Dutch term or phrase: boenmachine

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?

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(s):

Hard Floor Polisher, Cleaner Floor Polisher Wood, Floor Scrubbing Machines, Bissell Carpet Cleaner
automatic wood polishing machine
