Wooden Floor Sanding and Polishing

Polishing and sanding are important for timber floors because it totally changes how the wood looks and how it feels. The finishing makes the wooden surface smooth and pleasant to touch. The procedure involves three main stages: preparation, sanding, and polishing.

1. Preparation

●       Staples, tacks, and nails are removed or punched down. The glue used to secure coatings need to be removed as well.

2. Sanding

●       We use 36, 24, or 80 coarse-grit papers to flatten the floors. After gritting, an orbital finishing machine is used to provide the final finish.

3. Polishing

●       After sanding, the floor is vacuumed and coated with solvent-based polyurethane or other water-based products. We apply three coatings of each material to make floors look beautifully polished.

1. Sanding

●       We start with wetting the surface of sandpaper and marble and begin sanding with 220 to smooth out the surface, 400 for small blemishes, and 600 for anything else.

●       We progress through the gits reaching up to 2000. At this point, marble looks highly polished and blemish-free.

●       We use a marble sealer to apply with a rag for final touches.

2. Polishing

●       For polishing, we start the crystallization of marble which means the marble gets treated with chemicals to bring out the shine.

●       In the last step, we seal the floor with a good quality sealer to extend its life and to prevent it from cracks and chips.
