- Do Test for Wax or Sealer first. Get permission from homeowner first.
- Mix-up spray bottle with stripper and water mixture, use small amount (a bead) on inconspicuous area of floor (that the homeowner agreed upon).
- Have dwell time of 10 minutes.
- Wipe away the stripper and water mixture, if there’s any remaining marks, foggy white color change, violet appearance, there is wax and/or sealer on the wood. If you put your paint scraper on it, you should be able to scrape off the wax. Boom! Your test says, “Yes, there is Wax!”
- Stickiness means wax. Smoothness most often means no wax.
What to do if you’re in the middle of a job and your newly cleaned floor looks milky or streaky?
There is a high probability that you have some wax or some other acrylic on that floor. The biggest enemy to proper floor prep is a wax or acrylic product. Even if the homeowner swears up and down that they “Never” use Acrylic Wax. Its highly probable that you are dealing with a floor with wax or acrylic.
Use proper floor preparation for floors with Wax/Acrylic. Ask yourself these questions:
- Did you strip the floor? If Not, strip (or re-strip) the floor. Do it again.
- Let’s talk about your floor cleaning product. Is it neutral Ph? Do you know that for certain? Reclean the floor with Neutral Cleaner/Water mixture, Clean/PowerScrub and extract. Sometimes, you may be unaware that the cleaning product you are using is actually a higher Ph product that could/will interfere with future sealing and refinishing.
- Follow-up with wet microfiber mop with water.
- What about your neutralizing? Did you neutralize the floor BEFORE applying Granny’s or anything else? If Not, use a Neutral Cleaner/Water mixture, then extract. Note: You cannot add Grannys or any other product without thoroughly neutralizing the high-alkaline stripper.
- Did you dry the floor- bone dry for 20 minutes with fans? If not, put fans on it and dry thoroughly BEFORE you put Granny’s on it. Note: No product, including Granny’s should ever be applied to a damp or wet floor.
