INSTRUCTIONS

The floor must be completely stripped

  • Step 1: Strip floors of all wax. Make sure all edges are done well.
    Next steps are done using the auto scrubber
  • Step 2: Auto scrub the floor using one large scoop of SIMIX Multi-Surface Peroxide Cleaner & Degreaser per tank of warm water. Make 4 passes using 220 diamond pads. Pick up slurry. This will start to smooth the floor and remove oxidation from years of stripping.
  • Step 3: Auto scrub floor with only 2 small scoops of SIMIX Multi-Surface Peroxide Cleaner & Degreaser per tank full-on scrubber making 4 passes using 800 diamond pads. This will smooth the floor to the point that a nice shine is present. Pick up slurry.
  • Step 4: Auto scrub floor with diamond buff and 2 small scoops of cleaner per tank make 2 passes and pick up water. Let the floor visibly dry.
    If the floor is without residue apply Simix Multi-Surface Ceramic Clearcoat.
  • Step 5: Shake Simix Multi-Surface Ceramic Clearcoat bottle well. Mix 4 parts water (use distilled or RO water) to one part coating in pump up sprayer. Spray on the floor and apply using a laundered short-looped microfiber flat mop. Rinse mop head after 500 to 1000 sq. ft. of floor in warm clean water. Apply 4 thin coats. Apply each coat after the floor dries. The coating will take from 5 to 15 minutes to dry.

Next day
Clean floor with auto scrubber. 1 large scoop per tank of warm water and diamond buff pads. Make 2 passes and pick up water. Let visibly dry.

Apply 4 – 8 coats

For maximum shine, base coating for grocery stores should be 8 to 12 coats.
The floor will increase in shine over the coming weeks with daily auto scrubbing using diamond buff pads. Try to use diamond buff pads 3x-5x per week for a maximum clean and shiny floor.
