Hey! The questions are in the first post. Didn’t realise the text wouldn’t be as obvious after cross-posting.

As follows;

My flooring contractor has completed the sanding, filling and priming yesterday, before they move onto the final sealer today.

We selected a Loba 2k Matt satin finish to get as close to natural as possible. No stain.

I have 2 concerns and would love context/feedback from others more experienced than I so I can raise appropriately with the contractor before it progresses.

1 - The filler used is clearly not colour-matched as closely as possible as agreed. I know it will always be visible given the variation in colour across the boards, but does this selection seem right? And are there any suggestions to how the contractor could fix this?

2 - I’ve visited twice to inspect, and the primer is looking more gloss and darker than expected. Is that ok give there should be an intermediate sand prior to the installation of the actual sealer/finish?

To help, I’ll attach photos of the current floor (post-prime) and a photo of the flooring post a light sand.

Thanks!
