Someone Painted the Wood Floor On My Porch

[chopper]

Always been sort of curious what is under the indoor-outdoor carpet on the porch of a 1920s Bungalow we own. Pulled up a corner today, found light blue latex paint. Grabbed some paint stripper at Ace and laid, eventually, two coats down in a corner. Scraped it up and found some really nice seemingly maple or oak flooring, probably original. Nice grain, etc.

The porch is quite large and this would be a huge huge job if I had to do it all on my knees. Plus the stripper seems to be about the same consistency and corrosiveness of napalm.

I wonder what a contractor would get to strip, sand and refinish it.
