Can the pro series be used on bamboo flooring?

Yes - it is actually recommended for bamboo floors according to the company that installed mine. http://www.calibamboo.com/cleaning-bamboo-flooring.html

I don't think so. I only use it for my kitchen linoleum floor. Didn't like the results on my hardwood floors.

Yes you can use this gun on 5/8 Bamboo flooring. I've personally used this gun on flooring as thin as 5/16" but have not gone any thicker than 5/8". I would not suggest using it on 3/4" flooring however. This gun is perfect for engineered products, thinner depth hard woods or certain laminates. On a 3/4" flooring best to upgrade to a heavy duty flooring gun.

check with the floor manufacturer, they may say it will void any warranty. I used these on 9/16" bamboo and it worked very good. The only jams were because of user error. Tip for you "if you use the cleats and one does not go all the way in because of a screw nail..etc.. use a pair of needle nose and bend the cleat back and forth and it will break off rather than trying to set it with a punch.

I addressed this same issue with our flooring installer. My understanding is that the Pro Series is a bit more concentrated and works better at eliminating the dirt and build-up on the hardwoods. I read the other answer and I would disagree with the harder finish comment. We have Brazilian Walnut floors and part of the reason this is the only product recommended by our installer is because it does not leave a residue or finish on the floor. It simply eliminates the dirt and lets the natural beauty of the wood come through. I'm likely giving you more information than you want, but if I could make a suggestion that will save you some frustration. Run a little broom vacuum or Swiffer over your hardwoods prior to using your Bono. Hope this helps!

This is a solid tool for flooring and waay cheaper than renting. Heavy! Will put a flooring nail (kinda chunky, min 1-1/2 long or 2" std), through the tougue and groove into subfloor at about 45'. I imagine this will work fine with any tongue and groove assembly 3/4 thick including tongue and groove bamboo. Not the tool for large 4'x8' bamboo sheets. The nails offered as "buy with" BOSTITCH FLN-200 2-Inch Flooring L-Nail, 1000-Per Box would be fine, I tend to also use a generous dose of flooring adhesive to ensure creaks don't start in the future also. Make sure your sub floor is solid and soundly fixed to joists underneath. The flatter the better ! Supplied with air hose conn and mallet let me know if you would be interested to buy a slightly used unit! Still in exc condition.

I use mine on my Pergo brand faux hardwood floors and it works great! It doesn't leave behind streaks nor little puddle of water.

It removed the polish that was caked on my beautiful bamboo floors. I found that using it full strength in a very small area works the best. I had to apply the remover with mop pad and constantly keep it wet for it to work! It is the only thing that worked for my floors.

i used it on 5/8" pre-finished bamboo flooring and it did not put scratches on it

The answer to your question is yes, under certain conditions. The PROXXON 37020 DB 250 MICRO WOODTURNING LATHE is a very light machine and will benefit from being attached to a stable surface. In addition, it is low torque and constructed of light material, and does not do well when wood tuning bits are used on any material are being turned. However, you can achieve this task, if a soft type of wood is used, along with working down the shape with graduated grits of sandpaper. The answer to your question is still yes, just don't use hardwoods and don't get in a hurry with this particular machine. Lastly, this lathe is absolutely perfect for my situation and the folks at MICRO-MARK MARK are very good to work with.

I also have hard wood floors and very happy with the performance on them. I would think it would work fine on your bamboo floor.

I have used Black Diamond on real Oak hardwood floors and laminated floors. The label says: Use on all polyurethane finished wood floors and all brands of laminated wood floors. Have not used on Bamboo, but the tool free number on the bottle is 1-888-922-8282. Think I would give them a call. I wouldn't use anything else&gt; LOVE this product!

Yes, this is what I bought for my wood flooring... just been to lazy to install it yet... oops. Great products though! I have used them before.

Yes. I really like mine and use it on laminate wood floor that is not as durable as bamboo. No problem with scratching.

I think its only for wood floors. It has a squigee on the bottom not the usual bristles

Yes, very. I would recommend getting the Meinl Synthetic Didge instead of the bamboo.
