	I enthusiastically second this recommendation.  They repaired deep
stains in our existing white oak hardwoods with beautiful inlays, added
600 sq/ft of white oak plank for the kitchen and den, and finished
the above with tung oil and wax.  We had our upstairs hardwood floors 
refinished with polyurethane (water based) a few months before we discovered 
Blind Nail.  As we compare the difference in the two refinishing methods
every day polyurethane continues to disappoint us, while our appreciation 
of tung oil and wax continues to grow.


	BTW, since it's time to rewax, does anyone know where one can buy 
a floor buffer specifically designed for waxing?   The only ones I've
been able to find are in combination with carpet/uphostery shampooers,
and remind me of Rube Goldberg contraptions.
