Start by sweeping up large debris and hard-to- reach areas with a broom.

Step 3: Gum Removal
Scrape up any chewing gum or attached labels with a razor scraper.

Step 4: Dust Mop
Using a clean dust mop, sweep entire floor. Be sure to consolidate all soil for immediate disposal.

Step 5: Wet Floor Signs
Place “Wet Floor” signs at each end of your work area.

Step 6: Auto-Scrub
Auto-scrub the floor with a red pad using 2 oz. per gallon (1:64) solution of Citrus Scrub 'N Shine (#525) floor restorer.

Step 7: Trail Mopping
