Linseed oil dougfir floor. Help

Yes it will dry out by Christmas 2007. I don't recommend the oil treatments like this for floors but if you luck out with it please let me know.

As far as putting Urethane over it I would say NO WAY If it doesn't work out get the sander back out and start over.

I feel the same way about waxes. In this day and age there are some pretty tough finishes out there. The Pro-Finisher at Home Depot is actually a pretty good finish. It has a high solid content and is fairly inexpensive. Don't let the low price tag fool you into thinking it is a poor finish.

I generally tell people that if they don't have anything better to do with their time than oil, wax and buff their wood floors then they need a hobby.
