Help! I just had my floors redone by a pro. I just moved back in and noticed in certain light I can see some swirl marks. I can also see some streaking. My floors are white oak with a coffee/ebony mix stain.
I had a glitza finish on them. Is this fixable without having to move out again? Or is this normal with such dark floors?

This has been addressed many times. If you can only s ee it in reflective light then it passes. Floors are not to be expected to look like a piano finish.

Thanks Steve, Then I guess it passes. Don't really want to move out again! Thank you.

yea your floors are technically acceptable that doesnt mean I wouldnt make the contractor aware of it because its really something you can avoid and although it doesnt constitute being redone it may get you a free/discounted maintence coat a few years down the road. Acid cure urathane is one thing I dont know that much about other than the basics, it stinks to high heven, it wears like lead and has a nice rich look when done right.
