Can I use the dark paste on light color wood floors

I wish I had some dark paste, because I have dark colored floors. I've been using the light paste on mine. But my guess is, unless you have serious scratches on your light floor, the dark paste shouldn't affect your color. It would only do that if there was a scratch to penetrate. Otherwise, it's just a wax finish

Yes, I did. It will darken it a little, especially in a scratch. I was unable to find a light color wax.

On one order, the dark Bruce was sent by mistake and we tried a small area on our light oak floor. It was not pretty at all, in fact, ugly. If you want to darken your light floor, find another product. I would suspect that you would need to sand and then apply a stain. BUT, DO A TRIAL AREA FIRST!

We use it on our solid oak floors. It is basically colorless after buffing, only leaving a "glow". Have had no problems.

I would likely use Minwax or polyurethane, both in the paint dept. of Home Depot, or could get through Amazon. Polyurethane will give you a higher gloss finish.Why I used this >> was to stain kitchen and bath cabinets darker that were '80's oak'. I then used this topcoat over the base gel stain.

I have dark and glossy wooden flooring (Santos Mahogany) in my house. I regularly use Roomba to vacuum them, and I do not get any scratches on my floor.

I wouldn't unless the floor was teak. It is used on unfinished wood and it can darken it.

Hi, can Quick Shine be used on urethaned hardwood floors? I read somewhere not to use wax on this type of finish.

I do not have hard wood floors. I have a laminate. And I have not moved the bed too heavy, to look for discoloration.

I'll call it beige. It darkens as it drys. Not a common wood color. In my experience, it didn't pick up the color of the stain. I was using an oil based stain. In the end, it's not that noticeable as the floor I was refinishing has a lot of, um, character, so these imperfections don't really jump out. I was hoping that since I didn't buy a color matched product it would at least have taken some of the color of the stain.

I didn't want a hard finish on my old hardwood floors as the shine showed every flaw. I used this wax which gave it a hard finish but a beautiful mellow glow. It is easy to use. Pour a little and rub it with a damp cloth in the direction of the grain. Then I give it a quick rub with a dry cloth. I really like it. I didn't like the Johnson's One Step Acrylic.

There are several color choices. The Java is a good one to darken lighter items already stained. I used this on staircase railing to change the color from a golden oak to more of a walnut.

Yes, I actually sanded and stained mine a much darker reddish color to match our floors, worked great.

I assume you are talking about scratches to a real hardwood floor. Well it also depends how deep the scratches are. If you have an old floor then you probably have a darkened floor due to wax buildup. If the scratches have just gone thru that then you can do either of two things 1) keep putting you floor cleaner on and more so over the scratches, over a period of time it too will buildup and darken and cover the scratches. 2) Use Simple Green and rub the wax around the scratches and blend it in to the rest of the floor. Simple Green works like a slow acting wax remover so you will have time to blend it. If the scratches have gone thru the finish and are down into the wood then you have to start matching up wood stain with the color of the rest of the floor. All of these are more art then anything else..it's trial and error. Usually dogs and hardwood don't match well. A dog is better suited to a tile floor. But if that is what you have and scratches are a concern, you will eventually become a pro at this.

Depends on how hard you want to work. A Paste Wax is great when you are really feeling ambitious. Liquid Wood Floor Polish is good for a quick fix. I Love My Koblenz!

When in doubt, always go light. You may be sorry if you do anything any darker. The dark stains any grain too dark for light wood. (For me anyway.) I would suggest trying Howard's Restore-a-finish in Golden Oak. Won't change the color at all and gives a beautiful finish, but is a little more than just a spruce-up shine. This is wonderful stuff. Maybe your lumber company will have a sample. I bought mine through Amazon as I was already familiar with product. Good Luck.

Yes. I have 90 year old mahogany floors that are unfinished. I stripped the old wax off the floors then applied new stain to the floors followed by Rejuvenate. It smooths out the imperfections in the old floor and looks great. It is holding up quite well but I did notice that dripping anything acidic on the floor (vinegar, lemon/lime juice) leaves a small whitish spot on the floor. I assume this is due to the liquid reacting with the Rejuvenate.

No. You need to put highlight or bleach. This is a color glaze toner. No color deposits on dark brown.

I agree with others. Too slick for finished floors. Great for wall wood work and furniture. Can make scratches "disappear"
