We have hardwood floors in the front hall, dining room and side hall. The finish is worn, specifically near the front and the slider onto the back deck.

My wife cannot tolerate solvent smells - i.e. polyurethane.

We do not require a polished glossy finish, I would actually prefer a matte / low sheen floor.

I am looking for alternatives to polyurethane that are low odor and durable. I've read some material on refinishing with Tung Oil.

Any feedback on Tung Oil or any other alternatives?
