Shaw Cornerstone II - Sun Glow SW789-01175
Bring warmth and natural radiance to your home with Sun Glow, a colorway in Shaw's Cornerstone II collection. Wide 7.48-inch planks display honey-gold and light brown hues with high color variation for an inviting yet sophisticated floor. Wirebrushing accentuates the white-oak grain while micro-beveled edges provide subtle definition. A UV aluminum-oxide finish shields the surface, allowing the warm tones to shine through while resisting wear.
Engineered for stability, Sun Glow combines a 3/8-inch profile with a 1.2 mm veneer to handle fluctuations in temperature and humidity. Random lengths from 15.74 to 74.8 inches replicate the appearance of traditional sawn boards. High variation ensures each plank is unique, delivering an organic look that works with both rustic and modern design schemes.

Installation, Use & Care
Sun Glow can be installed using a variety of methods to suit different substrates. When floating, use an approved underlayment and maintain expansion gaps around the room perimeter. For glue-down installations, use manufacturer-recommended adhesives. Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove grit, damp mop with clean water and avoid wax or oil soaps that can dull the UV-cured finish. Felt pads on furniture and mats at entrances help preserve the surface.
The golden tones and durable construction make Shaw Cornerstone II Sun Glow ideal for kitchens, family rooms and other spaces where a warm, welcoming hardwood floor is desired.
