1929 Wood flooring The plywood portion of the flooring in 1929 was 5 ply over today's traditional 4 ply. The re-work included stripping away the top loose layer and laminating a new face surface to areas marred or completely missing... The final product was belt sanded, glued and antiqued keeping 98% of the original floor panelling of 1929 intact. The original floor had been painted black we opted for clear por on the original wood.
