Dutch term

boenmachine

Dutch to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering
Bij geribd hout of indien geen boenmachine voorhanden is,

The product is a colour stain for wood - I'm not sure what 'geribd hout' is in this context, and whether a 'boenmachine' is a specific type of sander?

Peer comment(s):

agree L.J.Wessel van Leeuwen : boenen is flemish for polishing. In this context I'd go for buffer.

Of course this is only the translation of "boenmachine". You will have to pose a new question for your other term.

It depends on the exact context whether you should or not translate with "floor".
Example sentence:

Hard Floor Polisher, Cleaner Floor Polisher Wood, Floor Scrubbing Machines, Bissell Carpet Cleaner

automatic wood polishing machine
