staining and finishing floors

RobN | Posted in Construction Techniques on

I have a pine floor that I have installed and need to get it finished, however the moisture content is sitting at 12%.  Should I wait until it falls to 8% and if I decide to finish it what would it look like.  The species of wood is white pine.
