Mr. Delacruze told me that the present carpet will be removed and the Stairs will need durable and long lasting finish. He told me that the Stairs will not be covered with carpet any more and the finish needs to withstand all the traffic. Having this on my mind, I suggest triple layer of the best varnish on the market. I also noticed that the surface to be treated is double the size of the doors. Still, I need to work from the erected scaffold to reach all carved side EFTA00631929 decorations of the steps.
