Our recommendations for floor finishes depend on the desired emphasis on the wood's characteristics. If you want to darken the wood color, we recommend using oil-based polyurethane or naturally derived oxidizing oils. However, be aware that the topcoat polymer might make scratches more visible.
To emphasize brighter wood tones, we recommend using polyurethane lacquer. Since Sucupira wood is quite dark, hard wax oil should not be used because white scratches will be easily visible, making the floor look unattractive. Additionally, the thin film coating commonly used for oak should not be used for Sucupira wood flooring.
