Default Refinish wood floor 3200

Floor is looking pretty bad for years of abuse. Time to refinish!
I looked up the Maxum recommendation in the owners manual, but the mfg., doesn't appear to around any longer.
Have any of you refinished the wood floor in your 3200?
If so, what did you use?
I realize, I must lightly sand, (220?) first, then coat with? sand, rinse repeat..

Thanks all!

Where is there wood flooring in a 3200? Thought the cabin was all carpet from the factory.

Looks like maple, but honestly, not my specialty

I replaced my entire cabin floor in my 3200 with vinyl planking, so I remember taking a look at the wood flooring that was there before and you can probably treat it similarly to any hardwood floor - sanding (would recommend a floor hand-orbital sander) then stain if you prefer, and polyurethane it, 2 coats if oil based, at least 5 coats if water based.

Maple, Oak, Cherry, or other hardwoods will all behave the same. Obviously vinyl would be a different story. I'd be more concerned about teak or teak and holly, as teak sawdust is very dangerous and you need to take some precautions before sanding teak (respirator, no exposed skin, etc).

Standard hardwoods can be readily sanded and finished like a piece of furniture or a floor in a house. (The floor isn't aware of where it's installed).

How do you feel about using west systems epoxy instead of poly?

I wind up replacing both the carpet and the flooring in my 3200 with vinyl planking. On this link are some of my pics.
