This guide was a solid, practical rundown of floor finishes without getting too salesy. I liked the clear comparison between water-based and oil-based polyurethane, plus the reminder that prep and dust control are what really make or break durability. The maintenance tips at the end (felt pads, pH-neutral cleaners) were simple but useful. I would’ve appreciated a quick note on cure times before moving furniture back in, but overall it’s a helpful read.
This guide is super practical and I liked that it didn’t just push one product—explaining when polyurethane makes sense vs. hardwax oils was helpful. The prep section (moisture check, progressive sanding, vacuuming) is a good reminder of what actually makes the finish last. I would’ve appreciated a quick note on cure times before moving furniture back in, but overall it’s a solid, usable rundown.
