Floor sealing: waterproofing Granite floors at a building site
Floor sealing demonstration done by the Tennant SA cleaning equipment team waterproofing flamed granite floors at a building site.
Floor sealing or waterproofing floors is an essential step in flamed granite floor maintenance. Not only do the floors stay clean as it repells spillage but the floors maintain a nice shine which by default provides an estetically clean environment. Floor sealing also ensure minimum maintenance and maximum durability.
If the proper processes, floor sealers and strippers are not used, it could have disasterous effects - as a local building contractor discovered recently.
The floors at a prominent building site were sealed and coated many times, but never to the satisfaction of the client.The sealed floors were dull and did not repell spillages which lead to non-compliance to the basic requirements from the customer: minimum maintenance, maximum durability.
Tennant South Africa, floor sealer suppliers in South Africa, was called in to assist. The Tennant South Africa team requested a demonstration area from the client and found after investigation that the first step would be to remove all the layers of previously applied floor sealant and other products that were applied, in order for the newly applied floor sealer to adhere properly to the surface when applied.
The second step entailed choosing the correct floor sealer for flamed granite floors. In this case, the use of a polyurethane sealer was recommended.
The third step entailed proper procedures that had to be used. The floor sealer was applied allowing sufficient drying time between the two layers. This is a common mistake many customers make when sealing floors.
This combination of correct floor sealer, correct procedures followed and proper removal of all previously applied foor sealer lead to a happy customer with only one comment: "The floor is too shiny now!"
