Usage

DIRECTIONS FOR USE Read the entire label before using this product.

FLOOR POLISH REMOVAL PROCEDURE: NOTE: During the stripping process floors can become extremely slippery. Please use caution.

  1. To prepare the floor for the cleaning process vacuum or sweep loose dirt from the floor and pay special attention to corners. 
  2. Always mix Dissolver™ 1:5 with cool water for best results.
  3. Use a pump sprayer or Dirt Dragon™ solution wand to apply a thin layer of Dissolver™ Solution to the floor. Be careful not to apply too much solution. 
  4. Work in small areas around 50 sq. ft. 
  5. Let the Dissolver™ Solution dwell for no more than 1 minute of contact time. Dissolver™ will begin to emulsify the floor polish.
  6. Scrub the area with the Dirt Dragon™ and diluted Dissolver™ and remove the emulsified stripper solution. 
  7. Manual agitation with a non-abrasive scrubbing pad may be needed for heavy floor polish buildup.
  8. Repeat this process in small areas until all floor polish has been removed before moving on to the next area.
  9. Retest the floor with the Acrylic Wax Test Kit to make sure that all floor polish has been removed from the floor. 
  10. Rinse the floor with the Dirt Dragon™ and Squeaky™ to neutralize the floor and prepare it for coating. 
  11. Allow the floor to dry. 
  12. Coat the floor with Hardwood Floor Refinisher.
