Hello,
Thank you for taking time to consult with us about your hardwood finishing odor problem. This can happen as the polyurethane or the finisher you used outgasses until it if completely dried or cured. You can take the following action to eliminate the harsh hardwood odor from problems quickly and effectively by taking the following action.
Firstly, I would recommend using Smelleze® Reusable Paint Smell Deodorizer Pouches to eliminate the paint odor from the air. For a breath of fresh air, simply place Smelleze® pouches in all rooms or spaces with the bad odor. If you have a HVAC system, you may also place the Smelleze® pouches on your return air vents, and/or in front of the air return duct in your furnace to filter the odors out faster. Overall, use one pouch for every 150 square feet of area treated and smell the difference. You can use additional pouches for areas with severe odors. This is an effective treatment for paint odors that are outgassing slowly since the Smelleze® pouches work continuously 24/7 to eliminate odors which otherwise would be reabsorbed to continue this cycle.
The Smelleze® pouches can be rejuvenated by exposing to direct sunlight for a day or microwaving for 2-3 minutes and reused over and over until all the odors are eliminated. They are engineered to outlast the problem and can be used for years. So they will save you money since you won’t need to any buy replacement pouches.
Secondly, you can sprinkle Smelleze® Natural Chemical Smell Deodorizer Granules on your floor and other furniture to draw the any absorbed paint odor out before it’s released into the air. Allow it to work for at least a few hours or overnight. The longer the better. Then simply vacuum and repeat the treatment, if necessary, until all the odors are removed.
