Question
Is it possible to find a wood sealer for oregon and parquet floors that doesn't darken the floors after it's been sanded? I live in an old house that is quite dark, so I'd prefer it if the floors were to retain its colour when sanded. Thanks Donna
Answer
Hi Donna,Every sealer will slightly darken sanded wood - no matter what product you use. The lightest solution would be a Woodoc 25 Matt or Satin Floor Sealer.
The only other solution would be to whitewash the floors, which would spoil the wood. Quality paint that is applied to a clean floor and then allowed to cure is virtually impossible to remove once covered with two or three coats of polyurethane.
