You will probably need to sand the floors and you want to be sure anything you use on them is recommended for floors. I'm not sure polyshades is.
Minwax Polyshades is not recommended for floors by Minwax. This is their answer: PolyShades® is not recommended for use on floors. Instead, stain with Minwax® Wood Finish™ and topcoat with Minwax® Super Fast-Drying Polyurethane for Floors or Minwax® Fast-Drying Polyurethane.
