Was it pickled with the bona traffic satin? Or a different product?

    Hi - this is a 4" #1 red oak.

    Thank you for the quick reply. Im going with the countru white but on select red oak and am worried it will be too uniform and bland. Have you done country white on select? What were your thoughts?

    It will be more uniform. Yes, we've applied country white to select floors. It will look good if you get the right person to do it, don't worry.! Select is beautiful wood.

    Do you have any photos of Minwax Pickled Oak applied to white oak floors?

    What finish of the Bona was used? Satin, semi glass or extra matte?

    Hi! Loving these floors! I just tried country white and they felt slightly too white. My flooring guy suggested 2 parts white mixed with 1 part paint thinner for a slightly more natural look. What do you think about that? Is paint thinner bad? Also, which finish? Satin?

    i would mix dura seal neutral with the country white. neutral will tone down the white. try 1-1 first because that's the easiest ratio to mix. stay away from the paint thinner is my advice.

    @Valenti Flooring - how would you compare 50% country white / 50% neutral to 1 coat of Bona Nordic Seal ?

  • 5 years ago

    @Valenti Flooring, what do you think of this mix? 3 parts country white with 1 part neutral

  • 5 years ago

    Hi! My installer did 2 coats of Nordic Seal today. 1 coat in the morning and 1 coat in the afternoon. They're supposed to start the finish tomorrow morning and it is Bona MEGA clear. Do you think there is any major issue with this?

    Hi Jenn, no.. i dont think there is any reason to be concerned. The bona products dry very quickly. if they are familiar with these products it will be fine.

    Thanks so much for your advice! Do you think it’s worth adding a coat of HD Traffic over the 2 coats of Mega Clear? Also, peeked my head through front door today and saw this. What do you think this white mark is??

    job looks good

    looks like something got stuck in the finish

    they can remove it.

    traffic hd is great as a top coat but it does cost more, so perhaps check with your flooring professional about cost increase to do that. it's fine over mega clear.
