I am going to start refinishing our hardwood floors (were covered with carpet) this weekend. Ideally I would like to get the entire house done in one shot, but without being able to move all of our stuff out and stay somewhere else this will not happen. I was curious if it would be a problem to sand the entire house and stain the entire floor but only finish half of it? The finish we are using is bona traffic (supposedly good for high traffic, i.e. pets) and it says to try and keep traffic to a minimum for 3 days. So my thought is to sand the entire floor, to save from having to rent the sander twice, and just do the finishing on half of the house this weekend. I guess my question is whether or not it would be a problem to just have half the floors stained for a week or so until we can move all the stuff to previously finished rooms and do the remaining floor. Thanks in advance for any help.
