Day 87 - June 25, 2003 - Floor finishing


Back to kitchen page ......Previous construction day ......Next construction day

We returned from two days at Chatham on Cape Cod to see the floor after two coats of finish.


Buffing the second coat to rough up the surface for the final coat.


More buffing.


More buffing.


Vacuuming the dust raised by the buffing, using a neat backpack vacuum.


More vacuuming.


Applying the finish.


All done. We can walk on this tomorrow and it will be fully cured after a week.


View towards dining room. Dining room floor is a little more yellow in tone while kitchen floor is a litte on the red side.


In the meantime, I installed a bright halogen 500 watt spot (with a dimmer) that will light up the garden, replacing the spots with the motion detector.


And moved the spots with the motion/light detector to the garage near the driveway - where it might be useful.
