Friends have just purchased and are going to re-do the pine wood floors and
asked what they should use as a finish.

There's only one finish I'd use - an acid-cure formaldehyde resin.
Easy to work with, cured and hard in only a few hours, but it stinks
like a goat farm while you're working with it (full-face mask). Use
3 coats.

I did use wax once. Even in a bedroom it just wasn't hard-wearing
enough, even if you power-buff it.
