VCT Floor Stripping, Sealing & Waxing for Addison Buildings

Here is a little insider knowledge: vinyl composition tile does not really shine on its own. What you see on a gleaming hallway is the floor finish sitting on top. That finish is great at protecting the tile, but over time it gets scratched, scuffed and gradually yellowed, and grime gets locked in between the layers. Once that happens, mopping simply cannot bring it back. The fix is a strip and wax. Addison Commercial Cleaners removes the old finish down to bare tile using stripping solution and a floor machine, picks up the residue, then rinses the floor clean. Once the tile is dry, we roll on a sealer, then build up thin layer after thin layer of finish, waiting each time until the previous one sets. A high-speed burnish at the end firms up the surface and brings out a deep gloss. Since nobody wants a hallway roped off during the workday, we schedule this for nights or weekends. Churches with fellowship halls, schools with long corridors and offices with busy breakrooms all tend to see the biggest difference, and regular burnishing between strips keeps the shine around much longer.
