My tile was Quarry tile and survived all the chemicals I threw at it…very durable…once the wax is stripped off/you will need to mop several times to get the chemical off the tile…any white spots I had left was stubborn wax that needed a little more elbow grease. Whatever you use/test it first…let it sit on the wax as long as needed before stripping…the longer the better…for light wax stripping you can use any of the household brands available at your box store too… I tried several chemicals for the heavy stripping and found “adhesive remover” (found in the tile section of your box store) worked best overall for getting the wax off quickly/completely…commercial grade wax remover worked good but not as fast. For less stripping power you can use the green or white colored scrub pad. Try a small inconspicuous area of your tile first…that way if anything goes wrong (scratching/staining/damage) you can adjust you technique…for heavy wax/dirt I used the black scrub pad. Burnish between coats with #100 grit sand screen disc and tack rag Which pads are good to stip a tile floor and then wax it?ĭepends on your tile. Apply finish according to manufacturer’s recommendations.Ħ. Sweep and vacuum the floor, then tack rag THOROUGHLY.ĥ. Place a #80 sand screen disc under the brown strip pad.

However, polyurethane coatings are generally very durable and look good for a long time – try a thorough cleaning before refinishing the polyurethane coating to see if the luster can be restored.ġ. The procedure is not designed to totally remove the old polyurethane, but smooth out imperfections and prime the floor for a new fresh coating. Sandscreening is ideal for refinishing the polyurethane coating on hard wood floors. I hope this helps! Do you need a screen kit for removing urethane coating on hardwood floors? The machine is heavy, but that adds the needed weight for deep cleaning that smaller units will just lightly brush over, making them almost useless. Its a GREAT machine, and none like it that I have seen. That being said, I am still using the first one, and it still works great. They do flatten or spin out, or will soon. If you don’t want that entire kit, just spend the money on the black brushes. The machine is WONDERFUL for cleaning tile and epoxy floors that have embedded dirt. I have not tried that yet, but will soon. The kit comes to clean carpet with a dry solution. No brushes came with the machine, but I purchased, the Oreck Orbital Complete Clean value Kit, I think its like $139 on Amazon, but gives you two brushes-Orange, which I found too rough for most applications, but outside decks, bare concrete etc., the Black brush was perfect for carpets, epoxy floors and tile. Each surface will need to be evaluated for an appropriate cleaning solution and pad for the Oreck. For decks it will be necessary to know what the surface is: composite, pressure treated, painted.
