our team all fully trained flooring specialists
The wood flooring sanding and sealing
services of Hardwood floors, Oak floor wood sanding and sealing,
Beech sanding and sealing, Maple sanding and sealing, Cherry
sanding and sealing, Walnut sanding and sealing or any softwood
floors sanding and sealing is not as simple as it looks unless
you have experience using the new modern sanding machines it
very easy to damage the floor by leaving sanding dig marks and
other sanding lines in the floor if you do not know what you
are doing.
Sanding and sealing of all wooden floors
The preparation is always the key to every success and with
sanding floors. You must make sure that the room is empty before
you start sanding and sealing. If this is not possible you can
always ask a member of our team to help. The new modern sanding
machine bags are fire proof, so it is not possible to catch
fire not like the old sanding machines, and have 99% dust extraction
If the wood flooring is in pretty good condition you will be
able to get started sanding quite quickly but if any of the
flooring is in need of repairs, you will have do this done before
you can start any sanding work. If the floor is cupped or warped
this will require additional sanding with our new Trio sander
as our Hummel sanding machines won't reach the low spots in
the board surface properly. If any of the floor boards need
to be replaced we keep a good stock of reclaimed timber. The
idea of using stain on the new boards to match the colour of
the older boards is a good idea if you have plenty of time and
don't mind making mistakes. When applying stain it is better
to put stain on with one soft cloth and wipe off with a dry
cloth to get an even finish it is always better to stain the
complete floor to give it a more even colour, before applying
any Bonakemi or Junckers floor seal
You can fill any gapes in your floor with Bonakemi Mix n Fill
wood filler just mix the mix n fill with your clean saw dust
to make a good past and the fill the gapes. When the filler
is dry, you will need to re-sand the filler and clean the floor
before any Bonakemi or Junckers seal is applied
Sanding and sealing of all wood floors
With the modern sanding machines sanding and sealing of your
hardwood flooring or softwood flooring need not be a dusty any
dirty operation any more. The best way to making it virtually
dust free is to use the Hummel sanding machines with Bonakemi
DCS dust extra units. Most hire shops will only supply with
old drum sanding machines and cheap sand paper with very poor
dust extraction leveling you to clean up all the messes if you
can try to hire a professional Belt sanding machine. It is possible
for you to hire professional Belt sanding machine and edging
machine you have a good chance of door a great job
Another feature of the Hummel sanding machine is the belt pressure
adjustment you can change the adjustment to what grade of sand
paper you are using at the time, this will help you get a much
better finish
Sanding and sealing
Start sanding your flooring using a 36 grit paper to remove
the dirt that has built up over time on the floorboards. always
sand up and down the grain most times will only need to start
with a 40 grit paper then 80 grit and 100 grit paper when the
floor is clean you can then start with the edging sander and
a small orbital sander the more time you spend of the preparation
the better the floor finish will be, if you can hire a Trio
sand machine to do the final finish before any seal goes on
you floor
Sanding and sealing of all wood floors
Now you have finished the sanding of the floor you are ready
to apply the Bonakemi or Junckers floor seal, give the floor
a final clean, and you are ready to apply your Bonakemi or Junckers
wood floor seal, not do be tempted to use a cheap wood floor
seal. It will not last and you Know Howe hard you have worked
it would be a sham to spoil it at this stage, if you do decide
to stain your floor always use a Bonakemi or Junckers primer
first this will stop any cracking in your floor, and help the
final coats of seal to bond to your floor
Sanding and Sealing of all wood floors
All Bonakemi and Junckers wood floor seal have full instruction
on the Bottles it is always best to read them first and give
the seal a good shake before you start
A good quality six inch paint brush is good for cutting the
edges just take your time and do a good job
You will not be able to apply too much sealer when using a water
based seal so you need to pay attention on getting a good coverage
without missing any parts of your floor
After you have applied the first coat of seal you may get grain
raze in the wood this is normal after the have applied the [primer
and the fist coat of seal You will now need to cut the floor
back with Bonakemi Scrad system, and then clean the floor with
a vacuum cleaner after every sanding
The process is repeated between the second and third coat as
well. We use either Bonakemi or Junckers floor Seal we do recommend
using a water base seal which does not leave any solvent smells
in your home or work place
