1. Tape off area to be recoated
2. Pick up mats and moveable obstructions
3. Dust mop floor, removing, with blade/scraper, gum and labels from floor.
4. Fill autoscrubber with Neutral Cleaner (2oz/gal)
   For heavy, greasy build up, or dirty floor use Degreaser vs neutral cleaner, 2-4 ounces per gallon of cold water.
5. Attach Blue Scrub pad to your autoscrubber
   DOUBLE SCRUB: Two/2 pass method to deep clean the floor.
   On first pass: Apply solution (through scrubber) only, pad down. Do not use vacuum, squeegee up. Let the solution set and “work”on the floor for 5 minutes. While waiting, start detailing edges & black marks. On second pass: Drop squeegee, pad down, vacuum up solution.
6. In areas where your autoscrubber cannot reach:
   Apply Neutral Cleaner solution with mop/bucket and allow to set for 5 minutes. Scrub floor with single disk machine and an attached blue scrub pad. If no single disk machine is available, doodlebug the area and rinse floor w/mop and bucket. Rinse floor 2 times to ensure cleanliness.  You can use a squeegee to pull solution to an area that your scrubber or wet dry vacuum can pick up.
7. Rinse the floor and detail mop edges and scrubber trails with mop/bucket using cold water only. Test the floor if it is chalky or has residue rinse again with cold water.
    At this point, you may want to take time to burnish your floor (White Pad) before recoating. This serves to better dry your floor and bring up Additional shine that will really come through after your  recoat job! And don’t forget…dust mop after bumishing.
