Regional Instructor Demo - Sanding a Custom Parquet Pattern (Room W 222)

This session explores the sanding process for parquet floors featuring multi-directional patterns and mixed wood species.

The class covers machine selection, grit progression, edge work techniques, and methods for blending transitions across directional changes.
