Product
Specific Performance Requirements
Slip
Resistance
Floor finish products shall have a static coefficient of friction [SCOF]
of at least 0.5 as measured by either ASTM D2047-99 or UL Method 410.
Note:
Green Finish, Green Clean and Green Restore are all UL Classified as
to slip resistance.
Additional
Performance Requirements
Each product shall perform effectively, as measured
by the following standard test methods:
Removability:
The floor finish and compatible stripper shall achieve a removal ease
rating of “good” as measured by ASTM D1792-82, Standard Test
Method for Long-Term Removability Properties of Floor Polishes. In the
case of a floor finish and stripper proposed for certification together,
they should be tested together, with the candidate stripper replacing
the ASTM standard-defined stripper.

The floor finish shall perform as well as a nationally recognized product
of its type in its category as measured by ASTM D3206-92 Standard Test
Method for Soil Resistance of Floor Polishes.
Detergent
Resistance:
The floor finish shall demonstrate
minimal deterioration by achieving a detergent resistance rating of
“very good”, as measured by ASTM D3207-92 Standard Test Method
for Detergent Resistance of Floor Polish Films. The floor finish shall
be tested using a GS-37 certified floor cleaner at the recommended dilution
rate for routine floor maintenance as listed on packaging or the ASTM
cleaning solution specified in ASTM D3207-9.
Products
shall be tested as used and, if diluted, products shall be diluted with
water from the cold tap at no more than 50 °F.
