FAQs
What type of floors can I use this polish on?
This polish is designed for non-porous floors such as Vinyl, Thermoplastic, Linoleum, Rubber, Asphalt, Sealed wood, Marble, and Terrazzo.
Can this polish be used on natural stone like marble?
Yes, it can be used on marble as long as the surface is sealed and non-porous.
How many coats of polish are recommended?
For optimal protection and shine, 2-3 coats are generally recommended, with each coat fully dried before applying the next.
What is the best way to clean the floor after applying the polish?
Use a pH-neutral cleaner and a damp mop. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water, which can damage the polish layer.
How long does the protective layer last?
The lifespan of the protective layer depends on traffic and maintenance, but the ultra hard-wearing formula is designed for long-lasting durability.
Is this product suitable for use in areas with high foot traffic?
Yes, its ultra hard-wearing and protective qualities make it well-suited for high-traffic areas.
What is the drying time between coats?
Drying time typically ranges from 20-30 minutes per coat, but this can vary based on ambient temperature and humidity.
Troubleshooting
Uneven finish or streaks
Ensure the applicator is saturated evenly and applied in consistent strokes. Check that the floor is perfectly dry and free from dust or debris between coats.
Polish not drying properly
Verify room temperature and humidity levels are within recommended ranges. Ensure coats are applied thinly; thick coats can prolong drying times significantly.
Poor adhesion or peeling
The floor surface may not have been properly cleaned and degreased prior to application, or the surface may be porous. Ensure the floor is completely free of old polish or contaminants.
Lack of shine
Check if enough coats were applied and if they were allowed to cure adequately. Ensure the floor was clean before application, as dirt can dull the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This polish is compatible with all non-porous floors, including Vinyl, Thermoplastic, Linoleum, Rubber, Asphalt, Sealed wood, Marble, and Terrazzo. Do not use on unsealed or porous surfaces.
Setup & Application:
- Ensure the floor is thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and completely dry before application.
- Apply a thin, even coat of the polish using a clean applicator pad, working in one direction.
- Allow the first coat to dry completely (typically 20-30 minutes, depending on conditions).
- Apply subsequent coats (2-3 recommended for optimal protection) in a crosswise direction to the previous coat, allowing each to dry fully.
- For best results, allow the final coat to cure for at least 24 hours before allowing heavy traffic.
Care: Regular cleaning with a pH-neutral cleaner and dust mopping will maintain the shine. For deeper cleaning or recoating, the floor may need to be stripped of old polish layers before reapplying.
