Stripping is the first step in the
Floor Care Life Cycle. Initially strip the floor to remove all existing floor finish and
seal. If the flooring is brand new, strip to remove any coatings applied at the factory.
Thorough stripping ensures starting with a clean, well prepared surface. Thoroughly
rinsing and allowing the floor to dry completes the stripping step. The floor is now ready
for the application of floor finish. Coating is the next step in the Floor Care
Life Cycle. When applying floor finish, using proper coating technique is critical to long
term, satisfactory results. Applying six thin, uniform coats and allowing adequate drying
time result in the best film formation and provide the best overall, long term
performance.
Routine Maintenance is the next step in the Floor Care Life Cycle. Routine
maintenance procedures are designed to remove dirt /foreign material from the floor.
Keeping the floor clean reduces damage from foreign material which improves the appearance
and extends the lifetime of the coating. Routine maintenance includes both dry methods
(matting, dust mopping, sweeping, burnishing) and wet methods (mopping, automatic
scrubbing).
Restoration is the next step in the Floor Care Life Cycle and is performed when
routine maintenance no longer provides the desired level of appearance. Periodic
restoration with a mop on restorer is a quick, easy and simple method of extending the
lifetime of the coating.
Scrub and Re-coat is the next step in the Floor Care Life Cycle. This process
consists of top scrubbing to remove any imbedded dirt /foreign material and re-applying
finish to renew and extend the lifetime of the coating.
