Solid Hardwood, Engineered and Laminate Flooring - hardwood floor finish

I have 3/4" red oak flooring finished with a satin, water based polyurethane. The floor is 20 years old and is still in very good shape except for some scuffs here and there from sliding furniture around.
We are renovating a couple of rooms and would like to clear up the scuffs and change the floor finish to a semi gloss. Short of having the floors refinished professionaly, is there a DIY friendly product available to spruce up the floor?

Not really, unless you feel you can handle a sander, and apply finish.

You may want to try putting a coat of finish on top of the old after you clean up the scuffs if they're easy to clean. If these are gouges into teh surface, then you probably want to sand them out (requiring a refinish of the whole floor)

Touch ups of scuffs on an already finished floor will stand out. Most of today's hardwood floor finishes are polyurethane. Older floor finishes were likely either varnish or shellac. Floor will require sanding to remove old finish if you desire a urethane finish. If you can determine what type of finish you have and floors are in otherwise good condition, you can do a 'screen' and coat with the same type of finish. One can not simply apply a new coat of finish over an old one without preparing the surface to accept a new coat of compatible finish.
