I was thinking some transparent filler maybe, and grinding/polishing it down? There’s some varnish on the wood anyway.

    I’ve heard & seen vinyl and linoleum used interchangeably over a lifetime, and I don’t believe the original recipe is still manufactured so far as I have seen.

    Even if it is still being manufactured, the vast majority of people talking about linoleum seem to mean vinyl. I’m going with the average vernacular, and still stand by all my original points re: vinyl.

      Pretty bizarre if people do this. I’ve never heard it to mean anything but linoleum.

      But a lot of people in the US use the word “turf” to specify not turf (i.e. artificial turf), so there’s no reason for words to mean things.

        Agreed, if linoleum is in fact what was meant I have no issue with it. But even in my own home as a young lad, salesman used “linoleum” repeatedly and they rolled out a huge stinking sheet of vinyl in my kitchen.

        I’ll never forget or forgive how horrible it wound up being.
