Wax off, Wax on- Learning a new skill, STRIP AND WAX FLOORING.

The technician is buffing or stripping the wax with degreaser and a Global Foor Machine.

No, we aren’t talking about Karate but that would be pretty cool. Our cleaning technician added a new trade to their repertoire called Strip and Wax Flooring. While we usually do a lot of commercial and residential work, it is usually just carpet or upholstery. We are now able to clean, buff, AND wax hard surface floors!

What’s the Process Like?

A close friend of ours and experienced expert in the field took the time to educate our technicians on this trade. We had all the equipment on hand from another type of work we do so it just made sense to learn this! These are the steps for Strip and Wax.

1. Clean the hard floor surface.
2. Soak with water.
3. Buff or strip wax with a degreaser.
4. Wet vacuum all water.
5. Set air movers to dry the flooring.
6. Apply 3 layers of wax.

Voilà! Floors are shiny and ready to reenact the “Risky Business” dance move. We find it important to grow in our knowledge so that we can continue to help your cleaning and restoration needs.
