Not a big fan of using a roller. I use a Shureline 7" pad from home depot. Works awesome!

hmm ok whats this stuff anyway

[ligjimmersteubenshaf]

I use a roller. They will actually tell you to use a roller out at our Lowes

@ligjimmersteubenshaf hi what this stuff he using to the final coat and will it damege the floor or is it good like a protecting coat and will itcollect dust i mean it looks sticky??

Respond to this video...rollers are fine but i recommend using a lambs wool applicator since it gives nice even flat coats. rollers tend to be messy since it releases a heavy amount.

Prefinished has a factory applied aluminum oxide finish = 15 to 40 year warranty. The beveled edges protect the finish by collecting the sand and dirt. keeping sand and dirt off of the walking surface helps prevent it scratching new floors. Less odor, less dust, less work. Oh and I have never seen a hardwood finisher use a roller to apply poly.

[derrell445]

this is the "real" way to do it, prefinished has beveled edges, to collect sand and dirt. finish on site, the "pro" floor is smooth and flat beautiful, no pre- finished floor compares

[datzfast]

agreed. i installed my own floor but didnt sand enough, but im still glad i used unfinished flooring

[osama559]

@datzfast can i use this stuff to make my car weels and tabloo look shinny ???

[datzfast]

@osama559 no
