Floor finishing questions
I'll combine two questions in one thread--these come from suggestions made by folks in a previous thread I started.
1. Can anyone recommend a commercial floor sander that is good at collecting dust and that can be rented? I think the flooring guy my contractor uses has the old style that I think is a drum sander with a vacuum bag, but supposedly there are newer ones that are better at collecting dust. I'd even be willing to pay extra to rent it to keep things cleaner.
2. On the advice of many here, we've opted for a water-based poly for the floors. Any recommendations? Any to avoid?
Thanks,
Rob
RE:Floor finishing questions
I've never posted here before, but my wife and I put in two rooms of flooring during the spring. We used a rented drum sander, which did a good job of collecting dust. Just empty often. We put up plastic to help keep the dust out of other areas.
Then we used Bona Mega water based. Very nice stuff. Be sure to order the applicators. My wife put down the finish and she said the applicators made all the difference.

Bona finish... where are you guys getting it?
I was under the impression that Bona sells only to professional flooring guys. Where are you buying the stuff?
Sorry to side-jack.
