Is Buffing & Coating Right For Your Flooring?
Floor buffing and recoating is an ideal solution for anyone looking to remedy surface-level imperfections in their wood flooring. It’s important to note that deeper issues—such as cracks, splits, or excessively deep scratches—are not treated through buffing and recoating, which primarily focuses on removing minor damages from the surface of the wood such as small nicks, surface scratches, and product residues. All that said, if your floor falls into any of those categories, this service is a great option for restoring its beauty and longevity.
Types Of Hardwood Coating
Today, three of the most commonly used finishes for hardwood flooring are water-based polyurethane, oil finishes and wax finishes.
WATER-BASED POLYURETHANE FINISH
Water-based polyurethane finishes are made from water, polyurethane resins, and other additives. They offer a fast drying time and minimal odor during application. Additionally, they provide excellent protection against scratches, wear, and moisture damage while maintaining the natural look of the wood.
OIL BASED FINISHES
Oil finishes are made from oils such as linseed oil, tung oil or walnut oil that penetrate deep into the wood fibers providing a protective finish that enhances the beauty of the hardwood flooring without changing its color or texture. These types of finishes require frequent maintenance but don’t have to be stripped off before refinishing can occur.
WATER BASED FINISHES
Wax finishes offer a soft luster and natural sheen to hardwood floors. They are easy to apply and provide a protective barrier against dirt and spills. Wax finishes require regular maintenance, however, as they will eventually dry out and dull over time. Additionally, it should not be used on prefinished hardwood floors as it can damage the existing finish.
