In the hands of a professional sanding with 100 to 150 grit paper or screen and a buffer makes sense. In the hands of an amature I would use less aggressive Scotch Brite pads. The color of the pad determines how aggressive it cuts and they come in black, green and white. Practice behind the couch and keep the buffer moving. Use a dustmask and vacuum to get all the dust out of the cracks before varnishing. Inside corners must be done by hand and you will need to remove all the shoe molding first. Of course, as everyone knows, drinking cold beer the night before will prevent the dust from sticking to your skin.
