1.Dust Mopping

Dust mopping is recommended before wet cleaning to remove debris and large particles of soil, sand, and grit.

2

2.Damp mopping / Auto-scrubbing

Floors should be mopped daily or more often depending on soil levels. To damp mop, start with a clean mop head and fresh solution. Clean least-soiled areas first. Auto-scrubbing is more efficient than damp mopping and can save you time and money.

3.Low Speed Buffing / High Speed Burnishing

4.Scrub & Recoat

Scrub & Recoat monthly or as needed when preventative maintenance (burnish, spray buff, restore) does not leave floor to desired appearance (slight traffic lane wear, scratches, soiling, etc.).

5

5.Strip

Floors should be stripped when they show heavy traffic lane wear, heavy soiling, heavy build-up along edges, yellowing, and deep scratches or finish damage.

6

6.Refinish

Apply floor finish following deep scrub & recoat or stripping operations.
