White Pine Floor


Hello
I am wondering how much a white pine floor will yellow over the years. The kitchen cabinets are cherry and I dont want the floors to get that yellow look after 5 years. Id like to keep the floors as close to natural in color as possible. Thanks for your help

Use a water based poly and they shouldn't yellow that much if at all.

Ditto on the water base. I would at least stain it with a natural stain before applying the water base otherwise it's just too white IMO. But if that is what you want then knock yourself out.
