Quite often wooden floors are sealed with oil after going through a \"brushing\" process, which  embosses the texture of the wooden surface. Floors with such finish are referred to as \"Brushed \u0026amp; Oiled\"._x000D_\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis type of finish is less durable compared to the lacquer, but allows recoating of your wooden floors.
