Troubleshooting

Polish is not drying evenly.

Ensure the floor was properly cleaned and free of residue before application. Apply a thinner, more even coat.

Floor is still dull after application.

The floor may need additional cleaning or the existing damage is too significant. Consider a second application after the first coat has dried or consult a professional for heavily damaged floors.

Polish leaves streaks.

Use a clean applicator and avoid applying too much polish in one area. Work in a consistent direction and ensure an even spread.
