Plywood Flooring Finish

Better options are available to give a subtle and protective finish.

Plywood flooring finish. Not bad for any finished wood floor. Once your floors are sanded and cleaned it will be time to add some stain. Paintable plywood readily accepts paint and laminate for a unique and customized appearance.

This will open the pores in the plywood and make it better able to accept stain. Pressure treated plywood resists damage from water weather decay and insects. For this stunning diy finish fill and smooth gaps in the plywood subfloor with fast setting drywall compound and a trowel.

Wallpaper as floor paper. It is just super easy to install a planked wood floor using the plywood slats. Think rustic wild west or urban industrial chic rather than old world grandeur.

As important as economy is even more important to me is the way the product is installed. When you add in the other costs excluding labour to finish it the price goes up to just over 2 per square foot. Finish completed plywood floors with the chalky white paint and for added shine treat it up with the minwax polyurethane.

Once you have finished with 100 grit sand the surface again with 150 grit and then 200 grit to smooth the surface. This also opens possibilities to match your flooring to room decors. You can add a simple coat of polyurethane which will leave the floors the lighter color of the plywood but will still give the floors needed protection from liquids falling on them.

Stainable plywood provides an already sanded surface that accepts stain well to create a natural looking finish. A diy plywood floor is specifically suited to those looking for a more rough and ready finish. This next step is very simple and gives the floors a finished look.
