I have Bruce prefinished flooring. I am having the ceiling painted.
Painter was very careful covering floor using paper taped together. Most
tape was taped to paper but at some points the blue masking tape was
attached to hardwood floor. In 2 places, even though tape was only attached
for a few hours and the house was about 75 degrees temperature, the sun must
have been hitting the tape thru the window for hours and the adhesive
reacted with the floor and ruined the finish. I was wondering if anyone had
run into this before. Floor is about 10 years old and althought I was
hoping to go a few more years before refinishing it now I guess I will have
to get it done now unless a reasonable spot finish can be done. Damaged
areas are about 1 foot long by 2 inches wide. I am planning on contacting
the tape manufacterur and bitching though I am sure that is a waste of time.
