I was thinking of putting an antique glaze on our new red Oak hardwood floors. Is this ok or do they really have to be stained. My wife and I antique our kitchen cabinets and they turned out really great and now we want the floors to be the same.

Thanks

As we don't know the chemical formulation of your "antigue glaze", it's difficult to say whether you can use it on floors. I believe glazes come in solvent and water based formulations and are not designed to be a protective coating for floors so you will need to apply a floor finish over your glaze. Compatability is the key here; as is appearance. My suggestion: make test sample boards. talk to the glaze manufacturer re: their suggestions for a floor application and a protective coating (floor finish). They will have the best answers for you.
