Spray Buff Floors to a Sparkling Shine
|

Shiny, clean floors are a sign that your staff takes good care
of the entire building. Spray buffing floors is an excellent way
to preserve a floor's high gloss finish and extend the length of
time between stripping floors.
To spray buff, first move any furniture, mats, rugs or other
obstacles in the work area. Then put up wet floor or caution
signs. Remove any stickers, gum, or labels with a putty knife.
Dust mop and then wet mop the floor with a neutral cleaner.
Remove black heel marks as you wet mop. Begin spray buffing by
carefully spraying a small amount of solution on the floor,
directly in front of your machine. In the beginning of the
process the floor will look smeared and dull. Make two to three
passes with the high speed machine and the shine will return.

is to use a minimum amount of solution on
the floor - more isn't better. Wherever you see a black mark,
spray that area lightly. The real trick to spray buffing is not
letting the solution dry out; buffing must be done while your
solution is still moist.
Do not leave the machine in one place for too long or the floor
finish will burn. Remember, you are using a 1500-2500 rpm
machine so if you keep it in one place you can leave a ring from
the pad, and will have to scrub/recoat in order to repair the
ring. Also watch for high spots on the floor because if you're
using an aggressive pad you can remove finish very quickly.
Always make sure that your pads are clean before buffing the
floor.
Dust mop the floor after you have finished buffing. This will
remove any dust or debris that may have

buffing. Any furniture, file cabinets, rugs or mats that were
removed can now replaced. Remove your caution or wet floor
signs. The last step is to clean the equipment so it is ready
the next time you need it.
The floors in your office buildings can keep their high gloss
appearance through spray buffing. These clean, shiny floors are
a positive reflection on you and your cleaning staff.
