As we move away from the dark,dark,black floors(finally,lol). And we move towards the new gray colors,another popular option is what I refer to as the “raw” wood look. For decades after I sand the stain off the floor a customer will see the raw wood and exclaim “I love this can we keep them this light?” Well until just recently even with no stain the floors would take on a honey type color,oil base,or a little bit lighter tone with water base finishes. But the manufacturers have gone to work in there lab and are producing new sealers that almost totally eliminate any color brought on by the poly finish. These colors are absolutely AMAZING,and the customer can decide just how white they want to go with additional coats of the sealer with the white additives. In the past we stained the floor white,but that put white into the grain and had a pickled type look. These finishes have the white without the white grain. And as in this floor,it was existing and was red oak,which tends to turn pink with this process,as white oak is preferable. But with an additional step Route 66 has brought back from the past,even red oak can be made to have the “look” of raw white oak wood. If your ready to bring your floor into the modern trend give Route 66 a call. Estimates are,as always free. Call or feel free to text to 918-740-1155 and schedule your appointment,and get on our books to transform that dark room into this beautiful new world.

These new natural colors that mimic the raw wood color of the species has such an incredible look. For years customers have stated after I stripped off their old stain color how they wish their floors could be that light, well now they can. Give Route 66 a call or text and let’s move your old dark floors into the modern future.

Another beautiful job by RT 66 Custom Wood Floors. This is a gorgeous 5” Hickory, finished with the new “Natural” sealer that duplicates the actual raw nature of the wood. I’ve always been asked if we could keep the wood looking like it does raw, now we can with these new modern finishes. This job was half pre-existing wood, our challenge was to bring in new hickory that matches 15 year old hickory. Getting the grade close can be a challenge and this one came out great. Another challenge was all the existing wood was very crowned (unlevel) from poor acclimation. So trying to get it flat right up against the wall can be difficult as well. So zoom in and check out the trim, keeping the trim clean is one of our pet peeves, especially when the trim was just painted before we arrived. I absolutely love this floor. If you want to make some changes and brighten up your dark home, do away with that out of date black floor and step into the future with Route 66 Custom Wood Floors 918-740-1155

The latest from the craftsmen at Route 66 Custom Wood Floors. This amazing 5” white oak floor is finished in the latest technology. These new finishes are designed to duplicate the look of “raw” wood. For years when doing samples a customer will comment “I just love the floor the way it looks now” that is,with no finish. Oil base tends to turn the wood a bit honey color,water base finish goes a step lighter, but still adds color. This new product is intended to go one step beyond that,keeping as close to the natural look of the unfinished wood. I absolutely love this new product,combined with this beautiful white oak,graded with just enough knots to bring out some natural beauty.
