Engineered Wood Floor Sanding Proces
1. Assessment & Inspection
Before starting, you must check the thickness of the wear layer (the top layer of real wood).
2. Preparation
- Clear the area: Remove all furniture and rugs.
- Cleaning: Vacuum the floor to remove any debris.
- Check for damage: Secure any loose boards and countersink protruding nails
- 3. Sanding (The Core Process)
Sanding engineered wood requires a delicate touch. Use an orbital sander instead of a heavy drum sander to prevent removing too much wood.
- Initial Sanding: Use a coarse grit (e.g., 60-grit) to strip the old finish and scratches.
- Intermediate Sanding: Use a medium grit (e.g., 80-grit) to smooth out the grain.
- Final Sanding: Use a fine grit (e.g., 100 or 120-grit) for a perfectly smooth surface.
- Edging: Use an edge sander (edger) to reach corners and baseboards.
-
4 Finishing (Sealing)Apply a protective coating to lock in the look and protect the wood.
- Polyurethane (Water-based ): Provides a durable, plastic-like shield.
- Oil: Gives a more natural, matte look and is easier to spot-repair later.
- Buffing: Lightly sand (buff) between coats for a professional, smooth result.
5. Curing- Allow the floor to dry and cure. Usually, you can walk on it in socks after 24 hours, but wait at least 72 hours before moving heavy furniture back.
