THE TRUMAN STORYBOOK
First: make sure the floor is a good candidate.
Illustrated demonstration · not actual project photos
01 · CHECK THE FLOOR
A great result starts with a closer look.
Hey, let's take a closer look at screen and recoat. First, Courtney checks the existing finish, wear, and anything left behind by cleaning products. The floor needs to be a good candidate before the work begins.
✓Assess the finish and clean away contaminants.
Look closer: Compatibility comes first
Existing finish, contamination and wear determine the right preparation. Wax or residue may need separate removal. Deep wood damage can require a different service.

LESSON 02 · DO I NEED FULL SANDING?
Dull finish? Look a little deeper.
When the wood is sound and the finish is suitable, a recoat may refresh the floor without sanding back to bare wood.
Worth assessing for recoatingDull finish, surface wear, or light finish scratches.
Needs a closer lookExposed wood, deep damage, adhesion problems, or a major color change.
LESSON 03 · THE UV DIFFERENCE
Light on. Life back.
Meet the finish that gets its full cure from light. Watch Courtney’s animated UV story below.

First, the compatible coating dries. Then proper UV exposure cures RadCoat. After the complete system is cured and Courtney gives the all-clear, the room can return to normal use. Follow Truman’s job-specific furniture, rug and pet instructions.

Once the coating is ready, the correct UV exposure cures RadCoat into a durable protective finish.

Light activates the protection.

LOOK CLOSER · THE UV SCIENCE
What does the light do?
UV-reactive finishes contain ingredients that respond to the correct UV light. Tap to see a simplified crosslinking illustration.
This is a concept illustration, not a molecular model. ProCoat RadCoat is designed for UV curing after its required preparation and drying. Ordinary polyurethane does not become a UV system just by shining a light on it.
THE SAME-DAY ADVANTAGE
Less waiting. More being home.
When the complete system is dry, properly cured and cleared by Truman, the room can return to normal use.
↗Furniture returnsLift into place. Use suitable protective felt pads.
▧Rugs feel like homeFollow Courtney’s timing and rug-pad guidance.
♥Welcome back, pawsPets return after the work is complete and cleared.
The cartoon shows a completed, cleared room. People and pets stay out of the work area during UV curing. Furniture moving is arranged separately.

Allow around 5–7 days
Courtney’s planning comparison, not a universal timeline. Repairs, finish systems and cure conditions change the schedule. A one-day application without UV does not mean immediate full cure. Furniture moving is arranged separately.
LESSON 04 · STAY AHEAD OF WEAR
When should I recoat?
5–7 years
Courtney’s usual planning guideline, depending on household traffic. Inspect the finish sooner if wear appears—don’t wait for exposed wood.
QuietEverydayBusy
Everyday living
Use the five-to-seven-year guideline to plan, then let the floor’s actual wear determine when to have it assessed.
