Light surface marks, footprints, pet scratches, or small flaws that appear during or after floor curing.
Published
What it is
Scratches and imperfections are visible marks, impressions, or small flaws that remain or appear after service.
Signs
- Light surface marks after curing
- Footprints or impressions
- Pet scratches shortly after service
- Existing damage still visible below the finish
How ReCoat handles it
ReCoat explains dry time, cure time, furniture return timing, rug timing, pet traffic, and first-clean instructions before leaving the job. Light surface issues may be polished or recoated depending on the finish and timing.
Why it matters
Dry does not always mean fully cured. Protecting the floor during the early cure window helps preserve the finished result.
