How to Staining the Floor with Hoover Steamvac Carpet Cleaner

Decide if you want to stain the floor or if you would prefer to leave the floor natural in tone, in which case you can move on to applying a finish. Brush the floor clear of all sawdust from the sander using a broom.

Use a shop vacuum or a tack rag to pick up even finer dust. The cleaner the floor at this stage, the better your finish will look in the end. Open the windows to ventilate the area. Apply some stain with a rag to a corner of the floor or the back of a closet to check that the color is the one you want. Wait 5 minutes for the stain to dry. When you’re satisfied with the color, you’re ready to continue.

Apply a first coat of stain to the rest of the floor. Use a brush if you want to apply heavier, darker coats (smooth out with a rag). If you want lighter, more controlled applications, use only rags to work in the stain. Apply with long, even strokes, going with the grain. Allow the first coat to dry. If necessary, apply a second coat, or touch up light spots.

Make sure the floor is completely dry before you apply finish. Stir the container of polyurethane finish; shaking the mix will create air bubbles that show up in the final finish. Apply polyurethane with a brush or roller, using smooth, even strokes with the grain to avoid marks in the finish. Allow the finish to dry; this will take about 3 hours depending on the brand.

Finishing the Floor. Add a second coat. Allow the final coat to dry overnight at the least, and up to 3 days before moving furniture or rugs back on the floor.
