Okay, so I have a dining room with black cutback adhesive on old unfinished 2 inch tongue and groove oak flooring. I have been removing most of the cutback through the miserable methodology of applying heat and moisture then scraping and scrubbing it away. Most of it is coming up, but I kind of like the look of the remnants that the first pass isn't taking up. So, I have come to ask if any of you have ever applied stain and then finish to wood floors with some cutback on them. Will it work? Will the stain cover it adequately?
TLDR: Can I stain and finish wood floors with remnants of cutback adhesive on them?
Photo is not my floor.

So, no?

Stain won't stick to jack diddly. It doesn't stick to surfaces- it's absorbed. You can stain over the adhesive all you want, but you'll have to go back and wipe it off after it's dry or it will come unfixed when you do the topcoat which is bad.

Okay, but the topcoat will still cover it? That was my area of concern. I know the stain won't be absorbed into glue. I was more worried the topcoat wouldn't set properly over it.
