Over time, wood floors are damaged and tarnished. However, with good polished and an appropriate procedure in a few steps, wooden floors and parquet flooring damaged or scratched can be easily recovered, reaching very good results.
The first instance at the time of recovery and renewal of a wood floor is the cleaning. At this point you should empty the room to be renovated. It should remove all the elements are there, pieces of furniture, curtains and carpets, as well as the tapes of the bases, by using a chisel.
In turn, they have to hide all the nails protruding from the ground, prior to thorough cleaning of the part using a vacuum cleaner over the entire surface. Then the surface can be sanded wooden floor if required, but only enough to restore.
Give damaged floor shine
Before we can fully restore the damaged floor, we recommend creating a complete sanding of the piece. Using an orbital sander, seek the total elimination of previous paint until the wood floor is opaque.
At the time of use of the sander, you may be required several passes, depending on this type of material directly from the soil. In the event that the apartment is of boards, we recommend sanding parallel to the direction of the boards. If has parquet or mosaic decorations should be sanded diagonally to the direction of the fiber.
After sanding, you should have cleaned up the room, before applying the glaze. The coats of varnish should be performed regularly, starting from the light, in order to identify bugs. After a few hours, sand the floor again with a size of 120 sanders. Then clean the whole floor again, before returning to pass a new coat of varnish.
