I'm not an expert on installing and finishing hardwood flooring, but I have actually done quite a bit of it over the years.
If a person has no experience finishing it, I would strongly recommend having a professional do it. You can watch and learn a great deal so that on future projects you can do it yourself.
There are four different sanders that are used in the process.
1. A drum sander for the initial leveling of the wood.
2. A disk sander for doing the edges of the room that the drum sander can't access.
3. A finish sander to get to the corners that are inacessible with the drum and edge sanders.
4. A large buffer type sander for finishing the wood in preparation of staining (if desired), and applying the finish coats, usually polyurethane.
You can really mess up a floor if you don't select the right sandpaper grits and use the sanders properly.
If I were you, I'd find someone with experience to do the work or to show you how to do it.
