When do I know its time to re-coat or refinish my floor?
When your floor begins to look worn, this is a sign that it may need re-sanding or refinishing. A simple test to tell what you need to do is to pour a tablespoon or two of water onto your floor. If the water beads, your floor is simply a little dirty or tarnished from wear and tear. The solution in this case is just some cleaning or stain removal. If over a period of a few minutes the water slowly soaks into your floor, your floor is partially worn and will need re-coating or refinishing soon, but for the time being, just take a little extra care. If the water soaks right in, it is time to re-coat or re-sand and refinish your flooring.
