EXTRACTION RESTORATION: THE PROPER WAY OF DEEP CLEANING A CARPET. THIS IS A TWO STEP PROGRAM DESIGNED TO DEEP CLEAN THE CARPET. 1) PRE-SPRAY CARPET WITH A GOOD PRE-SPRAY OR USE A NON-RESIDUE SHAMPOO IN A SHAMPOO TANK. AGITATE CARPET WITH A ROTARY BUFFER WITH A CARPET BRUSH. THIS LOOSENS UP THE DIRT THAT IS ON THE TOP AND DEEP IN THE CARPET. LET THE CHEMICAL SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES TO ACTUALLY BREAK UP THE DIRT AFTER YOU SCRUB. 2) USE A CARPET CLEANING MACHINE (CARPET EXTRACTOR) EXTRACT THE CARPET WITH A GOOD EXTRACTION CLEANER (LIKE THE CHEMSPEC 90) OR USE A RINSING AGENT (LIKE TEXTILE RINSE FROM CHEMSPEC OR RINSE OUT FROM CELLO). THE RINSING AID WILL FLUSH OUT ALL CHEMICALS AND DIRT FROM STEP 1 AND FROM PREVIOUS CLEANINGS.

YOU SPENT A LOT OF MONEY GETTING YOUR FLOOR "WAXED" AND KNOW YOU NEED TO MAINTAIN IT OR IT WILL START LOOKING LIKE YOU NEVER DID ANYTHING TO IT. "WAXED" IS THE WRONG WORD SINCE VERY SELDOM DO WE USE WAX ON COMMERCIAL TILE FLOORS ANYMORE. WE USE A POLYMER COATING THAT WE CALL "FLOOR FINISH".
FLOOR FINISH CLEANING: ALWAYS SWEEP OR DUST MOP THE FLOOR BEFORE
CLEANING. ALWAYS USE A NEUTRAL CLEANER TO CLEAN FLOOR FINISH. IF IT DOESN'T SAY
NEUTRAL THAN IT ISN'T. DON'T USE MR CLEAN, SIMPLE GREEN, TOP JOB, SPIC AND SPAN
AND OTHERS UNLESS THEY SAY NEUTRAL ON THE BOX. A NON-NEUTRAL CLEANER MAY DULL
AND EVEN STRIP THE FLOOR FINISH FROM THE FLOOR. YOU NEED A MOP BUCKET WITH
RINGER, A MOP HANDLE AND MOP HEAD. IF YOU HAPPEN TO USE THE MOP BUCKET FOR
STRIPPING YOU MUST THOROUGHLY CLEAN THE BUCKET OF ALL STRIPPER RESIDUE. DO NOT
USE A MOP THAT WAS USED FOR STRIPPING TO CLEAN A FLOOR. IF YOU HAVE A LARGE AREA
SUCH AS A SUPERMARKET TO CLEAN YOU SHOULD USE A AUTO SCRUBBER WHICH WILL MAKE
YOUR CLEANING A LOT EASIER.
BUFFING & RESTORING: ALWAYS CLEAN THE FLOOR BEFORE BUFFING OR BURNISHING
THE FLOOR. SPRAY BUFFING CONSISTS OF A SPRAY BUFF CHEMICAL, A FLOOR BUFFER OF
175 RPM OR 300 RPM AND A FLOOR PAD MADE FOR BUFFING. TO SPRAY BUFF YOUR LIGHTLY
MIST THE SPRAY BUFF IN FRONT OF THE BUFFER AND YOU BUFF THAT AREA UNTIL THE
SPRAY BUFF IS WORKED INTO THE FLOOR AND A SHINE APPEARS. MOP ON RESTORING USES A
SIMILAR CHEMICAL TO THE BUFFING CHEMICAL BUT IT IS APPLIED BY MIXING THE
SOLUTION IN A BUCKET WITH WATER AND MOPPING THE SOLUTION ONTO THE FLOOR. YOU LET
THE FLOOR DRY AND USE A HIGH SPEED BURNISHER OF 1500 RPM OR MORE WITH A
BURNISHING PAD TO SHINE THE FLOOR. THEIR ARE ALSO PASTES THAT CAN BE USED WITH
BURNISHERS THAT YOU PLACE A RIBBON OF THE CHEMICALS IN FRONT OF A BURNISHER AND
WALK THE BURNISHER UP AND DOWN THE AREA THAT NEEDS TO BE SHINED.
