I varnished my pine floorboards about 10 years ago. The clear Ronseal varnish reacted with the wood to produce an nice Victorian pine finish (very similar to this one http://www.lassco.co.uk/typo3temp/e...032051185380189/LPN701_detail_large_thumb.JPG ). Some of my floorboards have been damaged so I recently sanded sections of my wooden floor. Unfortunately, the newly varnished floorboards looked a lot lighter in color (light pine wood color). It's the same floorboards in both cases.
I am assuming that I got a different color finish because I used different varnishes although both were clear Satin varnish for wooden floors. Ten years ago, I used a clear satin Ronseal varnish but it looked clear in the tin. I used Ronseal Diamond Hard Floor Varnish (polyurethane based) this time round but the varnish looks milky in color.
Unfortunately, i don't know what varnish I used 10 years ago but I'm hoping that I can figure it out with your help. I'd like to get it to achieve a similar color finish when I varnish the newly sanded sections of my floor. I will be grateful for your advice.
