I just refinished my red oak hard wood floors and noticed a couple problem areas that look like smears. I am not sure if they are smears caused by dragging my knees as I was wiping out the stain or if they were caused by the edge sander.
How can I fix this? There are currently 2 coats of stain and I think some of the marks were present prior to the second coat.
Can I lightly sand to remove the marks? Do I have to go to bare wood? If so, will the border of the stain match when I try and re-stain the problemed spot?
Any advice would be appreciated!!!
