2005

Is the aluminum oxide used in the finishing process of the engineered flooring safe?
I'm concerned with the health of safety issue of aluminum oxide.

A quick safety briefing is do not wear,eat,drink, breath or smoke any chemical and you will be fine. Aluminum oxide is only bad if you breathe a lot of very very fine particles. So if you sand or saw it, wear one of those cheap particle masks like the dentists use.
