Hi all,
I have an engineered oak floor (3.6mm wood layer I think) which has been down for 6 years and is now scratched all over, fairly badly in places.
I've sanded proper old oak floorboards before and have got on well with the drum sander but I'm not sure about using one of those on this thin layer of wood. I found something on a hire website described as a 're-finish sander, ideal for thin veneered overlays' which sounds perfect but I just wondered if anyone had experience with these? (it's an orbital sander, weights 43kg and looks quite hefty).
Does anyone have any recommendations for sanding engineered wood floors? My brother-in-law is a carpenter and his only advice was 'don't' :)
Many thanks, Marc
