PENETRATING STAINS AND FINISHES
These finishes penetrate the wood to form a
protective seal. The stains soak in to provide
the color, and a wax coating provides a
low-gloss satin sheen. These finishes require
special care, as certain products (water-
based products) should not be used on the
floors.
SHEEN OPTIONS
Choice of sheen is a personal preference,
but it's helpful to keep in mind that high-
gloss finishes show scuffs and scratches
more easily than low-gloss or satin finishes.
High-gloss finishes also reflect more light
and are typically used in commercial set-
tings, while satin finishes are usually favored
for more traditional applications.

EXTRA-DURABLE FINISHES
One of the latest trends in hardwood finish-
es are products designed to extend the life
of the floor and make them extra-durable.
Some manufacturers state that these fin-
ishes are 10 times more durable than other
finishes and can last for up to 25 years.
Swedish finishes and acrylic finishes are
the most popular types of extra-durable
products.
