The link is at www.mrsandless.com We have several of these in my area, and I wondered what the professionals on this board thought about the service, whether it was a good value, safe to use on ones floors, etc. It sounds almost 'too good to be true', but then again, there are so many new things out there these days (not speaking just floors), I wouldn't be surprised if this was somewhat of a 'wave of the future'!

Yes I have heard of them. What they do is ok for floors with very little wear. However, it does not remove deeper scratches, dings, dents etc. Since they do not sand floors, they will do their recoating process to floors that really should be sanded. Most floors that need restored need to be sanded.

mR sandless is setup for the maintence of wood floors, not the refinishing of wood floors there is a diffrence. Kinda like waxing your car vs painting. They deep clean then top coat the exsiting finish. If your floors have heavy wear or dings dents and scratches it will just coat them with polyurathne not remove them. It will take out some minor stuff, most people just expect too much out of the process. If your floors are just kinda dull and dirty then this is great. if your floor has been under 30 year old pissed on carpet its not going to cut the mustard.

Thanks! That helps tremendously!

Can a pre-finished hardwood with a few 'dings' and 'dents' be 'fixed'? I believe that pre-finished can't be sanded, right? What would my options be??

Normally , a prefinished floor can be sanded . The amount of times depends on the quality of your floor and the wear layer which is the thickness of the wood that is above the tongue .

Any professional can buff and re coat an existing floor. Mr Sandless is simply using their own brand of marketing and advertising. And to the average homeowner, it sounds good.

So your two basic options are to buff as much as possible , remove what scratches can be removed and re coat the floor or completely sand it and start over with new coats of finish.

Do they even screen it?

I was looking into it but found a lot of consumer complaints online. Some probably from high expectations and being over sold. But it is just a recoating system if I understand it correctly. So unless your looking at it as a marketing system I would just stick with normal buff and recoat. If you go to their sight they always have webinars, you could probably get more info that way.
