E20 Scandinavian Soaped Floors l Bleaching Wooden Floor

Soaped floors is an age-old Scandinavian wood finishing tradition for flooring and is a great environmental friendly option for treating your floors. By adding linseed oil soap to the floor it reacts with sunlight and turns the wood lighter and lighter, stopping the natural darkening and yellowing of the wood. It takes some effort, but it's worthwhile the process because these types of floors become more beautiful with time. The soap and scrubbing turns the wood dirt repellent and durable. The oil nurtures the wood and lightens it every time you clean it. So if you take care of the floor you never have to treat them again and they can stay like this for hundreds of years. But you need to to scrub them at least once a year with cold water and linseed oil soap. #buildingpreservation #traditionalmethods #craftmanship #hardwoodfloor #softwoodfloor #pinefloor #douglasfir #swedish
