Hi,
I have just repaired and sanded 105sqm of pitch pine parquet. Considering how badly damaged it was, it has come up really well. However, after finishing with hard wax oil, it has gone a bit dark and orangey. Is there any way to avoid this? I have included a picture of a sanded, untreated floor which has a nice light colour, and a picture of the treated floor. Any help much appreciated.
Am a bit pushed for time as all the repairing loose blocks and gap filling was a big job. May have to just live with the colour, but would prefer a more natural, light look.
