Finish Gloss Levels

Matte - Little to No Shine, When sunlight or direct light hits the floor it will look like a "light" spot versus having reflect 

Satin - Low Shine, When sunlight hits the floor there will be reflect, but still matte in areas without direct light 

Semi-Gloss - Medium all-over Shine, Great option for those who light a little bit of gloss without the "wet" look

Full Gloss - Highest Shine, Think Basket Basket Ball Court or Bowling Lane - Very beautiful, but can make scratches more noticeable due to the high reflect 

Oil-based vs Water-based Finish

Pros:

1. Has a "thicker appearance" - more rich vibrant coat

2. Oil Finish has an Amberizer which brings out wood tones

3. If the stain is too light, Oil Finish can be used to darken or make the stain appear more "rich"

Cons:

1. Takes 12-24 hours to dry each coat

2. Has more of an odor when first applied 

3. More susceptible to UV rays, which can make floor darken/yellow after a long period of time 


Pros:

1. Water Finish is completely clear/transparent - will not darken or yellow over time 

2. Takes 2-4 hours to dry each coat

3. Little to no odor when applied 

4. Less susceptible to UV rays

Cons:

1. Has a "thinner" appearance (same durability as Oil just a different look)

2. Can not darken the tone of the floor and does not bring out wood tones
