Q: Dear Ron,A while back you did a segment on refreshing and refinishing wood flooring. You mentioned products from Verathane, but I have been unable to find them anywhere, even on the Internet. Can you help me? Our floor has water spot stains from where potted plants were placed and some dull spots. We would like to fix it up.

Thank you in advance for your help.
