PLANO, Ill., May 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- With the housing market in a tremendous downturn and people being cautious with their discretionary spending, an inexpensive way to repair a wood floor scratch is invaluable. When it comes to hardwood floors, traditional refinishing can cost $2.50-$4.00 per square foot and take days to finish. A typical open floor plan home can easily cost $5000 or more to refinish the hardwood floors. A more economical and timesaving option is the Exact Match Wood Floor Repair kit, which lets homeowners achieve professional results in about 10 minutes' time. The patented Exact Match system will permanently repair scratches or gouges on hardwood floors with no sanding required. The Exact Match "no sanding required" Wood Floor Repair kit includes everything needed to repair shallow or deep scratches on any color or type of wood floor. The system works in four simple steps: Fill the scratch with the epoxy, select the color from a fan-deck of color cards that matches wood floor colors, wet the card with the supplied activator solution and apply the stain from the card to the epoxy that has filled the scratch. It's quick, simple and costs a fraction of what a refinish job would cost without the mess and disturbance to your home and schedule. Previously, only two repair options were available: refinish the entire floor, or replace the board with the scratch. According to company Vice President Don Burch, with the ability to focus only on permanently repairing the scratch while leaving the rest of the floor alone, Exact Match will revolutionize the process of repairing hardwood and wood laminate floors.
