We bought a house and eventually we want to take the time to fix the floors and finish them off perfectly but due to timing- I just want to clean them up, throw rugs down and then fix them later. The floors are old bull pine- wide blanks- rough and unfinshed- I am guessing at least 100 years old. I think parts of the house are from late 1700s... and it was redone in the 1800s. The people that lived there before us were completely pigs so their is marker, crayons and gunk on the wood. It's a forecloser home- so they trashed it on the way out. Is there anything I can scrub the wood with that will clean them up and make them livable? Eventually we are going to pull up every plank, plane them out and varnish the floors but I just want to get them clean for the timing being.
Thanks!!
