Our yellow pine floors are in desperate need of re-finishing thanks to 2 very large dogs. The last time we had them done, three coats of polyurethane was applied. It scratched very easily from the beginning and after a few years, the scratch marks are down to bare wood in some heavy traffic areas.
We are planning to have the floors completely sanded and re-finished in a few weeks. I was wondering if anyone has experience using Tung Oil oppossed to the polyurethane as a finish; i.e., ease of application, length of time involved in the entire process and most importantly – durability. I was told that the Tung Oil allowed spot areas to be re-finished when necessary and were thus easier to maintain. Any opinions????????
