I just had my floor refinished and failed miserably attempting to be careful while moving the frig back in. The result is that I have scratched the floor in two areas. One area is more of a scuf, but is noticable. The other area, the scratch seems to be deeper. I've read where you can lightly sand the area, mix thinner and poly and apply. I have two questions on this procedure:
- Does it matter if the poly is water based (or water borne - is there a difference)? Can I still mix with thinner?
- Do I need to sand the scratches completely out? Or will the poly fill and hide?
If it helps, the floor is a white oak, with as I said, a water based (or borne) finish.
Thanks!
