Hello, I am getting ready to install about 400 square feet of oak flooring. My question is on pore (grain) filler: do I need to use it? I want the job done right -is this something most pros would do if they were called in to finish a floor? I've used pore filler on some furniture I've built but like the simplicity (and more natural feel) of not using it. Any big negatives if I don't use it- will it look unprofessional? trap dirt etc? I've even been cosidering a waterlox finish( a later forum post)
-will pore filler work under this? thanks as always, Jason
