The purpose of spray buffing a
floor is to both light scrub and polish at the same time. When
spray buffing be sure to remove all heavy soil before
beginning. A burnisher with a spray buff pad should be used
when spray buffing.
Dust mop the floor to remove a
debris and dust.
Burnish the floor using a
burnishing floor pad and spray buffing compound or solution.
Dust the floor to remove
micro-particles of floor finish and dust.
Procedure:
Make sure that your floor has
been prepared for scrubbing. After the floor has been prepared
vacuum or dust mop the floor to remove any dust. We recommend
that you spray your dust mop with dust mop treatment to remove
as much dust as possible. Make sure to remove anything stuck
to the floor because this will gum up or rip the floor pad.
Make sure that the floor you
are burnishing does not and will not have traffic moving
through it. Use warning signs to make sure the area where you
are scrubbing is marked out so that everyone is aware of it.
Before you spray buff any area
make sure that you have removed and dirt and debris from the
floors surface using a dust mop.
When spray buffing a floor use
a burnisher that rotates the floor pad at least 800 rpm. When
spray buffing divide the room into 4'x4' squares. Spray the
spray buff solution into the square and buff until the floor
is glossy. Solution tanks are available for some burnishers.
These burnishers are able to release the spray buff solution
into the spray buffing floor pad. Spray buff the sides of the
room first then swing the burnisher side to side towards the
center of the room. Overlap your previous path by about 6
inches with the burnisher.
After the room has been
burnished use a dust mop to remove fine particles of floor
finish and dust.
Burnishers with solution tanks
come in all sizes and styles and start in the $1700 range for
a base model. ( National Super Service makes a wide range of
burnishers at low prices.)
