Urgent glue question!!!
Comments (5)I am doing 1st and 2nd floors. Below the 1st floor is basement. I laid an 8mil vapor barrier before the basement slab was poured... overlapped, seams sealed... my basement is VERY dry. Within 1-2% moisture content reading of 1st floor. Are you saying that hardwood floors are affected by moisture from below predominantly? How much impact does moisture on the finished side of the floor have compared to from below? With the very dry basement, it seems to me that Bostik's Best with a permeability of 5.9x10-4 is going to also give ma an additional layer of protection... in addition to filling any voids and eliminating any possibility of squeaks caused by board movement from walking on it.

Comments (454)We installed Cyril Oak through out our house a little over a year ago. Im having a terrible time keeping it clean. Dirt gets in the grain pattern which makes it look way darker than when it was new. The only way I’ve have found to clean it is scrubbing with a bleach product. I ordered some of the floor cleaner that Cortec recommended and that cleaned the floor but not the grain pattern. I’ve talked to my housekeeper about changing her pads more oven. I think they were just pushing around dirt. Im so frustrated and disappointed in these floors. They looked beautiful while they were new and after spending 4 hours on my hands and knees scrubbing them. Has anyone else had this issue? And if so what solution have you come up with? I called the Flooring retailer who also did the installation and they recommended trying the diluted bleach cleaner. UGH!...See MoreURGENT HELP re: Oak Floor Refinishing
Comments (5)If, you have white oak , you will want to use the sealer to prevent tannin pull. Side bonding occurs when the joints are glued together by a "water base" finish. Which leads to panelization, where you end up with a 1/2" gap in one or more areas of the floor. For residential, 1 coat of sealer and 2 coats of Traffic HD is recommended. I would be concerned with applying 4 coats. Which can be too much film build and can lead to white lines in the joints. If, the installer is following Bona's instruction of making the final sanding pass at 150 grit. 1 coat of sealer and 2 coats of HD is all you need for residential. Their 4 coat system maybe to build up with cheap poly and finalizing with 1 coat of HD. Which is not comparable to what Bona recommends. You will need to sample the finish for the look you want. Everyone will have a different perspective of how their floors should look. Natural seal and Nordic seal is a good starting point for the look you want. HD is more durable than Naturale....See MoreSuggestions for a Light Color, low variation, no bevel, LVP
Comments (53)I also considered those two other colors. The floor is a hard thing to photograph because of all the different lighting. I looked through my phone for a pic that looked most like it does in person. I took this pic yesterday when it was overcast... I think it's about right. It's kind of a chameleon floor. You can see the red cat toy under the chair. The red seems to bring out a bit of a pink tone, more than is really there, I think. Closer to the doors, next to gray chair you see gray popping out. When I look at the floor I see a warm tan (golden) undertone with some gray streaks and because my red oak wood stairs are still a bit pink (despite bleaching) I see a little bit of pink in the floor, thankfully. For a second, I regretted the Lotus clove when I laid out the first pieces in the strong light, I thought it was too bland and I should have been bolder with the color. It was so subtle. Once it went in and I let the warm sunset light and and the furniture colors (and cat toys) do their reflective thing I totally changed my mind. Lotus Clove is a realistic, plain white oak-look floor that doesn't draw too much attention to itself. I think it's great....See Moremillworkman
