I'm replacing the flooring throughout my neglected 90-year-old house as part of a complete remodel. The house is on a raised foundation and has a few layers of flooring. carpet on top, various vinyl tile flooring under that (depending on the room) which covers 3/8" hardwood at the bottom with another layer of plank wood subflooring below that. My original plan was to remove the carpet and vinyl and refinish the hardwood. That isn't going to work (so please don't reprimand me), as the hardwood wasn't very good stuff to begin with, and it has suffered a lot of moisture damage in places from a constantly wet crawlspace over the years, as well as subterranean termites and dry rot. Believe me, I would if I could. It would be cheaper and preferred. My new plan is to remove all carpet and as much of the vinyl tiles that will come up, lay down some Aquabar "B" underlayment, and then cover the hardwood with a floating LVP floor that has a cork backer (Coretec HD). I started with the master bedroom and closet. After moving a wall in the closet and tearing out a small patch of hardwood that was bad in the back corner due to termite damage in the subflooring, I'm left with a surface that doesn't seem that level. I wanted to lay some self-leveling compound, but the only one that I can find that works on a hardwood and vinyl (I think?) surfaces is Feather Finish. My first run at Feather Finish showed it to be super thick and barely workable for about 5 minutes. Nothing like a self leveling compound. Here are the photos of the floor in the closet: [url]https://goo.gl/photos/CndJyMN7hfngcHjL8[/url] Any advice would be hugely welcomed. Thanks.

I just found out that California has banned the Verathane oil-based polyurethane that I was planning to use on the plywood floor in my shed. Does anyone know of a Calif legal product that's as durable and long lasting as the oil-based polyurethane and gives the flooring an "amber tint"?
