How to use
Read and understand the MSDS before use
Always pre-test in an inconspicuous location.
Dilutions
- Dilute at 1:10 for removing light build-ups
- Dilute at 1:4 for heavy build-up and UHS burnished coatings.
Application
- Sweep area thoroughly to remove any soiling that could damage the floor if caught under scrubbing equipment
- Apply solution liberally to floor area with a cotton mop ensuring that the area is thoroughly wet. (Always work in small controllable area sizes)
- Allow at least 5 minutes dwell time and then agitate with low speed rotary scrubber or auto-scrubber fitted with a black, brown or high productivity pad.
- Be careful to ensure that the area does not “dry out” on the surface.
- After scrubbing, pick up slurry and rinse thoroughly with clean water to ensure that all stripper and sealer residues are removed.
- Allow floor to dry before with the restoration process and re-strip any areas that may still have polish build-up or that were missed in the first application.
