    Thank you. So it seems you only did one coat of polyurethane.
    Looks good.
    My floors are also 73 years old. I also used the same polyurethane 10 years ago. I need to do it again.
    But now I need to use that expensive water base product. Three coats it will be.

      Very cool! Thanks for sharing! ! And no problem. You got to figure if it made it this long it will probably last another 10 at least haha

  • @tuesdayderelictsandfriends8135

    Well for a rustic look that's fine, but if you want to make a floor look new you need a heavier sander and an edger. A lot harder to do. But that's awesome for the look!! Great job

    • @GrantKeysProperties
      @GrantKeysProperties  Рік тому +2

      Thank you!! Yeah it’s perfect here but you can grind as much as you want to for sure and the more will be needed for a super clean look. Thanks for checking in!

    These floors look better than when you started, but far from what they could be. I recommend watching a video on how the pros do it. Not someone that had to rent their sander.

      @GrantKeysProperties  2 місяці тому +1

      I could have got rougher sandpaper if I wanted. Then the finer sandpaper after but I like this and was quite easy. Ohh yeahhh and if you hire the pro, expect to spend $5,000 plus. Thanks for checking in!

    What grit of sander did you use, when did you k ow when to change the sand paper

    • @GrantKeysProperties
      @GrantKeysProperties  Рік тому +2

      Great question! If it’s bad, start with the lower grit paper, a real rough paper. If it’s in good condition already and just talking off a small layer of stain ect. Use a higher grit paper, a fine paper to do that one. I used I believe 40 grit first then an 80 grit next and the paper you can change when it has holes in it or is no longer taking layers off. You will see a difference after a few minutes. I went through 3 or 4 in the room hopefully this helps!

      This I think so but I’ve learned a lot by working for other companies and I have done 2 years of tech school for framing and construction trades also. I’ve worked in lots of trades though! And have 15 years of experience in flipping houses myself, some major renovations 10 of them now and I’ve built 3 houses myself from the ground up alone.
