Factors to Take Into Account When Choosing Diamond Polishing Pads


The look of an establishment’s flooring is essential in the property’s overall cleanliness and appeal. A dirty floor can make your visiting clients uncomfortable, while a shiny one can make them feel warmly invited and accommodated. This is why it’s necessary to keep your property’s flooring not just clean, but also shiny.
Diamond polishing pads make shine possible. A color-coded set of pads polishes various types of flooring, such as concrete, natural stone, and terrazzo. Cost-effective because you need not purchase chemicals, these pads consist of microscopic diamonds that can bring a dull, worn-out floor back to its former luster.
This type of polishing pad is available in different sizes, colors, and levels of aggressiveness. It’s important that you know what to use for the specific type of flooring in your establishment. Read more from this blog: http://bit.ly/2lyjQmy

A Step-by-Step Guide on How to Use Carpet Bonnets for Cleaning Floors


Carpet bonnets are an essential tool for dealing with moisture and surface dirt on bare floors or carpets. Made of a fiber blend of rayon, polyester, and cotton, this cleaning tool is attached to the rotor of a cleaning machine, forming a body that can absorb huge amounts of moisture while lifting dirt from the surface.
Bonnets are effective, but only when used correctly. Follow these tips to use yours properly.
Preparing the Machine
Carpet bonnets will only work if attached properly to the floor buffer. You must lean the machine back before attaching the bonnets to the pad driver assembly. To clean the floor smoothly, make sure that they fit the machine in use. We are happy to recommend the right bonnet for your machine.
Pre-Cleaning the Area
Avoid bonneting the floor without preparing the area and clearing it of any obstacles that might obstruct your machine. Basically, remove pieces of furniture and other items that may get in the way of cleaning. Use a vacuum to remove as much dirt and debris as possible before you start to bonnet. Read more from this blog: http://bit.ly/2lNZuYL

Why Use Floor Buffing Pads and Other Remedies for Concrete Floors


Concrete is one of the most durable and dependable materials around, which is why so many builders and construction experts use concrete when laying basement floors. You can now opt for a range of concrete dyes that add color to those floors and stamps that add texture to the surface, but you may wonder how to best remove stains and clean those floors. With floor scrubber pads and some other basic supplies, you can make those concrete floors look sparkling and new again.
Removing Stains
Ordinary bleach is often strong enough to remove most surface stains. While wearing gloves, apply a diluted combination of bleach and cold water to the stain. Use floor scrubber pads to scrub the stain with the bleach before rinsing with clean water. If that combo doesn’t work on the stain, use equal parts flour and hydrogen peroxide. Apply the mixture to the concrete and let sit for several hours or even overnight. Use a plastic scraper or chisel to scrape the dried mixture off the floor. Read more from this blog: http://bit.ly/2lNRgju
