Refinishing steps to a beautiful floor.

 

           1st step     . Rough sand the old finish off the floor with

       a belt sander called a “Hummel”. This step cleans up the wood and makes it flat.

 

 

 

               2nd step

                                                                

         The edges get sanded with a disk sander               3rd Step

                                             Wood filler is applied to fill crack and nail hole

 

 

 

 

                                          

                                                                                     4th  Step       

                                                        Step one and two are repeated with fine grit sandpaper. 

                                                   This makes the wood smooth and removes extra wood filler.

 

 

       5th step

             The corners need to be scraped and hand sanded.

 

                                                6th step

                                                                                                     

                                                                                                 The wood is then buffed with a nylon screen                                                                                           to remove the transition between                                                                                                     the Hummel and the Edger   

                                                                                                   .

          Step 7

  

         After careful cleaning the floor is ready for finish.

         If desired, stain can be applied to change the color of the wood.  The floor is    ready to coated. The finish will be buffed again that makes it smooth and assure   bonding. We then apply three coats of floor finish to assure years of lasting beauty.
