Can we lighten this floor without painting it??

Can we lighten this Baltic Pine timber floor without painting it??
First we go in with THE BIG MACHINE to sand all the old oil based poly off. Going around the outside with THE EDGER. We had a small repair to do on an unneeded air vent. Using some oscillating blades on the multitool to cut out the planks and right through this nail! Impressed! Next we fit some reclaimed boards and give it a quick sand (see what we did there).. Then we hand scrape the corners and finish them off with the triangle sander. Then we are onto coating with the magic ‘Quicksand Mix’. This will add a white tint to the varnish and make the floor so much lighter without painting it 💪🏻
Beautiful! Done!

Do you ever stain the wood?

[@cnut4563a]

Verrrrrry nice. Why aren't you sanding diagonally on this one?

[@QuicksandFlooring]

Cheers! So every floor gets sanded a little differently, if the floor is even and flat already we won’t sand diagonally 👍🏻

How many coats do you apply?

Cheers! On this job we did 1 coat of FlexPrimer, 2 coats of NordicWhite and 1 coat of CeramicStar UltraMatt 👍🏻

The old amber poly is so warm and comforting, the bright pale wood shade is so institutional and cold. Whatever the customer wants though. Nice job either way!

I’m with ya, I’d like a nice color in between the two though.
