Step
1: Gather
Equipment
and Supplies
Consult
Materials Checklist
Step
2:
Remove tape, labels and gum with a razor scraper or putty knife. Angle
the blade so you don’t damage the finish. Sticker and label residue
can be removed with Waterless Cleaner (#1130)
or Citrus
Degreaser (#1185).
Step
3:
Dust mop the floor.
Step
4:
Mop Sport Prep™ (#1127) diluted 32 ounces per gallon (1:4)
to approximately 100 to 200 square feet of flooring. Allow five minutes
of dwell time. You should be able to cover this area before the cleaner
dries.
Step
5:
Scrub the floor with a single disk machine equipped with blue, brown
or black pads or a 150-grit screen. Heel the machine on stubborn marks.
Note: Heel with caution - you can penetrate the finish and
damage painted lines or wood.
Step
6:
Pick up scrubbed solution with an auto-scrubber, wet vacuum or mop and
bucket.
Step
7:
When the entire floor is clean, rinse thoroughly. Use Nu-Tral
Cleaner (#507) diluted 2 ounces per gallon (1:64) in an automatic-scrubber
equipped with red pads or rinse with a well-wrung mop.
Step
8:
Tack rag the floor using water-moistened, lint-free towels.
Step
9:
Inspect the floor. It should be dull and clean. Trace amounts of white
residue from the previous finish are okay. If large amounts are present,
tack the floor again.
Step
10:
Let the floor dry completely before finish application.
Note: If recoating using High Solids
Gym Finish (#234), or 40% Gym Finish (#293)
we recommend at least a four-hour dry time.
