Newly Polyurethaned Floor Giving Off Odor

Question:

What can I use to get rid of the odor from my newly polyurethaned wood floor?

Help. Nanette.

Answer:

Dear Nanette

The odor will persist for about two weeks, but the finish will take up to a month to cure. Keep the area well heated (70 F) and aired out, a fan in the room really helps. Don’t turn your heat down at night, as this will slow the cure time. So be patient, time heals all.
