The original flooring in my historic (1923) house is red pine, very common in this neighborhood (Fairmont district, Fort Worth TX). We uncovered it a year ago and it looks like most areas were not finished but simply covered. I really like the hand rubbed Matt look and nontoxic aspects of Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus. Would this be a good stain and sealer for these floors?

    For interior floors we would recommend the interior grade product, the Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C Kit.  We are big fans of this product as well for its easy one-coat application and zero VOC.Regarding your red oak, as it sounds like some areas appear unfinished (which implies that some areas have a finish) to get even color throughout we would recommend uniformly sanding everything down to the raw wood.  This extra elbow grease will help translate to a beautiful floor.
