A completely dust free finish. It is impossible to have a “clean room” environment and so there will always be some dust particles in the air that may settle on the wet coating. These dust particles will appear as small "stipples" in the finished floor surface that will walk off quite quickly in traffic areas.

Removal of deep cuts such as those from carpet trimming knives or deep gouges in the boards. These deep cuts & gouges will often appear darker in colour.
|
|
|
Removal of all stains by the sanding process. Animal urine stains and water marks within the boards and around nail holes are often impossible to successfully sand out.
|
|
|
Filling of gaps between the boards. These gaps are not filled because subsequent shrinkage and expansion in the timber will often cause cracking in the filler.
|
|
|
Do not expect boards damaged by borers or other insects to have the same gloss level as those in good condition. The gloss level on insect effected boards will almost always be lower.
|
|
|
Do not expect any areas filled with putty to have the same feel as the timber after application of coatings.

All paintwork should be properly dry before application of polyurethane to the floor. It is best to leave most paints 2 weeks to fully cure.
(Refer to paint manufacturers directions).
