Is it really necessary to sand a hard wood floor before polishing?
I have a hard wood floor that I would like to polish, but I am too lazy to do the sanding. The floor doesn't look that bad. There are a few stains here and there. Will it look bad if I polish it without sanding?
I'm assuming you're going to be using some type of wax and/or varathane/eurathane type coating. If you were to use these methods and not sand off the existing coating it will look blotchy, and obviously the stains wouldn't go away (in some cases, they go darker when polished). I highly recommend doing even a light sanding to even out the texture on the floor, and the rough finish gives the top coat something to adhere to.
