The last steps in finishing the floor are applying a sealant and two coats of polyurethane. Forty-five minutes after applying the coat of sealant, we put down the first coat of polyurethane. Then 18 hours after we applied the second coat.
You can see a big difference just with the coat of sealant.
Actually, the final step is patience. The polyurethane needs time (recommended 72 hours) to cure and harden before you can walk on it and then even more time (recommended 2 weeks) before you can put any rugs or furniture on it.
We can hardly believe it's the same floor we started with a few weeks ago. What a huge difference! One more week of curing time and we can move in.
Next step: Closet organizers.
