Floor Care

A properly maintained floor will reduce costly restoration.

• Routine maintenance
  Maximum floor appearance is achieved when the floor coating is clean and smooth. Soils penetrate the protective coating and cause the film to become rough, less slip resistant and less reflective. Proper routine maintenance is required to maintain the desired appearance level of the floor and to extend the time between interim and restorative maintenance procedures.
• Interim maintenance
  Interim maintenance, commonly called top scrub and re-coat, is employed when routine maintenance no longer produces the desired appearance levels, and if further deterioration occurred, the floor would require stripping. During the top scrub and re-coat process, the top, dirty layers of the floor finish are removed. Then two or more coats of finish are applied to restore the original shine of the floor.
• Restorative maintenance
  Over time, traffic and soils take their toll on the finish. When routine and interim maintenance procedures no longer produce the desired results, a procedure known as stripping and refinishing is required. The stripping procedure involves the use of specially formulated floor strippers which emulsify the soiled layers of finish. The emulsified finish is then agitated and removed, leaving the floor surface clean, film free and ready for new layers of finish.
