Tip 3

Choosing the right lacquer is all important as it could mean the difference between having to do re-sand in 2-3 years as opposed to 15 years. So if you choose the wrong lacquer expect to be re-sanding your floor 5 times earlier than if you don’t. Ok so a cheap lacquer from B&Q may cost from £25 for 2.5ltrs, well believe it or not you can buy quality lacquers like Junckers or Bona for nearly the same cost, here’s the catch you have to buy 5ltrs but if you buy Junckers this can cost less than £50 and you can rest assured that you won’t have to re-sand your floors for many years to come.
