Coming out beautiful!
Mixed up 2 gallons of Bona Traffic HD Extra Matte for this one.
In my experience, Extra Matte is the best choice over Bona NaturalSeal when the goal is a truly natural-looking hardwood floor. And don’t let the word “matte” fool you—there’s still a subtle sheen, especially when you’re looking across the floor toward a room with natural light coming through the windows.
That’s exactly what makes this combination work so well.
The goal of the NaturalSeal look is to make the floor appear almost unfinished—as if it were freshly sanded—while still giving the wood the protection of a professional finish.
Natural-looking doesn’t mean dull. It means letting the wood be the star!!!!
