It
is recommended that no floor finish or sealers be used on our
Rubber Flooring Material.
Gloss level will depend on frequency of buffing. |
STEP1
STRIPPING AS NEEDED
New Rubber Flooring should be thoroughly machine stripped and scrubbed
with scrubbing pad* and stripper. Use stripper manufacturer's recommended
stripping procedure. |
OR |
General
Cleaning
Clean floor thoroughly with a good grade of mild detergent cleaner.
Use cleaner manufacturer's recommended cleaning procedure. |
|
STEP
2
Neutralize stripper or cleaner with minimum 10% solution of liquid
chlorine bleach. Vacuum, mop or squeegee the neutralized solution
from floors. Rinse floor surface with a solution of 10% liquid chlorine
bleach in warm water
(may need two or more rinses). |
STEP
3
Once floor is dry, buff floor using an Ultra High Speed Buffer with
red* pad. (A light mist of clear water ahead of buffer often helps
to develop sheen.) After sheen is developed, a higher gloss may
be obtained with white* super polishing pad. (Note: New Rubber Flooring
will require more frequent buffing until a high sheen is acquired.). |
STEP
4
Dry dust or mop floors (do not use dusters or mops treated with
mineral oil or other petroleum products). |
STEP
5
Periodically, mop floors using 5% solution of liquid chlorine bleach
in water. |
ALL
