  • Just resanded one room (two to go).
    Used an orbital sander as already had one, 24 then 60 then 120 grit. Refinished with Bona primer then two coats of the ‘natural’ one.

    Floors weren’t too bad before and it wasn’t bad, it took a day. Use a relevant mask and also knee pads!

    Before (ignore dog) and after photo.

  • This looks amazing and definitely confirms what I'll go for re Bona treatments. I can easily borrow an orbital sander and the first room is so small, maybe I'll just try with that in the first place...

  • If you're South London, you're welcome to borrow my corded belt and orbit sanders. You'd just need belts and sanding discs which are cheap from Toolstation/Screwfix. Definitely slower than an industrial hired sander, but at least then you can take your own time and hook them up to a henry hoover for even better dust control.
