Dear Peter,

Excellent video!
Many thanks, now I can convince my girlfriend that this
really is a job we can manage ourselves in our new house so the £5 for
your film has saved us poor over-stretched first-time buyers £100s!
Thanks again,
Mike Ward 27/7/07

Many thanks for quick and efficient delivery. The DVD is great, just need
to put it into practice! but very well explained and demonstrated.

Thanks a million. P Fitzgerald 15/4/06

Just wanted to say 'thank you' Peter. Our floors were finished in time for
christmas and look great. The spectra varnish is like liquid silk, it's so
easy to use and the finish is fantastic. We've recommended your website
and videos to all of our friends.
Many thanks,
Linda Gill.

Peter,
I downloaded both your films last week and found both very informative. I sanded our living room floor about five years ago and I wish I'd seen them both before doing that job. The varnish is now starting to wear in places, so I have decided to sand it again. I didn't fill any gaps last time because I didn't know of a good way of doing it. Now, thanks to you, I do.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for a great video on Floor sanding and Gapping, excellent confidence builder watching someone actually do it.
I have one question, I have been trying to find 2mm MDF but no luck, I tried Homebase but the lowest they go is 3mm, any pointers on where I could locate some, if I cant use that is there any other sheet material I could use?
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards
Jay Akhtar

Peters answer was:
Hi Jay, 2mm mdf, I am having the same problem. Since making the films Homebase no longer stock it. Some timber yards will order it for you but I don't know of any that stock it. I shave down a 3mm strip and use that or Lecol filler for the thin gaps.

Hi Peter,
Just like to say thank you for taking the time out to contact me this afternoon, gave me a great deal of confidence in the task at hand which so far is going great, the gapped floor is coming along really nice, hopefully should start the sanding on Wednesday.
Thanks again.
Best regards Jay

QUESTION

Dear Mr Weller
Firstly I would like to congratulate you on having the best floor sanding advice I have found anywhere on the internet. I will shortly be downloading the videos to help guide me through the process.
I wish to stain my floor. The boards date back to the 1930 and have a good colour but I would like to darken them down a little. I found a picture on your site of the ideal finish and have pasted it below
.
I hear what you say about this being a job for the professionals but would still prefer to tackle this staining myself. My questions are as follows.
(1) It seems that you have used a walnut/oak stain on this floor. Can you tell me the name of the stain you have used and can you supply it to me?
(2) Can you give me any tips or advice to aid me in this process.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards David Innes

REPLY
Hi David,
The colour of the floor you mention was achieved by using 2 stains mixed together, Walnut and Dark Oak. I did this because I find that the colour of stains if used straight from the tin can be too bright. I wanted to use Walnut to give some 'warmth' to the floor but the colour was too red. By adding Dark Oak it reduced the redness but kept the warmth. The mix was approx 3 parts walnut, 1 part oak. The final colour was then diluted by about 50% because it was too dark. I used a spirit stain, dilutes with white spirit, and I think it was made by Rustins.

You will need:
plenty of rags or j-cloths.
Rubber gloves
A 1" brush
Roller tray
Black bags

The floor should be stained in one continuous process without a break. The work is best done by 2 people. Plan where you are going to start and how to work your way out of the room. Spread out a black bin bag and put the tray on it and pour in the stain.
The stain is applied with a rag working along 2-3 boards. Apply quite liberally and work at a brisk pace. 1 person applying, the other coming along behind a minute later wiping off the excess. Use the brush along skirting's and around pipes etc. You may want to mask skirting boards with broad masking tape, they're easily marked. Allow at least 6 hours to dry before varnishing, better overnight if possible.
Regards Peter

Thanks so much Peter I have been experimenting with a few colours and really understand what you mean by too bright. Your reply is excellent and will be of much assistance.
Kind regards David
