    So anyone who is watching this, I want you to know that no one good at floors stains with a buffer. That is by far the laziest worst application I've seen. The guy I work with has done it for 30 years and I have done it for 8. You don't use a buffer that is ridiculous.

      But if you are going to do it. Rent a belt flooring sander and a flooring buffer. Sand well, then open the grain and wipe on and off.
