The property i have just bought has wooden floors that i intend to polish.Some people have tried to talk me out of doing it in a rental as they will not be looked after.I plan on having carpet in the bedrooms.I will only polish the living areas and kitchen.
I intend to go a light colour/stain and possibly a low gloss or satin finish. Would this be the go with a rental? Boards are cypris pine i believe.
Also the kitchen has a lot of tar left over after the lino removal. Has anyone had any trouble polishing through this.i have been told the tar may have stained deep into the timber but the scrap marks i have put in the wood so far seem to show clean timber under the surface. I plan on using a coarse sandpaper to remove the tar or at worst a electric wood plane.
Any other info on this would be great.
Cheers
