I have a 38 year old house with 3×6 tongue and groove pine flooring spanning beams that are 7′ on center. The floor boards have shrunk up so much that there is up to 3/8″ gap between the boards. I would like to sand and refinish the floor but don’t know what to do about the cracks. Does anyone know what is on the market that I can fill these cracks with? I’m talking cracks between every board here 1/16″ to 3/8″.
