Before I go crazy is there a good product or technique I can use to
clean hardwood floors of caked-in sheetrock dust? I'm sure a stiff
brush would clean it out, but hands and knees scrubbing is my last
resot.

Thanks,

Call ServiceMaster or some such place that does industrial/commercial
cleaning. They almost always do home cleaning too, but may not advertise it.
These people deal with this all the time since contractors usually call on
them to do just this kind of work after a major renovation or new
construction, just prior to handing over the building to the owner.

Thanks for the info folks.

As a side note, any of it will scrape up if I scratch at it with my
fingers. I definately SHOULD have covered the floors, would of made
life a lot easier. It didnt' occur to me to cover sincei t was "dust".
I thought it would just a make mess that would be vacuumed and mopped
up. They are solid hardwood floors, but I'm not sure of the finsih. It
is NOT the thick glossy finish I've seen in some houses. It appears to
be a stain or very thin flat finish.

Thanks,
Justin
