Step 2: Applying oil, varnish or stain

After the preparation, it's time to choose between parquet oil or varnish and stain to protect your wooden floor. Here are the next steps:

Consider whether you want your parquet to retain its natural look with oil or varnish, or whether you want to give it a subtle colour with stain.
Apply the oil, varnish or stain evenly to your parquet with a brush. Take your time and ensure you apply an even coat.
Let the oil or stain dry completely. The varnish should definitely fully harden as well. Patience is essential here.
Don't forget to finish with a clear varnish when using a wood stain.

And that's it! With these simple steps, you're ready to make your parquet shine. Good luck with your project!
