Before

Clear Maple from 1840
 Originally varnished


Specific needs:

1.  It was a must to maintain historical standards with the finish.
2.  Sanding was not an option.  They wanted no wood taken off the floor.

 

After

1.  Work completed in 3 days - 1 day ahead of schedule
2.  Used SandFree through Phase 4.  This presented a surface to which any finish could adhere.
3.  Because SandFree made the floor ready to receive another coat of finish, we were able to find a finish that had been made in the 1800s and would be consistent with the materials of the time
4. Customer has scheduled other historic properties to be SandFree'd also.
