If you select Tri Point Flooring as your hardwood flooring contractor, you will have the option to pre-select three Bona stain colors to sample on your floor. On day one of your floor refinishing operation, during our dustless sanding process we will apply all three stain colors on a small area of your floor. This is an excellent opportunity to see the stain colors you think you might like in your home under your true lighting. From experience, this is the best way to choose a stain color before committing to staining your entire floor.


For active homes or commercial settings, we recommend our 5 coat sanding & refinishing package. There is an additional cost, but it is well worth it because of the extra protection on your hardwood flooring. This process will also add an additional work day.


Stain Water Popping


Using water to pop the grain is a cool way to achieve more unique colors. This technique allows more stain to penetrate giving you a deeper, richer color every time. We recommend water popping your dark brown and black hardwood floor stain colors to achieve the beautiful saturated look.


Although water popping takes more time and money to complete it’s the only way to achieve this deep saturated look often associated with pre-finished hardwood floors. In the picture below you can see a dark and light contrast of the same stain color. Obviously the darker hardwood floor stain colors are water popped. Which do you prefer?


NEW University Stain Colors

  • Carolina Blue
  • Duke Blue
