Commercial floor stripping and waxing is the process of removing old wax build-up, dirt, and grime from a commercial floor and then reapplying a fresh layer of wax to protect and enhance its appearance. Here is a general outline of the process:

1. Preparation: Furniture and other items are removed from the floor, and the area is taped off to prevent damage.
2. Stripping: A commercial-grade floor stripper is applied to the surface of the floor to break down the old wax and any dirt and grime that may have accumulated on the surface. The solution is then agitated with a floor machine equipped with a scrubbing pad, which removes the old wax and dirt from the surface of the floor.
3. Rinsing: The floor is thoroughly rinsed with clean water to remove all residue from the stripper solution.
4. Neutralizing: A neutralizing solution is applied to the floor to remove any residual stripper and to prepare the surface for waxing.
5. Drying: The floor is allowed to air dry or is dried with floor fans or a floor machine equipped with a bonnet.
6. Waxing: A commercial-grade floor wax is applied to the surface of the floor in thin, even coats. The wax is then buffed with a floor machine equipped with a lamb’s wool pad to distribute it evenly and to provide a glossy, protective finish.

It is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions when performing floor stripping and waxing, as the process and products used may vary based on the type of flooring and the desired outcome. A professional floor care company can perform this service for you, or you can hire a trained individual to do it for you.
