Thank you! Repairing and remodeling this house is all about thinking outside the box. I hadn't considered the wear factor of OSB. As far as the finish passing through, I thought I'd try putting urethane on a scrap piece of OSB as a test. The cork I want to use does not require glue. It comes in snap and lock strips, like a floating floor.

The original flooring is possibly fir, probably extensively damaged, and undoubtably covered with next-to-impossible-to-get-off-glue used for the linoleum. Do you think I might be better off ripping up all the layers of flooring and simply sanding the original wood floors? Would you say ripping and sanding would be less labor intensive than the OSB idea?
