White washing wooden floor

    I'm renovating my home office at moment and have ripped up the old carpet

    I've decided to white wash the boards, once I get them all cleaned up etc
    There are a few with cracks & warps and will need fixing first, but once done I will get stuck in

    Just wondering what kind of paint is typically used for white washing floors?

    Also what kind of protective goes over it?

    As it will have a chair rolling on it a lot I want it to be durable

    Any other tips aswell would be helpful

    Thanks

    After you have it sanded there is a white floor stain used to colour it to your desired tone .
    Apply 3 coats of non yellowing lacquer over it and roll away!
    Look at wrg.ie and there is a sanding/lacquer section there with colours and finishes!
