Choose your stain from the DIY store. and get advice at the same time as to what you should apply it with. Start at the farthest point from your doorway and work backwards, so you don't find yourself marooned!
It is difficult process so use light stain
You have to sand it and then add the stain
You need to sand down the floor take all marks off if you want them off because with the stain you will see them more. Then after you sand it vacuumed really well .then start staining from the farthest corner and work your way out of the room. Let dry as long as the can says .If it’s not the color you want after it’s dry re stain starting the same way wearing socks only on the floor they might get stain on them start in the corner . After it’s dry totaly you need to polyurethane the floor to protect it and then every other year maybe touch up with Polly.
Keep in mind that staining a wooden floor requires a certain amount of physical agility to bend, crawl on your knees, and to reach out at awkward angles. It may not be a suitable diy project for everyone.
Clean the wood floor well, let dry. Sand with fine grit sandpaper, clean, let dry, then apply the color stain you want.

There are a few things to keep in mind when staining wood floors. First, you'll need to sand the floor to create a smooth surface. Next, choose the right type of stain for your flooring. Water-based stains are typically best for lighter woods, while oil-based stains work well for darker woods. Once you've chosen your stain, apply it evenly across the floor and allow it to dry completely before walking on it.
