I have Swedish finish on my oak floors. Can I use this product?

Not sure what a Swedish finish is. You can't use it on unsealed, worn or oiled wood floors. The manufacturer says it's safe for any other hardwood. I've only used the product on tile.

I think if you write the company they can tell you...I've used it on our finest antiques with no problem. I use Doozy or Murphy's oil soap wood cleaner on our kitchen cabinets that are oak. Hope this helps!

I would likely use Minwax or polyurethane, both in the paint dept. of Home Depot, or could get through Amazon. Polyurethane will give you a higher gloss finish.Why I used this >> was to stain kitchen and bath cabinets darker that were '80's oak'. I then used this topcoat over the base gel stain.

I have used it on all the furniture and cabinets in the house. I don't think this is what you need for floors. I guess it depends on what type and finish too.

We simply used a wood cleaner on our hardwood floor then applied the Lundmark wax. We too love this wax and recommend it. So easy to use.

I wouldn't unless the floor was teak. It is used on unfinished wood and it can darken it.

I am pretty sure you'd have to sand fiirst. This finish will be a lot different than the original finish. OSMO soaks in rather than sits on the surface like polyurethane. My guess is that the bruce floors are finished with polyurethane. I use this finish on all the furniture I make. It's beautiful

As long as you have a sealed hardwood floor, I say yes. I have been using this product on my sealed oak flooring for 10 years with beautiful, glossy results. Application is very easy with a microfiber pad. I highly recommend this product .

I am assuming this question is referring to "finished" hardwood floors. Yes you can but ofcourse please correct me if I am wrong as everyone here is saying no. The product specifically states on the box it can be used on "finished" wood floors and laminates. The instructions say do not use on "highly worn or unfinished" floors. In addition, this product is the pad not the solution as some of these comments seem to be referring to. If Proctor and Gamble makes a specific solution for wood flooring, which they do, it does not mean all other swiffer solutions cannot be used for wood floors. Part of it is a marketing tool. I hope this helps and makes others look into this answer a little further. I am assuming this question is referring to "finished" hardwood floors.

Use it just the way it is. We have Laminit floors, it didn't make it shine the way I wanted. I like using the Bona for wood floors better.

I called Formby company for you, since their telephone number is on the bottle that I have in front of me. The customer relations advisor said their finish is only for inside furniture. If you want something for exterior wood use a product using teak oil and some of the Minwax finishes can be used outside.

No, it does not give the high shine I was looking for. I first used it straight but it made my floor sticky. Now I use it diluted (1/2 water) and it leaves the floor less tacky (but still is a little). No shine. For hardwood floor, I used to use Pinesol (diluted) and I received many compliments that my floor was shiny. For other surfaces, I find Bona Multisurface works the best and it gives the surface sheen with no stickiness.

I don't know how to answer that question because this product is a cleaner. It says "Specially formulated for all no-wax, urethane finished hardwood and laminate floors." I'm sorry.

Absolutely! My house was built in 1927 and I used it on original hardwood floors. :)

When in doubt, always go light. You may be sorry if you do anything any darker. The dark stains any grain too dark for light wood. (For me anyway.) I would suggest trying Howard's Restore-a-finish in Golden Oak. Won't change the color at all and gives a beautiful finish, but is a little more than just a spruce-up shine. This is wonderful stuff. Maybe your lumber company will have a sample. I bought mine through Amazon as I was already familiar with product. Good Luck.

That is not correct. This is a great product. It will actually preserv the finish on any wooden surface. I've been using it on over 500 pieces of furniture on the company that I work for over 5 years with amazing results!!!
