After you have finished preparing your floorboards you need to think about draughts. If you can live with the draught that comes up between the gaps in your floorboards then leave. But it makes much more sense to seal the gap to stop cold draughts and keep your heating bills down. Finally, adding an extra coat of your chosen paint or a clear matt varnish can give your floorboard paint a longer life. What's the Best Floor Paint? While a small hand sander or orbital sander can be useful for preparation, if you have a large space with previously painted or stained floorboards, you'll likely need to hire a drum sander for sanding floorboards properly.

The Rust-Oleum Chalky Finish Floor Paint is water-based with virtually no odour and give an extremely durable smooth matt finish. Drying Time: Touch dry in 1 hour. Handle after 4 hours. Apply a second coat after 4 hours, if necessary. Full hardness after 4 hours.Free sachet delivery is available on all Rust-Oleum sachets. These are shipped direct from the manufacturer using Whistl. Can take 5-10 working days.

This will depend on a number of factors including how well the floorboards were prepped, what paint was used and how much traffic the floor can expect. But a rough estimation is around two years. Obviously, a floor that is well prepped and painted and has low traffic will last longer. And even after a couple of years you are unlikely to need to repaint the whole floor, just the areas that get a lot of use. AStain Removal: Remove any stains promptly, most common stainse.g. dirt, ketchup, mustard, tea, coffee can be removed using a softcloth and warm soapy water. Do not use scourers or abrasive cleanersas these may mark the paint finish. Preparation: For best results, ensure surface is clean and free from wax or oil. If wax has been used clean the surface thoroughly with white spirit. We recommend that bare wood, previously painted or varnished surfaces should be sanded before painting.
