4. Setup and Preparation
Proper surface preparation is crucial for optimal adhesion and performance of the floor finish.
- Clear the Area: Remove all furniture, equipment, and debris from the area to be treated.
- Dust Mop: Thoroughly dust mop the floor to remove loose dirt and dust.
- Deep Scrub or Strip:
- For floors with existing finish, deep scrub with a suitable floor cleaner and green pads to remove embedded dirt and scuffs. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to dry completely.
- For heavily soiled floors or when a complete renovation is desired, strip the old finish using an appropriate floor stripper. Follow stripper manufacturer's instructions, then rinse the floor multiple times with clean water to neutralize any residue. Allow the floor to dry completely before proceeding.
- Inspect Surface: Ensure the floor is clean, dry, and free of any residue, oils, or contaminants.
- Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation in the work area.
5. Operating Instructions (Application)
Follow these steps for effective application of the floor finish:
- Shake Well: Gently shake the Envirobox before use to ensure the product is well mixed.
- Apply Thin Coats: Pour a small amount of finish directly onto the clean, dry floor or into a clean finish bucket. Apply thin, even coats using a clean, good quality finish mop or applicator.
- Even Coverage: Work in manageable sections, ensuring complete and even coverage. Avoid puddling or streaking.
- Drying Time: Allow each coat to dry completely to the touch (typically 30-60 minutes, depending on humidity and temperature) before applying the next coat.
- Number of Coats: Apply 3-5 coats for optimal gloss and durability. More coats may be applied for higher traffic areas or desired gloss levels.
