Try rinsing to remove any soap from the wood. Try to minimize the
time the wood is in contact with water. Use towels and a fan to dry.
If that helped, you can repeat the rinsing. Allow the wood to dry for
a week and sand smooth. Water swells the fibers and raises the grain.
Protect the floor (butchers paper, rugs, etc) until a finish is
applied.
