Title: How to Strip Floors faster and safer
Stripping floor finish is still one of the toughest and unpleasant jobs for the floor care technician today. Often, it requires the use of harsh strippers containing corrosive or toxic ingredients to get the job done effectively.
There is a belief that strippers must have a strong odor and be corrosive to be effective. However, new ingredients are being incorporated into floor stripping products that make them safer without sacrificing performance.
In this video, we will show a simple demonstration to debunk the myth that a stripper must be hazardous to be effective.
The first step is to prepare several VCT tiles by repeatedly applying a mark on the tile using a permanent marker.
Then, the applications of 5 successive coats of a 25% solids floor finish are uniformly applied to each tile. These coats are allowed to cure a minimum of one week before testing.
Next, we prepare stripping solutions, Multi-Clean Ultra Stripper at a 1:4 dilution ratio, Multi-Clean JOLT at a 1:12 ratio, and finally, a commercially available butyl based stripper at a 1:4 ratio.
Now, let’s check the pH of these stripping solutions. In general, corrosive solutions are those that are identified with a pH of 11.5 or greater. A corrosive solution will cause chemical burns to skin after relatively short exposure.
Let’s see which product will penetrate the five coats of finish more effectively.
To get started we apply 6 drops of stripping solution to each tile, then start the timer. We will wait two minutes and then gently wipe of the stripping solution with a paper towel.
The result, the non-corrosive, low odor strippers completely stripped the 5 coats of finish. The corrosive stripper left a significant amount of build up.
Multi-Clean Ultra Stripper is a concentrated, low odor stripper that is as powerful as it is safe. It quickly penetrates and lifts heavy finish buildup. It works on all floor finishes and has earned the Green Seal Certification.
JOLT is the sister product to Ultra Stripper, which is a super concentrated version that is packaged in a pre-portioned quart container. No measuring needed, just fill a mop bucket with water and pour in a bottle of JOLT.
