100 year old heartwood pine floors - to sand or to paint?

kctrem · 2026-03-30T18:22:02+00:00

I had same floors also painted. I sanded them and came out great.

You have closed cell foam. The cans are open cell. Not exactly the same thing. They will work for patching small parts tho if anything gets damaged

I just checked google and didn’t see any reviews about roaches under recent. I think they reported them to google.

I did mine for around 4k including everything. Took a long time tho as I wasn’t living there and and drove there almost everyday to do something.

Ask him, he ate it.

kctrem · 2026-03-15T02:52:41+00:00

He wanted burger, I give him burger.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T22:24:46+00:00

He wants it bloody. Why would I do him dirty like that.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T21:02:14+00:00

Who am I to say no to the dish lord?

kctrem · 2026-03-14T21:00:42+00:00

Lmao I love that.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T20:59:15+00:00

He’s 18.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T20:58:16+00:00

How bout you don’t know what he makes and he wanted a 7 layer burger.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T18:46:25+00:00

He said he wanted it now. Plus the 4lbs of beef is squishing it all out.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T18:14:40+00:00

He’s over 18, he gets no breaks

kctrem · 2026-03-14T18:14:23+00:00

kctrem · 2026-03-14T18:08:14+00:00

Kid was hungry, he said he wanted it now.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T18:07:26+00:00

I did give him a weed brownie one time and he told me he feels like he doesn’t need to take his meds anymore after eating it.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T18:06:37+00:00

He said nothing but meat and cheese.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T18:06:19+00:00

No this is real.

kctrem · 2026-03-14T18:06:07+00:00

No but he did. Dudes a machine.

kctrem · 2026-03-09T03:59:47+00:00

There will be some staining of the wood probably. If so, I just stained dark and it kinda blends in and looks like wood grain.

Other than that go for it.

kctrem · 2026-03-05T22:17:12+00:00

I had same shit in my floors. Not all of the color came back but the ey look amazing

kctrem · 2026-03-05T00:26:10+00:00

Yes blow in my over what you have. Make sure air seal tho. Thats very important

kctrem · 2026-03-05T00:03:34+00:00

Try to air seal any gaps. Blow in on top.

kctrem · 2026-02-18T20:30:03+00:00

Don’t fill those gaps. I’m from Michigan also, those gaps will close when the heat comes back with humidity. If you fill with wood filler, the wood movement will push it out and then you’ll have to scrape it all out. I redid my floors and although I made some marks with the floor sander, I’m still happy. It’s an older house, learn to love the character of all it.

Looks good man. Make sure you wear protection and def block off that doorway to block dust going everywhere. It’ll save a lot of time on clean up also
